I seem to be on a "Sally Birtton" marathon of some sorts. I simply can't get enough of your beautiful and masterful written characters. And the lovable and interesting supporting characters. Your plots are interesting and sweet. Never a dull moment in between chapters. I truly enjoy the simplicity and purity of these romances. They are very believable. I think you, Sally, for sharing your talents with us.
You are so very kind. Thank you so much for your comment! It takes two people to make a story a good one. An author and a reader. Thank you so much, and thank you for subscribing!
One truly hopes. I've done a little digging here and there and have found examples of good people in different places of my government. I just hope their voices continue to be heard.
This novella is my absolute favorite and I have already read and sometimes listened to many of your books!! Thank you so very much, Sally Britton, for these wonderful escapes - you have an amazing gift from God 😍👍💕
Never a disappoint!! Have loved these stories and enjoyed hearing the narrator as well. Great job!! Just wish it didn't end, would have loved listening to more of their story.
You know what is as good as enjoying a book for the first time? Coming back to it after a long time and enjoying it the same all over again. Been having trouble finding something that held my interest since I've listened to all your books. So I came back to the tried and true... Sally Britton books. 😊 I'm off to Reforming Lord Neil and then Saving Miss Everly next.😊
Just finished the Prequel 'A Duchess for the Duke'. I so enjoyed it, I smiled at the end. You are a gifted writer thank you for sharing your gift with us.
I'll definitely keep this playlist in my saved items to listen to again, starting with this book and then go back to the beginning. I am so thankful for this prequel of the duke and dutchess' story that gives so much greater depth to the other volumes where there presence is less focused but their impact still so great. Thank you so much Sally for sharing your passion and your talent, your sense of humour and the depth of thought in your characters. How blessed you must be. I have heard it said that authors write about what they know and what is truly evident in all your books is that you know how to love and be loved. Thank you for choosing Ms Jessica Elisa Boyd to narrate this whole series as she does an excellent job. Just as much as I have appreciated other narrators on other series or books and that they have undoubtedly made those excellent by giving their voice to the characters, so does Ms Boyd do absolute justice to this series and I look forward to any possible continuation in this series with her voice bringing life to your writing. May you be blessed as well as your family and may your talent and passion of story continue to bring so much joy and pleasure to so many more people.
That is one of the highest compliments I've ever received - that I know how to love and be loved. I'm forever grateful for that aspect of my life. Thank you for all the kind comments you're leaving on these books! I'm glad you're enjoying them so much!
I'm so glad to have found Sally's UA-cam channel and a beautiful recognition with her books and even better, on audio! Yayyy such a great book, great series, great author 😊
You would not be the first! My favorite TikTok/Bookstagram reader has asked multiple times for this. Shout out right now to her, btw. She's a great reader to follow for fun recs: instagram.com/azurelcosplay/
I have enjoyed listening again and again as I have each of your Inglewood series. I am so very much looking forward to the next ones in this series. Crushing on the duke? Absolutely! Why for me? He knows his love for her early and declares it first. A rush for a women’s heart is to know that he loves her completely and assuredly.
He is such an adorable man. I loved writing him as a parent, so going "back in time" to include those uncertain first years of being a duke and being married was SO much fun for me.
@@AuthorSallyBritton 😀 Your books are a pleasure, Sally, your protagonists think, act, speak and behave like people of their time and station. No sex, no blood curdling crime, just entertainment at its best. Your imagination and the thoughtful, loving way of creating these stories give your readers (listeners) hours of joy. I've been in this sickbed for nigh on 3 years, now and listening to your books here on UA-cam helps me through my nights. It's so kind of you to upload the audios in full length. Thank you so much again and all the best to you 🙋🏻♀
I’ve just finished A Duchess for the Duke. I have enjoyed it very much. I remembered the ugly chairs from the library in one of the other Cleaver stories. I think it’s time to reread the rest of the stories to keep the continuity going. The other store is will have more meaning I think now that I know the beginning of the new castle and it’s inhabitants. Thank you once more for such a lovely storied afternoon.
I have listened to each of the Castle Clairvoir books, i loved each one (but my favorite story was Simons😉). I truly would love 3 more, for each of the other children!
Ok I was not expecting to love this story so much!! I usually don't enjoy novellas as the shorter length doesn't allow me to care about the characters as much as a full length novel or the romance feels rushed. This one really surprised me. I liked and cared for the characters really early on, and their love story made my heart flutter all throughout. The last chapter was so adorable and made me melt!! I think I'll be listening to this one again. Thanks so much for writing this ❤ as with all of your Castle Clairvoir stories, I love the low angst. It allows me to fully enjoy the story without feeling stressed or anxious. There's plenty of that in my real life already 😅 so it's so wonderful to escape to this world ❤❤❤❤❤
The low angst is my favorite right now. I'm writing a new novel at the moment for a different series and REALLY struggling to add MORE angst to it. Ugh. Can't everyone just communicate and fall in love and be happy?!
📕👍😍 I thoroughly enjoyed this prequel Novela to a series. If you haven’t read any of this authors books, they are thoroughly enjoyable day, or in general historical Regency. And very well done I moved by her, and this particular one, the cultivating of the emotions gradually brought to the point of expression in the way that we expect between two people the dialogue is very well done the descriptions of the time in terms of. Understanding the ton the responsibilities and priorities of the elite aristocracy. Yes, they were expectations. That were the standard and different for each level of this is very thoroughly expressed here. Enjoyed it. Look forward to listening to other of Sally’s work and I hope you enjoy it as well.

