About this listen

Welcome to Spindle Cove, where the ladies with delicate constitutions come for the sea air, and men in their prime are...nowhere to be found.

Or are they?

Spindle Cove is the destination of choice for certain types of well-bred young ladies: The painfully shy, young wives disenchanted with matrimony, and young girls too enchanted with the wrong men; it is a haven for those who live there.

Victor Bramwell, the new Earl of Rycliff, knows he doesn't belong here. So far as he can tell, there's nothing in this place but spinsters...and sheep. But he has no choice, he has orders to gather a militia. It's a simple mission, made complicated by the spirited, exquisite Susanna Finch - a woman who is determined to save her personal utopia from the invasion of Bram's makeshift army.

Susanna has no use for aggravating men; Bram has sworn off interfering women. The scene is set for an epic battle; but who can be named the winner when both have so much to lose?

I just love Tessa Dare’s writing. This is the first book of the Spindler Cove Series and whilst not as hilarious as the stories in the Girl Meets Duke books, had its moments and was an interesting listen. I look forward to listening to the rest of the books in this series.

The narration is excellent and I recommend.

Enjoyable

Overall I would say this book was well worth the credit. I loved the characters, the story wasn't too heavy but there were a couple of twists to keep it interesting.
I did find myself getting impatient at times with the lengthy descriptions of a characters perceived perusals of other characters.
I have heard worse narrators, and while the performance didn't ruin the book, it did limit the male characters in particular.
I did enjoy this book, so much so that I am buying the next in the series.
