About this listen

Sometimes, just one person can pull a whole family apart. And sometimes, it just takes one person to pull it back together.

For fans of Bridgerton, New York Times best-selling Regency-romance author Mary Balogh shows how love truly conquers all in this new Westcott family novel.

As a young man, Justin Wiley was banished by his father for mysterious reasons, but now his father is dead, and Justin has been Earl of Brandon for six years. A dark, dour man, he nonetheless takes it as his responsibility to care for his half-sister, Maria, when her mother dies. He travels to her home to fetch her back to the family seat at Everleigh Park.

Although she adored him once, Maria now loathes Justin, and her friend, Lady Estelle Lamarr, can see immediately how his very name upsets her. When Justin arrives and invites Estelle and her brother to accompany Maria to Everleigh Park to help with her distress, she begrudgingly agrees for Maria's sake.

As family secrets unravel in Maria's homecoming, Justin, too, uncovers his desire for a countess. And, while he may believe he's found an obvious candidate in the beautiful 25-year-old Lady Estelle, she is most certain that they could never make a match....

A Perfect Story

Up to Mary Balogh’s usual excellent standard. The social differences of the characters was very well portrayed in idealistic perfect terms.

A Slow and Enchanting Listen

Mary Balogh captures me once more with the voice of Rosalyn Landor. The characters are not too tedious, and the story takes quite a turn towards the end. Justin and Estelle are entertaining yet reserved in their love story. Their character arcs are relatable. I would recommend AND listen again and again!

Well worth a listen. Really enjoyed it.

My one small complaint was the introduction of so many characters in one go, I still wasn't sure by the end of the book exactly who was related to who. The narration was as excellent as usual. The plot was good with strong characters. I hope we will get to hear what happens to Bertrand.

Sad, But Beautiful.

My issue is I wanted the story to go on and on, basically thoroughly greedy!

Excellent continuation of the Westscotts

The whole series of the Wescotts stories has been interesting and gratifying to listen to. I must say that the performances of each book by Rosalyn Landor have been superb, she’s brilliant!!!

hmmm.

While I really liked the characters of Estelle and
Justin, and their journey to find love, the five million relatives (slight exaggeration) and all their names and titles became so damn tedious that I began to lose interest in the main story. And the constant repetition of all.those names and their relationship to each other ...yawn. I know how hard it is to keep everyone in the loop having written a series myself but this was beyond irritating. Not sure I'll read any more Westcott despite being a huge Mary Ballogh fan. might just re listen to Slightly Dangerous- now that's a series end worth reading over and over....

Disconnected

I still can't figure why the couple ever got together. They are both full of self pity and one dimensional.They is alot of regurgitation that gets repeated by the committee.
The tale of finding the Ricky and getting the family together is much more interesting than the so called "love Story" it is use to fill in the gaps.
Alot of preaching, good deeds and proud parents, but totally redundant and boring.
The series started off great, but as it goes along it is like "chewing the cud" just how many stomachs does one story have?
