More than the plot, I enjoyed the language in which this novel is written. It is beautiful and the narration is enjoyable. No bad language! How refreshing and uplifting.
What a powerful story! Thank you for this tortured love story. It overcomes such difficulties but ends with such love. I really enjoyed the moments with the horses and the children, as well.
Thank you for doing this! I bought and read the book the day after I heard Luke talk about it. I love hearing the audio and accent. Really appreciate clean romance!
I really loved this story. I've read 3 all out of sequence 😆 but this has me mad, sad and frustrated at Simons antics around Susanna. Its true to say that some folk just don't see what's under their nose. Poor Mina was a trooper for putting up with the abuse from everyone but I was glad when she decided she'd had enough .
♥️♥️♥️♥️ how more gifted can you be M.A. Nichols. I wish you narrated all the audiobooks i had ever read or planning to. Just perfect!!!! Lots of love from Saudi Arabia
I wish I could take credit for that beautiful narration, but my narrator is Madeleine Brolly. I do plan on putting more up in the future. Subscribe to be notified when new ones come out in the coming weeks.
Oh, my bad. Sorry about that. The book is very lovely. It flows so beautifully. Have finished it in less than 24 hours. Full on subscriber now. U r a great Author. Am happy to have discovered you. Lots of 💕💕💕💕💕
I just love Fredericks character. His quips during dinner had me chuckling. My favourite scene though is Frederick planting Simon a facer. I wish more men would do that on a ladies behalf to abusive jerks who break our hearts. Thank you for adding it to your story. I am really enjoying Madeleines smooth voices in all your books.
This was a beautiful story! You did such a wonderful job creating the characters and building the story. I’ve accomplished so many more chores in two days just for an excuse to keep listening to this book! Thank you for sharing it!
@@m.a.nichols I am looking forward so much for poor Simon's huge 'awakening ' to real life as a husband not his imaginary 'fairytale ' of I am brokenheart sorry for himself rich batchelor, I am looked after life. 😁. Thank you for a lovely story . Well done so,far for what I have read😍
Thank you! Even though I was angry throughout mosy of it 😁 I really like her friend, her husband and the old lady, I would love more on their characters as well as Mina and Simon. I don't want to give anything away. So I am being vague.

Well crap! This must be the first book - and I'm reading these out of order... Sigh... 3:22:37 - spoiler - my heart is breaking for poor little Mina - the way this is written here - where finally, finally she is married and not going to have to be a wallflower at balls again - but it's worse than all the others - it just breaks my heart - seriously - the writing here makes me feel everything! 5:56:58 - Dang! and the story just keeps getting better and better!!!! Holy Moly and a great plot twist too (spoiler - this is where Simone is faced with his horrid family invading AND with the "love of his life" just after kissing Mina in the stables!!!!) It's like one of those - Dun, Dun, Dunnn - moments!!! LOL The whole part after Simone's family and the stupid ex of his show up is just so heartbreakingly sad... my heart can't take much more - Everything that Mina suffered through with her in-laws and her idiotic husband!!! I just want to slap that man! and that terrible woman he was so mad for! UGH! But doesn't everything in this part just perfectly fit the title of the book! This book is so good! The ending was kind of abrupt - and way too wordy - but such a great book! I loved it and I have found my new favorite author! Really well written - so worth the listen!
@@m.a.nichols Thank you - and I'm so glad they are stand alone - I'm just kinda OCD that way - lol... except in the one I just finished - the True Gentleman one - it mentioned Mina (SP?) and some of her and Simone's troubles - thank goodness I have a crap memory - lol Also - I noticed you only have 3 books on this channel - is that all you have? Cuz I've fallen in love with your writing and want to listen to everything you've written now! lol
@@Miss_Judy I've a whole bunch of books up on Amazon, and I do have more audiobooks available for purchase. I plan on posting more to UA-cam in the near future, but if you want them sooner than that, look at the link in my description. That takes you to the Amazon page, where you can view the rest of my books & purchase. But more are coming in the next few weeks.
I am confused about Simon's ex having an heir and a spare. How does that fit in the timeline? Hadn't Simmons and Mina gotten married five months before?
Lovely story! Thank you for sharing!! And the narrator is wonderful. I hate listening to audio books with AI; they take too much away from the story for me with their awkward pauses and no emotion. I understand why authors use them, but I can't listen to them.
Oh I do wholeheartedly agree about the AI. Have 'tried' a couple of times to listen but eventually give up as it is SO distracting to hear all the incorrect non inflections to add the correct 'feelings' & emotion especially when the actual storyline does sound lovely. No AI for me . Thanks to the author for going the extra 'mile' $$$$ wise and giving us a true narrator
Oh dear Simon has such a long way to go from being a 'perfect' husband , companion or a thinking male, how long will he just be the 'perfect ' thoughtless idiot. Well nothing has changed much with many husbands, sadly
It is a slow-moving romantic tale about a superb, unmarried woman with hopes and dreams. She's not fashionable bc she's plump and not traditionally pretty. She realizes she's been on the shelf too long and much prefers to marry a respectable man - without love - than stay a spinster. Simon proposes, accepting he doesn't love her, but very much respecting and enjoying her. They actually have a good life except for that pesky sex thing. Which doesn't happen. Simon has much to figure out poor guy (he's in lust with a woman). It ends well, but I sure would have enjoyed a little lovemaking at thend AND an epilogue.
Hello M.A.Nichols I just started listening to your audio book. I thought what a coincidence it would be if your name and mind are the same. Mine is Marie Nichols, is yours the same? Although my middle name isn't an A.. I'm enjoying the book .

This narrator was exquisite in her delivery. Wonderful story. Thank you.

This story was so captivating. Thank you for posting it online.
My sister in law is vision impaired and likes romance novels. Thank you for sharing on UA-cam 😊
I too am partially sighted and your books read so sympathetically are a real joy to me. Thank you.
I am also and I concur wholeheartedly.
Great narration. Super job. Enjoyed the book

And from Italy too.

Excellent voice of narrator! Wonderful story with not one bit of descriptive sex which is totally refreshing.
Great story. Thanks

Thankfully, they're all standalone stories, so you can read in any order. They are listed on my playlists in order if you want to read them that way.

I am confused about Simon's ex having an heir and a spare.
How does that fit in the timeline?
Hadn't Simmons and Mina gotten married five months before?
I was outraged on Mina's behalf. Compelling storytelling even if I was furious for the majority of the book.

I wish I could hear all of it as it ended at 3 hrs
I'm not sure what you mean. The full audiobook is posted.
It is a slow-moving romantic tale about a superb, unmarried woman with hopes and dreams. She's not fashionable bc she's plump and not traditionally pretty. She realizes she's been on the shelf too long and much prefers to marry a respectable man - without love - than stay a spinster.

4 adds in the first 20mins; hope this won't continue!!!
I'm working on getting the ads set at better breaks. I'm hoping to have it fixed with UA-cam in the coming week.
Thank you
CAPTIVATING!!
