About this listen
He thinks she's a bossy shrew. She thinks he's rude beyond measure. It's hate at first sight.
England, 1823: Dr. Oliver Somersby is a man caught between two worlds, longing to be accepted--somewhere. The illegitimate son of a wealthy aristocrat and a Romani mother, he carries his shame in secret. Unwilling to commit to a relationship for fear of discovery, the high-and-mighty widow, Camilla Denby is the last person with whom he'd wish an attachment. If only she would stay out of his thoughts.
Years after losing her great love at Waterloo, Camilla is ready to risk her heart again. If only she could find a man who stirs her blood as passionately as her deceased husband. Certainly not that exasperatingly arrogant new doctor. But when she discovers he's the captivating man she met at the masquerade, she's forced to confront her feelings.
As they're continually thrown unwittingly into each other's paths, their protective masks are slowly discarded. And they each learn first impressions are often made in haste. But will Oliver's secret parentage be too great for Camilla to accept, and if discovered will it threaten his very life?
As they fight their way to each other, will they overcome their prejudices to find a lifetime of love?

Story
Living in a year around Christmas town has its drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears. It's why I like to hibernate away in my cave - I mean housekeeping a healthy distance from the holly jolly spirits. And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy. Without blinking, she turned my simple world into a real nightmare-before-Christmas, especially when she decided to enter the town Christmas Kringle contest - which she was determined to win.

But after one too many, she spills all her secrets to the hot guy seated next to her—only to wake up mortified when her buzz has worn off.

Oops.

All newly minted pediatrician Jamie Malek wants is to borrow a roasting pan for Christmas dinner. Unfortunately, that requires her to interact with Marc—her best friend’s troublemaking brother, who’s now a tech billionaire. He’s the one who got away. She’s the one who broke his heart. Outside, a howling blizzard. Inside, a crackling fire. Suddenly, being snowbound with the man she never expected to see again might not be such a bad way to spend a winter’s night.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

A truly beautiful story.
A truly beautiful story full of joy, service, class differences and cultural struggles. Olive is the illegitimate son of Lord and a gypsy. As a doctor, he works at Hope Clinic and meets Camilla at a masquerade. The chemistry between the two is amazing and can be felt through the story. I have both read and listened to the audio of this story. I must say, my favorite is the audio. This author has the wisdom and uniqueness to use not one but two narrators, The Duke and Duchess! They are beyond words amazing story tellers, their diction was impeccable and being such give life to the entire experience. Having both a male and female voice makes so much difference in an audible story. I'm so impressed with these two story tellers that I won't listen to audiobooks unless there are two people. Bravo to this author for both her amazing story as well as her innovative creativity in using both narrators.
