Historical Romance Audiobook Review

Narrated by Angela Dawe Roberta “Bertie” Frasier is glad that the Scottish barrister got her friend off on the charge of murder, but her father is angry that said barrister, Sinclair “Basher” McBride, got his friend charged with the crime…
The Songbird’s Seduction by Connie Brockway
Narrated by Heather Wilds Although The Songbird’s Seduction is set in 1908, there is, thankfully, no sign of “Downton Abbey Syndrome”. It’s not set in a country house with storylines divvied up between upstairs and downstairs – in fact, the…
