About this listen

Romance, jealousy, and murder from the internationally bestselling author Faith Martin, writing as Maxine Barry

She served her time, now she wants to find the real killer

Oriana Foster spent thirteen years in prison for a murder she didn’t commit.

Now she’s out and returns to her home village in Oxfordshire. She has one goal: to find the real killer of Rollo Seton.

While inside, a mysterious benefactor has put £2 million in trust for her. She uses the money to buy the Manor House in Nether Dene, the tiny village she grew up in.

The village doesn’t want her back.

She hires Connor O’Dell, a good-looking bodyguard. He’s there in case things get rough. But it’s Lowell Seton, the younger brother of Rollo and the love of Oriana’s life, who quickly becomes the greatest danger … to her heart.

And when Connor falls for Mercedes Seton, Oriana’s former best friend, things threaten to totally fall apart.

The real killer will strike again to protect their secrets.

Don’t miss this gripping and enjoyable romantic suspense novel perfect for fans of Danielle Steele, Josephine Cox, Nora Roberts, or Jackie Collins.

If I’d paid for this book I would have returned it. Too much romantic ‘flannel’ and poor narration with mispronunciation. Saying that I will be downloading the next one - it’s free!

Easy listen love story

The story was ok but too much 'fluff' and felt quite amateurish. The love story side felt like attempt at Mills and Boon. Narration was awful, squeeky, too posh for the text as it was written.
pleased it was free i wouldnt be happy if id paid for it.

Story Ok Narration appualing

Very simple and not very believable plot but then it was free! Too easy to guess the end half way through!

Mix and match

Amazed this was written by Faith Martin, no wonder she used a pseudonym. Weak plot, just a tired old attempt at a love story with sex scenes. I’m glad the character who was supposed to be the body guard wasn’t protecting me, as he spent most of his time in bed with the girl up the road! Considering his employer was supposed to be in fear for her life, she got a very poor deal. I gave up in the end, so I’m assuming she survived despite his efforts. Don’t bother, unless it’s free.

Poor

A little bit of mystery but mostly explicit sexy scenes. Interesting plot but put off by the that.

Too much ‘romance’ not enough suspense
