About this listen

'Every day is a perfect day to read this’ Shari Low

Eleanor Sharpley has been living a lie...

Needing to escape her London life quickly, Eleanor throws her things into the back of her car, and heads to her erstwhile best friend Charlie’s family farm.

But Charlie isn’t there. Instead she finds Charlie’s grieving brother Daniel, her eight-month old daughter Hope (a daughter Eleanor had known nothing about), and a crumbling and unloved Damson Farm.

Damson Farm lies at the edge of the village of Ferrington, with the river Maddon flowing at its heart. But Ferrington is a village divided by more than just a river - it is split in two by an age-old feud – between the Old Side and the New Side. Eleanor has run from her problems, straight into a family and a world that has problems of its own.

But Damson Farm has magic too, and as winter gives way to spring, the old farm starts to come to life under Eleanor’s love and care. The orchard starts to blossom with daffodils and bluebells, and the sound of bees busy in their hives fills the warming air. Can Eleanor bring Daniel and the feuding village of Ferrington back to life too, or will her secrets catch up with her first?

Number One bestselling author Beth Moran’s books are heart-warming, funny, and completely addictive. Perfect for all fans of Jill Mansell, Julie Houston, and Jenny Colgan.

The book is ok - well read - nice holiday listen but very predictable. Christmas every day is better

Perfect when you need a comforting, light, if predictable, book.
Well written with believable characters, and lovely descriptions of scenery.
My first Beth Moran - but certainly not my last.

A lovely, comfortable listen.

Although pretty predictable I enjoyed this book. It was a good listen while I worked. The narration was good too.

Easy feel-good listen

I have listened to a few of Beths books now and am sadly disappointed in this one. I got to chapter 16 and it felt so slow I ended up skipping to 4 chapters to the end to get the jist of what happens in the story. Sadly this was through no fault to Beth however as i truly believe this Narrator just isn’t suited for audiobooks, her reading pace was too slow for listening to (to the point I actually put the book on 1.2 speed just to make it bearable to listen to, which i have never done before after years of listening to audiobooks) and her accents for some of the characters were slightly confused and hard to locate what regional dialect she was going for. I will continue through my library and hopefully in the future i will attempt this again with the knowledge that increasing the play speed is necessary so i can hear the full story

Badly narrated

Enjoyable enough and I was really getting into the story until I got to the part about bees and the beehive. Although only an incidental part, and not integral to the storyline, it nonetheless rankled. Even the minimum research about bees will reveal that there are no male bees in a hive. They are all female. A limited amount of male bees are produced during the spring for the sole purpose of fertilising new queens. Once they leave the hive they cannot re enter and, any that try to return are killed off. Hence an ‘ all female hive ‘ that overwinters. Therefore, the suggestion that the bee keeper would give her bees male names and refer to them as ‘boys’ is quite ridiculous, as any bee keeper would know that they are, in fact, girls.
At this point, although I was enjoying the book, the author lost all credibility, in my eyes.

Glaring error about bees!
