About this listen

A Regency romance on the high seas. Two hearts yearning to find a safe harbor, and possibly, a lasting love.

As a young girl, Georgana Woodall dreamed of beautiful dresses, fancy balls, and falling in love. However, when her mother dies, she cannot face a future under the guardianship of her abusive grandmother and instead chooses to join her father on his ship disguised as his cabin boy, “George”.

Lieutenant Dominic Peyton has no time in his life for love, not with his dedication to His Majesty’s Royal Navy claiming his full attention. While trying to adjust to a new crew, he strives to be an exemplary officer and leader. When he sees the captain’s cabin boy being harassed by the crew, he immediately puts a stop to it and takes the “boy” under his wing. After discovering a number of clues, Dominic deduces that George is really a woman. Knowing that revealing the cabin boy’s secret would put her in serious danger from the rowdy crew, Dominic keeps silent and hides his growing affection for her.

Georgana is quickly losing her heart to Dominic’s compassion and care but is convinced nothing can come of her affection. She cannot continue to live her life on the sea, and having already missed too many seasons in London, her chances of being welcomed back into polite society and finding a suitable husband are quickly slipping away.

Georgana’s Secret is about two hearts yearning to find a safe harbor, and possibly, a lasting love.

This was a good book with an original story. Sadly, the cadence of the narration made it a struggle to listen to and continue to the end.

While it did take me time to adjust to the narrators voice, I thoroughly enjoyed the story. I’m a big fan of clean, wholistic romance and this fits the bill. I’m sure I will be listening to it again before long.

Engaging

This was a well-written love story with both interesting plot progression and character development. Georg’ and Domenic each possessed depth and maturity shaped by the love they did and didn’t receive whilst growing up and I found myself rooting for their blossoming relationship from the very start.

I actually found this book whilst searching for more stories read by this narrator as I am of the school of thought that enjoys her lovely voice. Horses for courses. If you’re already a fan of this narrator, you won’t be disappointed with the experience, however, for those without opinion as yet, please give this a listen as it’s a little gem of a story. For those of you firmly fixed in the anti-fan club, give it a miss.

Whichever the case, I highly recommend and look forward to listening to other books by this author.

Voice too posh

Horrid narration! Heather Wilds has no idea how to read a book and her intonation drives you to distraction
