About this listen

A snowstorm hath no fury like a spinster scorned

Miss Elinora Browning grew up yearning for the handsome, intelligent lord-next-door…but he left England without a word of farewell. One night, inspired by a bit too much sherry, Nora poured out her heartbreak on paper. Lord Dashwood Missed Out was a love letter to every young lady who’d been overlooked by gentlemen—and an instant bestseller. Now she’s on her way to speak in Spindle Cove when snowy weather delays her coach. She’s forced to wait out the storm with the worst possible companion: Lord Dashwood himself.

And he finally seems to have noticed her.

George Travers, Lord Dashwood, has traveled the globe as a cartographer. He returned to England with the goal of marrying and creating an heir—only to find his reputation shredded by an audacious, vexingly attractive bluestocking and her poison pen. Lord Dashwood Missed Out, his arse. Since Nora Browning seems to believe he overlooked the passion of a lifetime, Dash challenges her to prove it.

She has one night.

I left some very critical remarks about the narrator of the previous novel In this series, Eva Kaminsky. I dreaded having to listen to her again reading this book.
She did such a good job this time! Her exaggerated accents and mispronunciations were gone. I’d be happy to hear her read another book.

The story was not very interesting but I did like the humour involving the 4 husbands and their camaraderie. And the inhabitants if Spindle Cove too,

A very slight story with a much improved narrator

She has written a pamflet about her disappointment of being left on the shelf, and has made a career out of it.
He returns doesn't like that it is about him, so plans revenge.
She caves, puts a tiny protest, then lives happily ever after.
All characters are boring, the fight might have been a highlight, but we missed it.
