Courting Miss Lancaster

De: Sarah M. Eden

Narrado por: Luone Ingram

Harry Windover adores blonde, green-eyed Athena Lancaster, but alas, a penniless man like himself has no hope of winning a young noblewoman’s hand. To add insult to injury, Athena’s brother-in-law and guardian, the Duke of Kielder, has asked Harry to assist Athena in finding the gentleman of her dreams.

But the lovesick Harry is cunning as well: as the weeks pass, he introduces Athena to suitors who are horrifically boring, alarmingly attached to their mothers, downright rude, astoundingly self-absorbed, and utterly ridiculous. Athena can’t comprehend why she is having so little success meeting eligible and acceptable gentlemen. Indeed, her circle of admirers couldn’t be less admirable - nothing like the loyal, gentle friend she’s found in Harry.

But how long can Harry’s scheme be hidden before it is discovered? And what will Athena do when she uncovers Harry’s deception? Escape into a charming regency world in this delightfully romantic comedy of manners that will entertain you to the very last word.

Historical times fiction

I absolutely loved these types of stories and they are clean and the reader can listen without needing to fast forward through it as you would a movie

Good story, meh narration

I appreciate Ingram working hard to give each character a distinct voice. However, the voice she gives male characters is across the board annoying and seems disingenuous or false. It almost sounds like it is painful to make these noises, and this takes me out of the story.

Sweet Family-Friendly Historical Romance

This story is well-written and read by a decent narrator. It's family friendly, if that is the kind of title you are looking for. The characters are believable and enjoyable in their quirks. Recommended for anyone wanting a light-hearted historical romance.

A wonderful story by one of my Favourite author

I loved this, partly because I remember being like Athena in my teenage years and now that I'm older and wiser I can enjoy the brief return to such idealisms and romanticisms of love

Engaging story

Good story, well told, kept interest. Very much enjoyed listening to it. Looking forward to the next book.
