Acerca de esta escucha
When Felicity Comfort meets a mysterious artist by the Serpentine in Hyde Park, she has no idea just how moneyed, miserable, and notorious the gentleman actually is. But even when she discovers the truth about the Earl of Anderly, she cannot help feeling a mysterious urge to seek him out.
Magnus Blackstone, the Earl of Anderly, has retreated from society ever since the horrific incident that destroyed his life five years ago. But when a vivacious young lady and her ill-behaved pug invade his solitude, he realises that life might have more colour to it than a painting from his studio and that what seems like endless ashes can still be exchanged for beauty.
Sketches by the Serpentine is a Regency novel that can be listened to as a standalone but is best enjoyed after listening to A Brother's Wager.

Historia4 out of 5 stars 2
Charles Ellsworth is a young Englishman on his triumphant Grand Tour when the dissolution of his family fortunes and his own recklessness leave him stranded and in debt. He enters service as a tutor in the household of M. Tremblay, with nothing but his wits and the kindness shown him by an elderly maid to depend on. Pretty Jeanne Martineau played ingenue roles with a traveling theatre company before the manager absconded with the receipts. Now she works as a maid for the rakish M. Tremblay to avoid starvation, but escaping his groping hands requires she don the disguise of a hideous old woman.

It’s Valentine’s Day weekend, and Charlotte and Seth are not looking for romance. Armed with emotional-support bear spray, Charlotte is in self-imposed isolation and on guard from men. Having a stalker can do that to a person’s nerves. Just across the hall and giving off woodsy vibes is Seth, a recently divorced arborist. As in today recently. Heights, he’s fine with. Trust? Not so much.

Lana Fleming’s sister has vanished from the set of TV’s hottest show, and no one seems to care. Desperate for answers, Lana sneaks in as an extra, only to get stranded with Griffin Hart, an A-list action star with a reputation for good abs and bad decisions. Though Griffin didn’t expect to be cast as a librarian’s sidekick in a real-life thriller, he’s weirdly into it—and into her. Even more unsettling—she sees right through his playboy persona. But their meet-cute soon turns deadly when they uncover a Hollywood scandal for the ages.

Lowen Ashleigh is a struggling writer on the brink of financial ruin when she accepts the job offer of a lifetime. Jeremy Crawford, husband of best-selling author Verity Crawford, has hired Lowen to complete the remaining books in a successful series his injured wife is unable to finish.

Meet Randi Burnett—she’s brilliant, she’s beautiful, and she works for the bride. Missing groom? Intoxicated in-laws? Crying ring-bearer? You name it, she wrangles it. Too bad her personal life isn’t thriving like her side gig as a bridesmaid for hire. Recently dumped, Randi throws herself into her biggest challenge yet when she’s hired as a maid of honor and pretend best friend for an ice queen bride. There’s just one problem—the best man is infuriating, overprotective, and anti-marriage.

Liv’s happy with life in her thirties. She has two cats, one BFF, and no boyfriend, which is just how she likes it. Plus, she loves working at a not-for-profit software company where she can be her authentically autistic self. This is her happy ever after. But when her beloved firm merges with a repulsive rival, Liv finds herself competing with her sort-of-ex for the top job. Sure, Finn had been Liv’s best friend, with his nerdy good looks and their shared love of Tolkien, but there was that one night, their song, and … well, she doesn’t like to talk about it.

Delightful Regency Romance with 5 Star Audiobook Narration
The audiobook of this novel is exceptionally good, characterized by excellent, distinctly different and appropriate to character enactments. This 2024 book is delightfully reminiscent of the incredibly successful Georgette Heyer and Barbara Cartland. I found the treatment of fashion and the rigorous rules of Regency England applied flawlessly. While there is a mysterious death in the book, its tone is lighter than the style of Wuthering Heights. The series follows a set of siblings, but I started with #2 in the Comfort series and it worked well as a stand alone. A delightful Regency romance, but an exceptionally good professionally performed audiobook. I would tell the author to paint a richer historical fiction setting and to include more geo-political detail to more firmly situate the story and provide an additional level of audience enjoyment.

Narrated beautifully
A fun audio book that was beautifully narrated. Book two of four regarding the Comfort sisters. Felicy, sister #2 is full of life and joy. As she comes into contact with an artist, who is withdrawn and more reclusive, she draws him out to see the colors of the world. The narrator did an excellent job changing to suit each character.

Enjoyed listening
I love when Rosanne and Maria collaborate together on an audiobook. I always enjoy their work. I loved listening to the story narrated by Maria, loved the characters, enjoyed the tense moments of the story and hearing how the solutions would unfold. I always get so drawn in to listening to the story, that I can see it all playing out in my mind. I look forward to hearing more stories.
