The Love Note

De: Tracy Rees

Narrado por: Jasmine Blackborow

A heartwarming tale of love, family and acceptance, The Love Note is a simply gorgeous listen...

In their townhouse in Richmond, Blue and her family are as happy and as close as can be - well, on the surface at least.

But with the arrival of a young, destitute woman hoping to escape her abusive husband, they must finally confront the rifts that keep them apart. When they welcome Delphine into their home - and their hearts - they think it's for her benefit only. But what they don't realise is that she will bring them together in ways they never thought possible.

**Previously published as Darling Blue**

'There were so many things that captivated me - her always wonderful writing, the gorgeous 1920s world of Richmond she evoked so beautifully and the characters who jumped right off the page and were such a complete pleasure to spend time with'
Jenny Ashcroft

'I loved the evocative atmosphere of the 20s, the lovely characters and gorgeous descriptions of nature/turning of the seasons'
Lucinda Riley

'Tracy's meticulous research and lavish prose provide the reader with the complete experience. From the intriguing premise, I was caught up in the lives of these three women and invested in their stories. Tracy's depiction of life in Richmond in the twenties was spot on and added depth to this glorious novel'

All the magnificent women!

The Love Note❣️

My favorite Author is Tracy Rees! I love the way she writes her stories. You can just imagine every character very clearly! It is if you see the play in your head. I enjoyed the relationships between the family and friends, it was incredibly caring and loving. I also like that the villains don’t take up much of the story and you have more of the caring loving story of the characters. I will admit I always enjoy a very Happy ending to her books! Especially in the times we are all living, it is perfect to listen to her books. The Narrator Jasmine Blackborow did a nice job also! I highly recommend this book and all of Tracy Rees books! I will be reading another one today! Thank you

Lovely Story

Thoroughly enjoyed this book. Lovely Read. Many different main characters other than Blue and just loved the journey. Also many important messages along the way.

Three diverse stories

I usually prefer novels of a later. But I love this one from the 1920s. All three of the main women were so different but Tracy made it easy to keep all the stories and characters straight even though the stories were entertwined. Very powerful stories. And the performance was tremendous.

The Love Note

Another great story by Tracy Rees. The story took me through an assortment of emotions. I laughed, cried, was shocked, worried and sad. Of the first books I read by Tracy Rees were Florence Grace and Amy Snow which I loved so much I read more than once each. I can add the Love Note to the list of rereads. The narration was excellent, very fitting for the storyline.

Great story!

Loved it immensely, I did have to skip a little of the stressful part but that’s just me! Lots of little surprises!

Wonderful

Another great book by Tracy Rees.
Fantastic narrator. I hope she continues to write these historical novels. They are fabulous.

I will no longer read historical novels by this author

The whole plot with midge is waaaaay out of context for the time period of this novel. I loved Tracy’s Little house by the sea and the Little Christmas House, but this book was a complete mess in comparison. The storyline seemed completely implausible, especially for the 1920’s. Super disappointed.
