Wealthy wool magnate Tremaine St. Michael is half French, half Scottish, and all business. He prowls the world in search of more profits, rarely settling in one place for long. When he meets practical, reserved Lady Nita Haddonfield, he sees an opportunity to mix business with pleasure by making the lady his own.


Nita Haddonfield has a meaningful life tending to others, though nobody is dedicated to caring for Nita. She insists the limitations of marriage aren’t for her, then Tremaine St. Michael arrives—protective, passionate, and very, very determined to win Nita’s heart


One of the audios that Blodeuedd gave me for xmas. Yes, yes, finally diving into the audios!



This follows Tremaine who is all business. All sheep...all money....all seriousness. This also follows Nita who is all business too. But her's is more about helping the poor folks of the village with her medical gifts. She has dedicated her spinster life to helping those who need it. Things happen and the two fall in love. But Tremaine will have to convince her marriage is indeed for her. 



It was cute. I like this author a lot. I liked both of our lovebirds even Tremaine who was so obsessed with sheep. UGH. Sheep are cute but they are boring. lol. 



There was a hair of drama near the end there, but nothing too serious and I'm glad they were able to talk it out even though I was annoyed with Nita. I feel like she did use Tremaine there for a minute. Not nice missy. 



The old man doctor and Edward were nasty buggers. 



I'm glad everything worked out for everyone in the end. No spoiler there...it is a romance ;)



The narrator was decent. It took a bit for me to warm up to him. His girl's voice was hard to really like, however, I did warm to it eventually. 


Overall, I liked this. It was cute. I want to read/listen to more! The author was just okay. I did warm up to him. I'll stamp this with 4 stars.

  2. I don't think I have listened to a male narrator do a romance novel solo. It might take some getting used to for me. Glad you liked it.

  3. So based on Blodeuedd's recommendations, I tried the audiobooks that directly preceded this one. I really enjoyed, although they books do become a bit formulaic. Like you, it took me a bit to warm up to the narrator, but after one book, I couldn't imagine anyone else reading them.
