In Jeffries' charming School for Heiresses series, Charlotte Harris establishes a school for young ladies, both in an effort to sustain herself in her widowhood and to impart the lessons she learned by falling for a rake that married her for her inheritance. The school is successful with the guidance of an anonymous benefactor known only as "Cousin Michael," who is actually Harris' old beau setting her up for a humiliating fall. In this last book of the series, the school's reputation and future is threatened, but Charlotte isâto her amazementâable to find support from an unlikely source. Narrated by Justine Eyre, this historical romance will enchant listeners. Eyre's voice and tone are perfect, as are her depiction of the characters that populate this audio edition. She ably creates sweet, light voices for young ladies, sophisticated and haughty voices for adult women, and aristocratic, arrogant voices for upper crust men. A Pocket paperback.
