I didn’t want the book to end.
Oh why did this book have to end so quickly. I just wanted it to carry on. It was absolutely amazing. Please tell us adoring fans there will be more? Thank you for having the talented Annie Aldington narrate again! She is perfection as always.

Very Enjoyable
I didn’t want this story to end. Fiona Ford the author, promptly replied to me about the sticky toffee pudding served at the New Year’s eve dinner at Lyons. It was not first served in 1970 as I thought but the early 1940s. More like this please Fiona. Annie Aldington is a brilliant narrator too which makes listening to this book so good.
