An Unexpected Bride

Brides of Brighton, Book 5

By: Ashtyn Newbold

Narrated by: Katherine Anderson

A marriage of convenience, an honorable gentleman, and the secrets of a mysterious young lady.

Eleanor Claridge had it all. A family that loved her, a secret romance with a handsome soldier, and a beautiful home in the seaside town of Brighton. Although her father did not approve of her suitor, she found no fault in him. With respect to her father's wishes, she paused to examine his character.

But it was too late.

Abducted and taken to Scotland under the ruse of a happy elopement, Eleanor was forced to marry the wicked man she had once loved.

And now she has a chance to escape.

Widowed and alone, she flees on the first coach back to Brighton with her young son, vowing never to marry or trust another man again. But when her reputation and the safety of her child are questioned, she has no choice but to enter into a marriage of convenience with Mr. Henry Beaumont, whose kindness and inviting blue eyes leave her questioning if love is such a dreadful notion after all . . .

Great story !

A very sweet clean regency romance , very hard to find and very much appreciated .Thank you !

Loved it!

A wonderful conclusion to Ashtyn Newbold’s “Brides of Brighton” series. I didn’t realize I had read this one before, but it was still has enjoyable as the first time I read it and this time I enjoyed it while listening to the book.

I highly recommend this book and series.

Sweet. innocent and soothing

quite a good plot. read in a straightforward gentle manner. this writer shows promise of more engaging, stronger stories. a more dynamic writing style with more descriptive prose would help

.horrible narration

I could not finish this listen because of the narrator. She narrates in a dull, monotone, almost baby voice. She makes the young male characters sound like old men. I tried, but I just could not enjoy the story.
