    Well done! As an artist myself, I thought this story was brilliant, and your narrator, Marian Hussey, brings it alive with the richness and nuances of her voice. I have no idea how she does it! I listen half to the story and half to her skill, the interplay of characters and emotions.
    I don’t like the fact that the story was written in a dark period for you, but THANK YOU for your resolve to see it finished! In my opinion, it is a triumph of perseverance! I think you had to have grown through it. ❤️ Congratulations.

    I drive over the road. I've really enjoyed these stories during my long drive. But this last one had me in tears. Neil might have started off as a scoundrel but the way he embraced the role of father to Caroline has turned him into a saint in my eyes. Thank you for making this truck drivers run so much brighter. I can't wait to hear more🤗

      Knowing that my stories have been a companion on your long drives truly warms my heart. It's especially moving to hear how Neil's transformation and his journey with Caroline touched you. Characters who grow and evolve in unexpected ways are some of the most rewarding to write about. Thank you for your kind message, and I'm delighted to have made your runs brighter. More stories await, and I hope they continue to be a joyful part of your travels. Safe driving and happy listening! 🚚📚🤗

      Thank you so much! I am NOT comparing myself to the greatest of artists and authors out there, but it's somewhat encouraging to know that many of our favorites struggled with depression, anxiety, etc., and yet wrote some of the most enduring literature in history. I recently went to the immersive Van Gogh experience and fell even more in love with his work. His best paintings came between periods of self doubt, depression, and other tragedies. Yet he gave us such beauty. I think it is something the creative mind must feel very acutely. I'm grateful my family loves and supports me through it all.

Just delightful to listen to when one wants to escape reality for a little while. Thanks for sharing your stories and bringing joy and love to us. Very much appreciated.
    Somehow you make us feel being part or witness the life of his extended family and community. The characters reappearing make them feel more real, and like acquaintances who one gets curious about their life stories. One day we will see them all in a TV series, I am sure.

    This is a wonderful story! Its authentic voice comes through brilliantly. It is gentle, humble, and real. I do love the recording artist you chose, also, and I truly enjoyed your author's notes. Your voice is lovely in its own right. I was blessed to hear your author's notes, your honesty and depth of truly researching your choice of unfamiliar circumstances, the world of art in a different era. Thanks for hours of listening pleasure, in a season of rain and monochromatic gloom. You indeed have brightened my life. I do believe that Heaven's moments will often be filled with people's stories, even on a higher, more spiritual note, directly glorifying God and His work in our lives, miraculous or at least providential answers to prayer and breathtaking rescues even before there is time to pray. Stories are the memorable stuff of our lives.

    This is a delightful story on it's own, and a perfect bridge as you extend our journey through the lives of characters from Inglewood. It was fun to have glimpses into the lives of individuals from the first series. And as others have mentioned, I especially appreciated "Lord" Neil's appearances. I remember when his book came out I wasn't sure I even wanted to read his story. Lol, I'm so glad I did, as his personal growth was perhaps the greatest of the other area residents. He became a lovely, mature man, and is now a wise, concerned and caring father. Beautiful.
    Thank you for not using Claude as a means to bring tension or heartache to Edward and Caro's relationship! (I get so tired of that scenario.) Thank you instead for causing the two young people to exercise courage in communicating forthrightly with each other (eventually). A great way to reduce/eliminate heartache!
    Your author notes at the end of your stories are a real highlight for me, and I appreciate that you include them for those of us who like more insight into your endeavors.

    • @AuthorSallyBritton
      @AuthorSallyBritton  Год назад +1

      I am delighted you enjoyed the story so much! And that you're a fan of Neil. He's a wonderful father, so much more loving and caring than what was ever modeled for him. As for Claude - I really like him, too. I wanted him to be somewhat of an echo of what Neil used to be. Someone misjudged. Someone with depth not even the heroes can see. Don't be surprised if he pops up in another story somewhere. And YES to good communication! If characters are going to be poor communicators, there needs to be a very good reason behind it. I prefer people who say what they're thinking. :-)

Bringing depth to characters like Mr. Everly is important to me, so your recognition of that effort is much appreciated.

