A Return to Hawthorne House

A Novella Collection

By: Kristi Ann Hunter

Narrated by: Claire Storey

Always a Lady

Despite the fact that her daughter is not cooperating, Caroline, Duchess of Riverton, is determined to ensure every one of her children marries someone they love as much as she loved their late father. William, the widowered Earl of Blackstone, is delighted to have his days of escorting daughters approaching an end. The last thing he expects is to find himself drawn to a woman who is just starting such a journey. Are they each too set in their ways to grasp this chance to have a second love?

The Lady’s Maid

When Lydia Smith began her career as a parlor maid, she knew love and marriage wasn’t likely in her future. Dreaming about the boy next door as she dusted seemed harmless until he started working as the new valet under the same roof. When Finch needs her help with a special project, will it give them a chance to defy expectations and find love, or ruin their happiness forever?

Enjoyed listening

I thought Kristi did well with the characters especially since the stories were shorter. It was fun finding out how things started with those characters after listening to all the books in the series. I had to go to Apple Books get the first audio book about Amelia, “A Lady of Esteem.”

Not what I’d hoped for

Not sure if it was the narrator or the characters but there just didn’t seem to be a lot of substance to these novellas. Wish I had waited for library copy to become available
