Beauchamp Hall

By: Danielle Steel

Narrated by: Dan John Miller

Winona Farmington once dreamed of graduating from college, moving to New York City, and pursuing a career in publishing. Then real life got in the way when she left college and returned to her small Michigan hometown to care for her sick mother.

Years later, stuck in a dead-end job and an unsatisfying relationship, Winnie has concluded that dreams were meant for others. She consoles herself with binge-watching the British television series that she loves, Beauchamp Hall, enthralled by the sumptuous period drama set on a great Norfolk estate in the 1920s. The rich upstairs-downstairs world brilliantly brought to life by superb actors is the ultimate in escapism.

On the day Winnie is passed over for a long-overdue promotion, she is also betrayed by her boyfriend and her best friend. Heartbroken, she makes the first impulsive decision of her conventional life, which changes everything.

She packs her bags and flies to England to see the town where Beauchamp Hall is filmed. The quaint B & B where she stays feels like home. The brother and sister who live in the castle where the show is filmed, rich in titles but poor in cash, are more like long-lost friends than British nobility. And the show itself, with its colorful company and behind-the-scenes affairs, is a drama all its own. Winnie’s world comes alive on the set of the show.

What happens next is the stuff of dreams, as Winnie takes the boldest leap of all. Beauchamp Hall reminds us to follow our dreams.... You never know what magic will happen!

Ended abruptly

Story was wonderful until the end - it seemed very rushed and as if she had to wrap it up quickly and tie up loose ends. The ending was not as detailed and descriptive as the rest of the story therefore was disappointing. Loved the storyline but the way it was “rushed” in the telling at the end just didn’t make sense compared to the beginning. Was surprised when it ended so quickly

wonderful story

I loved it! I'm now a Danielle Steel fan. She tells a wonderful, simple story. it made me laugh out loud at work...oops! on to the Duchess.

,

Loved it.

Great feel good book. Love to move there myself I'd buy a ticket today! Word (really you have to have certain number of words)

Disappointed

This will be my last Danielle Steele book. She constantly repeats things . She uses the word and too much when a period would be so much better. The story line wasn’t bad but the book was too full of repeat scenarios.

Fun Entertaining

Loved this wonderful story. Fun adventure. Became absorbed in the story of taking chances and making changes. Perfectly read. Could not stop listening!

Easy light listening

I like this Danielle Steel book. If you're in the mood for a light entertaining story, this one is great, especially if you're a Downton Abbey fan!

Not great.

This was my first Daniel Steel novel. It was a bit corny. I might give one more try but I wasn’t thrilled. It might’ve been a little better with a female narrator.

Enjoyed the story

This was good book I enjoyed it kept me interested till the end then felt a little to quick to end
