Brilliant Gothic Romance

I loved everything about this book, gothic element of mystery and suspense adds drama and excitement to love story.
I would say it’s more mystery with a bit of romance but overall excellent read, highly recommend.

Loved the story-strong heorine and hero.wished there could have more sex but that would have taken away from the story since she was married.

The Countess

An an amazing mystery that ends in a lovely romance. It's so nice to experience a wonderful happily ever after. Anne Flosnik did an exceptional job as narrator. 5 Stars to both Author and narrator!

Rather Boring

I skipped past much of the book to try to get to something of interest. Finally at about 2/3 of the way through it got better.

Even Ms. Flosnick couldn't save it!

Catherine Coulter and Anne Flosnik have always been winning combination - til this book. I really didn't like it. I have listened to it twice now - a couple of years apart, and still cannot find anything to appreciate.
