A twist of fate…
Lord Joshua Stuart, the second son of the Duke of Beaufort, has never fit in with the rest of his family. Though he has a practice on Bond Street, he’s always preferred working in Cheapside, where he can make a real difference. It has nothing to do with his attractive, sweet neighbor across the street, or so he tells himself. But when Kate’s school is threatened, Joshua knows he must help her.
As Joshua and Kate work to save the school, they grow closer, until their love for each other can no longer be denied. Their search brings them to the famed fortune-teller Madame Zeta, who holds the key to Kate’s past. But when Kate’s fate intertwines with Madame Zeta’s, nothing will ever be the same. Will her love for Joshua survive fortune’s twists, or will they end up as the final folly?

Overall, this was a very sweet, enjoyable listen. The narrator delivers in a calm British accent that is very soothing and lends itself well to such a sweet story. I very much enjoyed the story between the two romantic leads. Their romance was so genuine and they had lots of reasons to care so much for each other. However, the romance was really only the first half of the book. The second half of the book was more about long lost family and family secrets. This is fine and that story was well done also, but I was just hoping for more of the romance, and not this other storyline. I haven’t read the other books in the series so maybe this is a payoff from reading the rest of the books. Overall, worth a listen if you enjoy sweet books with romance and family drama. I was given a complimentary copy of this audio book in exchange for an honest review.
