Call Me Softly

By: D. Jackson Leigh

Narrated by: Lula Larkin

When it comes to family secrets, Southern gentry would rather let sleeping dogs lie.

Abigail Wetherington believes the evil that stalks her family in the streets of London is a sleeping dog come back to bite them. So with her last breath, she implores her beautiful granddaughter, Lillie, to flee to the family's polo estate in South Carolina and seek the protection of someone Abigail has come to trust - Swain Butler. What Lillie doesn't know is that she is putting herself in the hands of a woman who may be the biggest family secret of them all.

Be careful, Abigail cautions Lillie. If sleeping dogs must be roused, then call them forth softly.

Really enjoyed this book!

The story line was well developed and learned a lot about the game of polo. The two main characters were really sizzling together with their chemistry. The narration was excellent as performed by Ms. Larkin.

ending

this book needed abb epilogue. everything literally happens in the last 15-20 minutes of the book so it's dragged on for hours then bam and no epilogue. sure it is a HEA but so unsatisfactory especially after I've been there for dragging and unneeded angst. that was very disappointing. why wait up into the last 20 pages of a book to rush and tie things up in a bow. otherwise it was a decent read, I'm giving it a 4 star for the overall story but mostly for the animals.

Excellent book!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! Having never considered polo before, my interest was piqued and I actually learned some things. The characters and their chemistry was enjoyable and the plot decent, if not a little cliche. Overall, I'd listen again and recommend this.

Excellent book

Very well written a great plot excellent MC. Narration was very good, although I am not keen of childish voices.
