The Doctor of Devonshire

Book Club Heartsgate

De: June Marie Saxton

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Persephone Prim worked hard to attain a career in the modern world. Her successes in medicine were remarkable, but she regrets never taking time for love, claiming a broken heart was a luxury she couldn’t afford. Luckily, Persephone meets a magical book club facilitator who sends her back to Regency England. The best part of being twenty-four again, is the fact that she has retained all the wisdom gathered over the course of her lifetime. Can she balance her knowledge with this exciting second chance, and open her heart enough to truly love?
Persephone has romanced the bygone era from her youth, especially immersing herself in Jane Austen’s works, but her seasoned experiences are not always aligned with the social and political climate of the times. In fact, she bucks the system, intentionally and unintentionally. Women doctors were unheard of—yet she ingratiates herself into the hearts of most everyone. Persephone’s adventures with Lord and Lady Cavendish are humorous and tender, and she interacts with landed lords and ladies, and the serving class, alike.
