A gripping and heartfelt story about overcoming the past and finding where you belong. Anna Wilson travels the world as a professional housesitter – stepping into other people’s lives - caring for their homes, pets and sometimes even neighbours. Living vicariously.

Story
Outside a remote manor house in an idyllic wood, a baby girl is found. The Harrington family takes her in, and disbelief quickly turns to joy. They're grieving a terrible tragedy of their own, and the beautiful baby fills them with hope, lighting up the house's dark, dusty corners. Desperate not to lose her to the authorities, they keep her secret, suspended in a blissful summer world where normal rules of behaviour - and the law - don't seem to apply. But within days a body will lie dead in the grounds. And their dreams of a perfect family will shatter like glass.

Story
Have you ever imagined running away from your life? Well Birdy Finch didn't just imagine it. She did it. Which might've been an error. And the life she's run into? Her best friend, Heather's. The only problem is, she hasn't told Heather. Actually there are a few other problems. Can Birdy carry off a summer at a luxury Scottish hotel pretending to be her best friend (who incidentally is a world-class wine expert)? And can she stop herself from falling for the first man she's ever actually liked (but who thinks she's someone else)?

Meet Mercy Blain, whose house has just burnt down. Unfortunately for Mercy, this goes beyond the disaster it would be for most people: she hasn't been outside that house for two years now. Flung out into the world she's been studiously ignoring, Mercy goes to the only place she can. Her not-quite-ex-husband Eugene's house. But it turns out she can't stay there, either.

Story
In a sprawling mansion filled with peculiar treasures, January Scaller is a curiosity herself. As the ward of the wealthy Mr. Locke, she feels little different from the artifacts that decorate the halls: carefully maintained, largely ignored and utterly out of place. But her quiet existence is shattered when she stumbles across a strange book. A book that carries the scent of other worlds and tells a tale of secret doors, of love, adventure and danger. Each page reveals more impossible truths about the world, and January discovers a story increasingly entwined with her own.

Story
Lainey has just lost everything. Luckily one little fib (OK, quite a big fib) helps nail her dream job. Soon she's living in a stunning house by the sea, fending off obsessed fans for a retired - if far-from-retiring - actor and organising his charming but chaotic family. Yes, everyone thinks she's part of a couple, and it's tricky keeping this secret. But at least she's not looking for love: with her disastrous relationship history, men are definitely off the agenda.

Booktrack Edition- never again
I’ve heard so many good things about this book that I couldn’t wait to listen to it.
But I can’t tell you anything about because somehow I purchased the booktrack edition - BIG mistake. The background music almost drowns out the dialogue and was at one point putting me to sleep. It is loud and distracting, that for me I could see no point in it and not sure what it was supposed to add to the story.

Frustrating to listen to
I sincerely regret purchasing this audio book. I do not understand what the producers thought process. The narrator’s voice is intermittently drowned out by sorrowful music. Accordingly I cannot review the content of the book itself. If you are considering purchasing this book I would recommend that you purchase another version.

A silly little romance, engaging enough.
There were parts which were beautifully written and yet I was put off mainly by the narration. Laura’s voice sounded as if it was put on and the accents were also a little cloying and fake.
The storyline was good enough to keep me listening but I should have stuck to the paperback. It’s the kind of book you read on the plane or on holiday. Nothing challenging. But what did I expect?

Just wonderful!
It was so wonderful to listen to a story with a booktrack. It gave this lovely story even more depth. Ruth Hogan is a talented writer - very descriptive. I will definitely look for more of her work. I also really enjoyed Jane Collingwood's narration, as well as Sandra Duncan's.
