Resumen del Editor

A woman starting over. A new house with an unexpected twist. A cape wearing butler acting as the world's worst life coach.

"Happily Ever After" wasn't supposed to come with a do-over option. But when my husband of twenty years packs up and heads for greener pastures and my son leaves for college, that's exactly what my life becomes.

Do-over.

This time, though, I plan to do things differently. Age is just a number, after all, and at forty I'm ready to carve my own path.

Eager for a fresh start, I make a somewhat unorthodox decision and move to a tiny town in the Sierra foothills. I'll be taking care of a centuries old house that called to me when I was a kid. It's just temporary, I tell myself. It'll just be for a while.

That is, until I learn what the house really is, something I never could've imagined.

Thankfully forty isn't too old to start an adventure, because that's exactly what I do. A very dangerous adventure that will change my life forever. I have a chance to start again, and this time, I make the rules.

Adapted from the novel and produced with a full cast of actors, immersive sound effects and cinematic music!

Cast has some big shoes to fill vs Nicole Poole and really did well

This series had me hooked at the first sentence. I've listened all of them so far and had to listen to the full cast adaptation. They really did do a great job and there's not background noise taking over the story. Although it really is nee-yev, not neeve. I do hope they do them all

Pleasantly Surprised

I love this series. I have all the Audio books, and now look forward to getting all the Graphic Audio Books. If I could critique on anything it would be Regards voice is more creepy, and Nicole Poole does an amazing job with all the characters, but especially Edgar and Nieve. I'm looking forward to seeing how each character progresses. K.F. Breene is an amazing author.😃

I liked the original better

I was worried about Austen voice being different but I cant stand nieve voice change. ugh

Love it

I love this series. The dramatization was great,love the voices. I wish it hadn't been shortened. I can't wait for the rest of the series to be completed.

Midlife Madness

Another fantastic GraphicAudio production. I knew this would be a fantastic book. I expect nothing less from K.F. Breene. I enjoyed it immensely. I am already falling in love with the characters. I can’t wait for the next installment of this series.

loved the story

Very cute story with great naration! I was laughing the whole time. especially if you are a grown woman who is a little tired of reading about 20 year Olds.

it was fun

niamh's voice was horrible. it just ruined the experience. I really liked the original better

If an abridged version was abridged

I purchased the non-dramatized version about 2 years ago and it is one of my favorite series, so I thought the dramatized adaptation version would blow it out of the water. I was so wrong. The dramatized version is a abridged version and has left many important (I least that is how I feel) scenes/parts of book out. Much of the humor and back story are gone. I will be returning this purchase. Sometimes the original should be left alone.

Sadly Disappointed

I LOVE this series.
I have listened to these books so many times I can almost narrate them myself, so when I saw the dramatized version I was truly excited. I must admit I was nervous when I saw that they had lost 2 hours from the original audio book but I went in with an open mind.
Well, now I know better. The new narrators should have at least had a listen to the original recordings, just to get the pronunciations correct. The narrators should have also taken into account the ages of the characters because they don't sound like the "old as dirt" characters they are reading for.
It is sad that so many of the little "funnies" have been cut. Lines that I really like to hear are missing and even though it doesn't detract from the overall story I think it does detract from the fun of the book.
It's a shame, but I won't be getting the rest of the dramatized versions as I am such a huge fan of the originals.
