About this listen

He’s inherited every English boy’s dream car. But to hold on to it, he’ll have to get his hands dirty.

Eric Sibley loves his upscale job and the good life it provides. So when the corporate climber inherits his father’s Aston Martin DB4, he’s excited to drive his wife and daughter around in style. But he’s shocked to discover he can only have the flashy auto if he agrees to get a little mud on his polished shoes.

Confined to the will’s strict guidelines, he has no choice but to venture far from his London office and keep his father’s community veggie patch growing. But his hare-brained shortcuts to worm his way out of the obligation only dig him deeper into trouble with his worried wife and the meddling rural greenthumbs.

Has Eric spoiled his stake in the allotment and ruined everything, or will his failed schemes reveal the very thing that matters most?

Peas, Carrots and an Aston Martin is a heart-warming novel from the Peas and Carrots humorous fiction series. If you like crazy capers, quirky characters, and brilliant second chances, then you’ll love Kindle Storyteller Award winner Hannah Lynn’s madcap tale.

I didn’t know what to expect with this book. But I was pleasantly surprised and couldn’t stop listening once I started. Moving onto book 2 now.

A great listen

When George Shipley dies, his almost estranged only son, Eric, expects to inherit everything: the house, any money, his mother's jewellery and Sally, the 40 years old Aston Martin. Eric and his wife had already planned how they were going to spend their new found wealth. But George had other ideas and, despite not being religious, left everything to the church. Apart from the old Aston Martin which went to Eric, provided that, for two years, his son weekly tended to an allotment in the home town of Burlam, over an hour's drive from his home in London's Islington. The book follows Eric's struggle to balance family and work pressures with trying to keep his only inheritance.
Narration is by Rafe Beckley whose reading is well paced and intoned, and who gives separate voice to each of the characters. A nice performance.

Simply but powerfully written, this very amusing story turns grumpy confrontations and quirky characters into laughter. And it is an absolute must read for any gardening fans. At times poignant and often funny, the book is the first in a trilogy which i, for kne, look forward to reading. I was very fortunate in being freely gifted a complimentary copy of Peas, Carrots and an Aston Martin, at my request, by the rights holder. Thank you. The book was great fun but also wise without ever being preachy. I thoroughly enjoyed it and recommend it to anyone looking for a gentle comedy (with vegetables and a car!)

A solid soaking of saliva.

I have loved listening to this audiobook and giggled most of the way through. I was only going to have 10 minutes to see what it was like and ended up listening to most of it in one session!!!

iIt is set around an allotment after the father of the main character died and left him an allotment and a car but he could only keep the car if he tended to the allotment on a weekly bases.

The narrator made the book come alive and he read it well