SAME!
I must be a year late, but I am on this wagon too
This is such a beautiful family. I can only pray that people with this much integrity and kindness exist in all levels of leadership in every country.
One truly hopes. I've done a little digging here and there and have found examples of good people in different places of my government. I just hope their voices continue to be heard.
🤣🤣
One of the most beautiful novelas I have ever come across.
Totally loved it's simplicity and lack of drama.
Thank you! The Castle Clairvoir novels are similar. Low/no-drama and sweet love stories.
Heard it again, and again fell in love with it
by the way will you be uploading the story of their younger children aswell ?
The best audiobook narrator by far!!!
Gorgeous and leads in so well to the story of Mr Gardiner and the Governess.
Thank you ❤
Yay! So glad you enjoyed that.
I did not realized who "this" Duke was until the very end. I was Pleasantly surprised. Looveed it! I am now gone back and am re-listening 🥰
I just re-listened - I enjoyed it twice.😊 Wish I could double 👍👍
It means so much that you came back to comment on listening twice! Thank you!
After listening to many many many audiobooks, this was absolutely top shelve. The narrotors the story line all fit together perfectly. Thank you ❤
Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you for the kind compliment. :-) At least there are glimpses of them throughout the series. I adore my duke and duchess.

Thank you for writing this prequel. It was interesting to read how the Duke and Duchess got together in your imagination.
I love sharing my imaginary friends with everyone!
Just finished the Prequel 'A Duchess for the Duke'. I so enjoyed it, I smiled at the end. You are a gifted writer thank you for sharing your gift with us.
I am so glad it made you smile! Gregory and Cecilia are one of my favorite couples I've ever written.

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I've never had my writing described as honorable, but it positively excited me to read it. Thank you!

The perfect story for the Duke and Duchess. 💜 Thank you for writing their story.

Oh yay! I just finished an audiobook. I need another one. I have listened to all the books in this series. Looking forward to this
It's a very short one, but hopefully it bridges the time between your books!
Lovely story. The narrator was incredible. Thank you. 🌸I loved it so much.

Listening April 23, 2023.
The Dowager Duchess sometimes sounds like Dame Judy Dench. I would never cross her either!
Isn't she awesome?! Judi Dench is a gem. I also love Maggie Smith.
Thank you
Thank you 😊.
Yay thank you so much!
You're welcome! 🙂
Enjoyed this very much. TY😊
great book.... nice and short
Sometimes, short stories are exactly what we need.
This is my favorite!
Nice book. Thanks
Lovely story ❤
Thank you! 🙂

How strange. I'll look into fixing the playlist. Thank you for your comment!
Wait I’m confused. Is this a sequel or a prequel? The Duke from the earlier books didn’t die did he?
It's a prequel! This is how the duke and duchess came to meet, marry, and build their castle.

Help? This video won't load for me past about 1:39:00. I don't seem to have this problem with other videos.
I'm only just seeing this and I hope you were able to fix the issue. No one else has reported such a problem!
Where is this book set?
The 1790's, England. Rutland for the castle.
I mean 14 hours😅
That's still pretty good. ;-)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
😅
🧐
At last something shorter.
The short ones are sometimes best, aren't they?
I’d love that there was no sex scenes. Thank you.💟👏😃👍🏽🫶🏽
You are welcome!
Thanks!
Oh my goodness! Thank you so much, Debbie. You're very kind.
