Graham, Lord Blakemore, was believed to be lost at sea as a boy. While his mother, Lady Agatha, has never given up hope of finding her son again, others - eager for the title and the wealth that accompanies it - have been conspiring to have him declared dead against Lady Agatha's wishes. Her only ally in the house is her late husband's ward, Miss Beatrice Marlowe.  

But when a dark-haired stranger arrives on their doorstep claiming to be the lost heir to Castle Black, the plots and schemes of those who would have the castle for themselves take a dark and even more sinister turn.  

An orphan when she came into the care of the late Lord Blakemore, Castle Black is the only home Beatrice has ever known. Its occupants are her family. This stranger, who claims to have lost his memory of his life there, threatens the order of all that she knows and holds dear. And yet, she is both drawn to him and strangely compelled to believe his claim. Beatrice finds herself torn between her desire for him and her belief that if he is the lost lord of Castle Black, he is far above her reach.

If you are looking for Romance, history, drama, murder and intrigue! Then look no further than the Lost Lords series! Bought to life by the fab narration of Esther Wane...worth every credit!!

Excellent series

Great plot, good characters. Unfortunately, the writing was disappointing. Perhaps a better narrator could have saved it but I have my doubts.

Pedestrian

Good take with lost heir mystery and romance. A very enjoyable listen, quite a refreshing change for a regency novel. Could have been improved with a more versatile narrator and less of the yawn inducing sex.

Regency with a twist

Oh this had so much potential. The storyline was good, but its execution was poor…

The narrator was missing something, most importantly, the voice that she gave to Graham, which also confused, because aside from loud and gruff, on occasion changed accents! In the telling of his story, Graham states that he didn’t fit in with his crew mates because of his accent, but he comes across as Northern (Yorkshire?), by no means ‘gently’ born…

Beatrice was just so weak and flimsy, that she struggled to come across as a strong, robust woman.

Plus, in my opinion, the narrative was too long. It could have been much shorter. I didn’t really enjoy this, it didn’t live up to its potential. I’m glad that it’s an Audible Plus title.
