About this listen
Welcome to Willoughby Close...a charming cluster of cozy cottages, each with a story to tell and a happy ending to deliver.
Emily David didn’t want to move to Willoughby Close. She was perfectly content in London, but when her boss, Henry Trent, asks her to relocate, she’s left with little choice. Emily prefers living on her own and finds comfort in her routines. But the well-meaning residents of Wychwood-on-Lea are determined to include her in their friendly circle - a prospect Emily finds utterly alarming.
When sparks fly with local pub owner Owen Jones, Emily’s safe and fragile world threatens to shatter. She has too many secrets to keep, and Owen’s gentle understanding could be her undoing. But as Owen persists, Emily’s heart softens, and she begins to discover the wonder of trusting friends - and falling in love. That is, until she discovers Owen has a secret of his own....
Can Willoughby Close work its charm and magic once more? And can someone who has been determined to stay lonely find - and trust - love right on her doorstep?

A gentle story
A story written by an author with rose tinted spectacles about the Cotswolds. It was a lighthearted read, but the narration is awful. Maybe better to actually read the story as a physical book.

First in the Series was better
Disappointed in this one, thought I was going to love it but didn’t because couldn’t really get a grip on the female protagonist. She certainly couldn’t play the corporate game very well. She was a total wimp.

An easy going story spoiled
The story of Ellie - single parent who’d left Manchester to save her geeky daughter from the bullies - as she tries to settle in a small Cotswold village and while working at Oxford University. Much against her wishes, she ends up falling for her boss, a somewhat repressed, upper class Professor who, in a Henry Higgins way, prompts her to begin finding herself and mentally separate herself from her waster ex husband.
I had hoped that I could tolerate Justine Eyre’s narration - but apart from the mispronunciation of English words (‘Mo-bill’ ‘Bacon booty’), the same voice is used for the characters in book 1 that she adopted in book 1. And therefore she implies English men are all constipated

something to listen to
These books are easy to listen to but why use an American narrator when the books are set in England. Can't help thinking an English narrator would pronounce the words correctly

Rather twee storyline
The narrator was awful, with silly Americanisms sprinkled through which truly annoyed me.
I won’t be listening to any other books in the series.

Forgettable
Forgettable story and didn’t love the narration. The narrator made the male characters all sound like they were whining. Not worth paying for but OK as a free book
