A wealthy condemned prisoner marries a destitute widow to provide her and her unborn child with a secure future. From this bleak beginning of this audiobook comes a delightful tale of unexpected love, artfully narrated by James Langton. When Quinn Wentworth is saved from the hangman's noose by a last-minute pardon, he gains a wife along with his freedom. The listener feels Quinn's emotional upheaval; he is, in turns, bewildered by his change in circumstances and infuriated by his wrongful conviction. Practical Jane is a calming influence, and Langton voices her with a soothing yet no-nonsense tone. A charming cast of characters and a satisfying love story mark the beginning of a terrific new series. L.C.L. © AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine [Published: JANUARY 2019]
