Reviews


(4 stars)

The the storyline is very pleasant. The readers intonations take a little time to get used to, but once you adjust to it it's okay. I enjoyed this book

Good Story


(4 stars)

I have to say at certain points during the tale I felt quite angry, would we have allowed ourselves to be manipulated as Pheobe was, I would hope not. Happy ending apart, I was astounded when the wedding dress fitted, I'm not sure a dress made for me in childhood would have ever been of the right size all those years later, and the shoes, but it was a fairy tale so I suppose there was a bit of magic involved.


(3 stars)

Some parts of the book seem to drag on a little too long. Plus, the reader has a monotone voice that goes up at the end of sentences. Very irritating to listen too. Would be more pleasant with a different reader. Shirley

Excellent!


(5 stars)

Tiresome, tacky, tiny minded reviewers need to adjust their ears, not the narrator her style. Ungrateful complainers; go make your own version, if you dare. It wont come close to the excellent job this narrator does, I'll bet you.

part 2 of a trilogy

A lovely romantic story with interesting plot. Nothing extraordinary, but I liked it very much. It is a soothing calm book about love, dignity, virtue, good and evil. Nathaniel was very good and trusting, Phoebe had a spine and always defended herself, which I liked a lot, and Miranda is an absolutely amazing girl, so strong and clever! I have to add that the reader improved her intonations very much, I listened with pleasure. Thank you, Tricia D.!

A favorite!

Tricia G did an excellent job of narrating a lovely book. the villain is terrible, but the heroine Phoebe Deane is lovely, hardworking, and just absolutely delightful. The hero is brave and protective. Grace Livingston Hill did an outstanding job of writing a satisfying ending. One of the themes of this book is gossip and learning who one's true friends are when lies and slander are spread.

wonderful!
