About this listen

 Getting a life isn't always easy. And hanging on to it is even harder . . .

Discover this funny, heart-warming tale of self-discovery from Jodi Taylor, author of the internationally bestselling Chronicles of St Mary's series.

Nobody ever notices little Jenny Dove. Even her family call her the Nothing Girl. Isolated and alone, Jenny is about to end it all when she is rescued by Thomas, a giant golden horse only she can see.

Under his mischievous guidance, Jenny begins to think she might one day become someone. And when the charmingly chaotic Russell Checkland erupts into her life - together with his tumbledown farmhouse - and proposes a marriage that will save them both, Jenny is ready to take a chance.

Sadly, her new life at Frogmorton Farm doesn't exactly sweep Jenny off her feet. There are leaking roofs, unpaid bills and so many buckets. And then, as a series of apparent 'accidents' unfolds, Jenny begins to worry this might not be a fairy-tale ending after all...

As a fan of The Chronicles of St Mary’s books, I was so happy to find this. I think it is the same narrator and she is terrific. Jodi Taylor really fleshes out her characters and I found myself sobbing a couple of times when listening to this. It’s pretty amazing to get so involved in another world. I am just about to start the next one, so fingers crossed.

A beautiful tale, perfectly narrated.

The only thing I struggled with, as I do with this authors writing style in other series, is the LONG drawn out hypothesis scenarios.
