A hidden treasure!

I had never heard of this book prior to listening to it. What a beautiful hidden treasure! Such a well written story. If I had had the book in my hand, I would have clasped it to my chest and smiled as I finished the last page. Only wish the same volunteer had read the book from beginning to end. The changing voices made the story difficult to follow at times.

At first I thought it would be a Taming of the Shrew kind of story, but the plot is cleverer and funnier. If you don't like what passes for romance novels nowadays, you can enjoy this.

This is a very enjoyable book! I couldn't stop listening to it! It had some funny scenes and some serious scenes. The readers did an excellent job as well!

Very distracting to have varied readers!!!!! I love this old book, and for this reason hung in there when it changed from Leo Smalley.
