About this listen

The Poor Relation hotel is the toast of London and its owners are preparing to sell up and retire - but one last romantic adventure awaits them!

Driven into hiding at the hotel by a tyrannous father and a rich but wizened suitor, Lady Jane Fremney attempts to end her life. The poor relations save the young lady and determine to improve her lot in life by bringing her out for the Season.

All the young bucks call on Jane, among them the handsome but racy Comte de Mornay, an exile from Napoleon's France who has broken many a heart and so far eluded matrimony. Jane is quite adamant he is unsuitable for her - but when his life is threatened by an assassin's pistol, it is up to her to help him escape from danger... and into l'amour!

Awesome!

I enjoyed The Poor Relation series very much. All the pomp and ceremony of it’s time. Not my usual listen but I’m so glad i took a chance on it. I’m a bit sad now it’s finished. M.C Beaton without any murders, was a delight! Read beautifully by Davina Porter, all 6 books! Thank you

A fun story

I did not enjoy this quite as much as the other stories but I wanted to listen to it in order to find out how the Poor Relations story finished. Great performance by Davina Porter.

Enjoyed twists and turns

Enjoyed getting to know the many characters throughout the series - binged on the stories one after the other which I thought was beautifully narrated
