Let It Be Me

By: Kate Noble

Narrated by: Alison Larkin

London weather is chilly - and the social scene even more so. Luckily, Bridget Forrester is just getting warmed up.

Bridget longs to meet a gentleman who doesn't mention her beautiful sister upon shaking her hand. But since being branded a shrew after a disastrous social season, Bridget knows she’s lucky to even have a man come near her. It's enough to make a lady flee the country. So Bridget heads to Venice for music lessons with the renowned Italian composer Vincenzo Carpenini, with whom she's been corresponding. But not only is Carpenini not expecting her, he doesn’t even remember her! His friend, theater owner Oliver Merrick, does, though. And one look into her tantalizing green eyes has him cursing his impulsive letter-writing, which brought her across the continent. Yet before Merrick can apologize, Carpenini has ordered her away. Little does either man know that they will soon be embroiled in a wager that will require the beautiful Miss Forrester's help - or that there’ll be far more at stake in this gamble than money.

Let it be me

Unlike the other books in the series, this book does not have a mystery. Nevertheless the plot is original and fast pacing. I enjoyed it very much. The narrator continue to impress and to bring the story to life, I highly recommend this book.

Enjoyed this series very much!

Enjoyed this series. The first and last books are my favorites. It would have been better without the sex scenes. There’s also unnecessary foul language a couple of times, thankfully not a lot. The narrator is excellent! The only irritating thing that I have noticed that has become a trend with many writers is that people do things “unconsciously” instead of subconsciously… “he unconsciously tucked her hair behind her ear.” To do something unconsciously you have to be unconscious, aka, asleep, knocked out, in a coma! When you are awake you do things subconsciously! Playing with the edge of a cuff, the curl that is loose, drawing figure eights on the skin of her shoulder…

A solid romance and a splendid listen

So different, not your cookie cutter, roll your eyes, story/plot. it took me awhile to finally download and so glad I did. This is a steady listen, with well rounded characters, and an atypical heroine and hero. This is not a heart pounding adventure and/or with steamy sex scenes, but a lovely story, good pacing accompanied with an excellent narrator. The book gave me a reset to the ‘average’ writing or ‘jump the shark’ plots circulating in this genre, as well as finding something other than book 4, 5.... 11, 12 of a series.

My favorite!

I loved all the references to the role of music in life, joy, pain, and love.

Amazing story

what can I say this story has everything. I laughed, I cried. I felt every emotion coming from the characters of this story. Pravo to the author! This is one of best written stories I have ever read/listened to. And the person reading the story was amazing. She brought out each characters personality and such an amazing voice!
