Eagleton

Confirmed Bachelors, Book 6

By: Jenny Hambly

Narrated by: Helen Taylor

Two people haunted by their past....

Alexander Wraxall, sixth Marquess of Eagleton, worries he may be cursed. Those close to him tend to die, and he believes he is, in part, responsible for their deaths. When he receives a packet of letters from a relative he thought long dead, he embarks on a journey that will change his life forever.

Since washing up on the shores of Lake Garda, Nell Marsdon has put her nightmarish history behind her and, in the house of Angelica Montovani, has found some peace. It is shattered by the arrival of the Marquess of Eagleton, a man who represents everything she has learned to despise.

Under the sun of a foreign land, they will be forced to confront their deepest fears, but will it unite or divide them?

Unexpected redemption

A most-satisfying story of love, redemption, and hope. I had wondered how Eagleton, a thoroughly unpleasant character from Ormsley, could possibly be redeemed, but Ms Hambly has created a tale of growing hope and love for two individuals nearly destroyed by cruelty. Insight into Eagleton's history and the reasons for his behavior was described well. Nell, with her own flaws, is a wonderful match. The strengths and weaknesses of each have the potential to create a much stronger marriage and family. Helen Taylor provides a masterful performance (as always).

I love these books. I escape into a different time. I fall in love every time
