About this listen

 Treat yourself to this charming, cheering story from bestseller Veronica Henry.

'Veronica Henry writes like a dream' Jill Mansell

A new home, a new circle of friends, a new chance at happiness?

Suzanna and Barney Blake are swapping city life for the countryside, determined to breathe new life into the Honeycote Arms and a marriage touched by tragedy.

Recently separated Ginny Tait is also seeking solace in country living, desperate to rein in her rambunctious twin daughters.

They all think that moving to a calm, quiet and beautiful village in the Cotswolds will solve their problems. But in Honeycote, things are never quite as they appear . . .

Full of fun, warmth and style, A Country Life is the second book in the Honeycote trio, which also includes A Country Christmas and A Country Wedding. Each can be read as a standalone, or they can be read as a series.

Critic reviews

Veronica Henry writes like a dream and I enjoyed every minute of this brilliant novel. A glorious Cotswold setting, lots of naughty goings-on and pacy storytelling par excellence - who could ask for more? (Jill Mansell)
A real page-turner

Anna Benfleet was very good at changing her voice to the do the different characters in this very family orientated book. She made the book come alive. lots of interesting stories with the different characters in this book.

very good narration

Up to Veronica’s very high standards. A fascinating tale of 4/5 couples all intermingling and ending up with a very feasible climax, in more ways than one ( yes she can be a bit naughty )

Potent ale from the brewery

It's definitely a figurative page turner! A bit crasse in places and quite 'posh English', but still lots of interesting stories and character development.
The reader was great at voices and accents! Just varies volume a lot so sometimes I couldn't hear bits. I bought the 3rd one!

Good