Thanks for being there with me to you, your team and family. I had tingles listening to your unedited author notes and personally love your voice. A great big thanks for this U Tube version. I couldn't have done these books any other way. So much appreciation for being the stories that took me through some of my art therapy course ( I hope I can help others one day ) but Mostly for getting me through very long nights. That came after the sudden death of a most beloved special Olympian winner, my wee sister. So much genuine gratitude to you all. If you ever wonder what your works do for the world, I must say....they have helped and healed me greatly. ❤

    Imagine my joy upon learning that we would get to interact with one of my very favorite characters, Lord Neil. Due to this, I suppose, I especially loved chapters 1 and 21 where he had more of a role. This took away nothing from Edward, whom I loved. "I love you with everything I am or will ever be." What a wonderful line you gave him! I'm so glad to have Marian Hussey to reprise her talent to lend to our beloved characters. You mentioned your digital designer, Shayla Kay. I love the touch she added with the butterfly and bunny in this one. Did she do the design for "Unsuitable Suitor"? There was a tiny pigeon in that. It is like a game to find the tiny surprise details. 😊 I said that I was thrilled to find this new posting, but I am sad, too. I have listened to all the books currently uploaded. 😔I started with "The Captain and Miss Winter". I feel that I didn't get all the detail of it, so I am going back for a re-listen. ☺I very much look forward to your next books. You wondered if we enjoy hearing the author notes. I certainly do! I am so sad to hear of your dark place. I know that that is a terribly hard place to dig back out of, but the key is that you did it, and you can be proud of that achievement! I hope that those times get fewer and fewer and less deep as time goes. It CAN happen! I know. From one heart to another. 🥰

Truthfully, since discovering your audio books here...which is my current favorite thing to do, listening to audio books while multitasking elsewhere on my computer, I have started buying more of your books to read. I'd read one or two and really enjoyed them, and purchased them when they sounded good and were on sale. But until I started listening to your audios I hadn't really discovered the families of stories and how they worked with and off of each other. There is so much to love about these people. They are so real, complicated, human, good and bad. Most of all, endearing. Thank you Sally Britton.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you ! Your efforts are greatly appreciated. You give life to your characters and stories. The human experiences of daring to dream, opening to love, coming to grips and striking out are beautifully expressed in your stories. Your narrorator is wonderful. The author notes, for me, convey the feeling of being invited into your study for a chat and a cup of tea❤

    Lord Neil's story was my favourite from the original set and I really enjoyed continuation of his story through Caroline's story. Edward seems to be the constant husband an artist wife needs.
    By the way, though we have discovered a lot about Claude but nearly not enough and he seems to be an interesting character, like lord Neil, who needs his own sperate book. Just a suggestion 🙏🙏

    • @AuthorSallyBritton
      @AuthorSallyBritton  Год назад +3

      I'm thrilled to hear how much you've enjoyed Lord Neil's journey and its continuation through Caroline's story. Edward's role as a supportive partner is indeed crucial in their dynamic. Your suggestion about Claude is very timely and intriguing. While we've uncovered layers of his character, there's certainly more to his story waiting to be explored. Let's just say, the idea of giving him his own book is something that's been on my mind too. Stay tuned, and thank you for your insightful comments and enthusiasm for the characters! 🌟📚

      An in-depth book of Claude? My thoughts too, @ the his reactions to Edw’s proposal…onto his Uncle’s study to observe Edw’s declarations, Finally, to his Pa! Why? His exposing the decisive ole Man to his “only son”. Declaring his dislike for all of the family & their false honor lead by his Uncle’s abusive behavior and hate for his brother & own Father…dishonorable actions toward his brother & redesigning his life @ sea…By the way Sally, you recaps are the “cherry on top” especially this particular best work! Introducing “The Mona Lisa”, brilliant! Got to see it after found & back in its home!❤

Thank you for sharing these wonderful stories!

