Abigail

A Novel

By: Jess Heileman

Narrated by: Wendy Wolfson

Secrets are meant to be kept. Especially when the truth will change everything.

Since the death of her mother, Abigail Blakeslee has lost any desire to become a debutante and enter Society. But now, foregoing her first Season has brought an unwanted invitation to join her aunt and cousins for a summer at Timpton House, the large estate of the Stanton family.

Reluctantly accepting, Abigail is thrust into the vexing world of social propriety and matchmaking she had hoped to avoid. More vexing still is her cousin’s suitor, the young Timpton heir—Edwin Stanton. Moody and distant at times, remarkably endearing at others, Edwin seems a puzzle she can never solve, but can never quite put away. But then, Abigail has her own secret to hide—her own mystery to conceal. Perhaps such puzzles are better left unsolved, or perhaps love can find a solution.

Wonderful story and excellent reader!!

Although we expect a romance novel to have a happy ending, the twist and turns and subtle humor in this story are delightful! I thoroughly enjoyed the surprises in the plot and all of the supporting characters! Highly recommend!