    @ceridwen888 Год назад +2

    Thanks for sharing your journey as well as your work. I loved Caroline's discovery of the Mona Lisa. The painting by Sir Thomas Lawrence was 'Satan summoning his legions' and evoked strong reactions when first displayed. It was apparently inspired from Milton's ‘Paradise Lost’, Book I, line 330, 'Awake, arise, or be for ever fallen'.

    • @AuthorSallyBritton
      @AuthorSallyBritton  Год назад +1

      You are 100% correct on Sir Thomas's painting. It was quite divisive. But it shows such emotion! Can you imagine his disappointment when it was so poorly received?

  • @RC-Illinois369
    @RC-Illinois369 Год назад +2

    Thank you for this story/novel. Even though it is a period piece it hit home in these modern times.
    Personal authenticity, parents trying to live their dreams/lives through their children, truth - would you want to know. Emotional bondage in the guise of familial love, 'honoring one's parents' can really staightjacket personal authenticity. Parenting is a difficult balance.
    Claude's revelation was a superb twist as well as how his father's commission was bought. 👏💝

    • @AuthorSallyBritton
      @AuthorSallyBritton  Год назад

      It's deeply gratifying to know that the themes in my story resonated with you, bridging the gap between the Regency period and modern times. You've touched on some of the core issues that make these characters and their journeys so compelling-struggles with personal authenticity, familial expectations, and the quest for truth. Your insights into Claude's revelation and the complexities of his situation are spot on. These are the kind of thoughtful reflections that inspire me as a writer. Thank you for sharing your perspective and for your appreciation of the story's nuances. 🌟💖

    • @AuthorSallyBritton
      @AuthorSallyBritton  Год назад +1

      Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your thoughts! I'm delighted to hear you enjoyed the story. Regarding Claude, he's indeed a subtle yet pivotal character. His role is to challenge and provoke the hero, leading to significant moments of realization and growth. Sometimes, characters like Claude, who may initially seem superfluous, are essential catalysts in a narrative, sparking crucial developments.

    This was lovely and all of the detail about art really made it come to life.
    Considering how unwell you were this long book is an extra treat.
    I love the scene where Edward ponders the statue of David and journals all of the emotions necessary, then immediately produces the expression needed.
    Thank you for this emotionally intelligent Neil as her Papa, giving sound advice and support. He really has come a very long way. It was wonderful to see him interact with his twin boys too.
    I was shocked about Mr Everly. I had hoped before the wedding day we would see him gift the couple with something. I still find myself wondering if Caroline sold some landscapes to help fund their trip.
    Shall we have Charity next? I could see her running an orphanage with her future husband. Or perhaps a rehabilitation story.
    Thank you for gifting us with the siblings and children of our favourite Inglewood characters Sally.

    • @AuthorSallyBritton
      @AuthorSallyBritton  3 месяца назад

      I am so glad you enjoyed the story! It was a delight to write. Mr. Everly is, unfortunately, very set in his ways. Even though he's been quite wrong. I don't always redeem my characters who behave poorly, because in real life people don't always mend their ways, either.

    Thank you, Sally, for returning to Inglewood!
    God has truly gifted you and you are using your talent to encourage others.
    I especially appreciate that your novels are CLEAN!
    Others that state they are clean are still a bit too spicy for my taste, therefore you are my FAVORITE!
    Your narrators have great talent at interpretation of your work, not to mention very pleasant voices!
    I listen when I'm awake and also fall asleep listening so I have to "rewind" several times.
    Did I miss the REAL reason Claude appeared?
    I did hear where Mr Everleigh had invited Claude.
    Was it simply to goad Edward to marry and produce an heir?
    Also, I love how you redeemed Neil, former "scoundrel" yet further.
    I look forward to hearing your future book about Claude.
    I'm thankful you were able to come out of burnout through this novel.🙏🙏🙏
    Sincerely, A Fan
    PS: I saw another listener had mentioned re-listening to "An Unsuitable Suitor" and found "Romancing The Artist".
    The same happened with me.
    I was delighted to see this new work and puzzled why it took 11 months for me to see it.
    Again, thank you!
