Summary

A heart prepared to die that has never lived or loved...

Born with fragile health, Dawn Uxbridge has lived a sheltered existence. Her lonely days are filled by drawing fanciful landscapes and nurturing plants. When tragedy strikes, she finds herself alone and penniless with only one talent - a green thumb.

Jasper, the Earl of Seton, is in need of a gardener to reclaim his derelict estate in the remote west of England. He expected a robust commoner, not a fragile young woman.

With the next train a week away, Dawn has one chance to change the earl's mind and earn her place. But all is not as it seems at the ancestral manor. The estate is full of secrets. Ravens cluster on the parapets, and a ghostly young woman cries out at night. This garden conceals a rotten heart, and it plans to squeeze the last beat from Dawn's....

Contains mature themes.

Dawns promise

I have really enjoyed the Artifact Hunter series by this author so this was my next foray into her work. I have to say the storyline was ok it was a really slow burner. What I really struggled with was the awful pronunciation of the narrator. I will read the next couple of books in the series not listen to them!

Very strange accent

Good story but nearly had to stop listening due to the bizarre accent the narrator has put on. I’d rather have someone’s natural accent rather than this put on posh one. Unless you knew the heroine’s name was Dawn due to the title, you’d think she was called Don. The way that she elongates certain words and doesn’t say the end of words is something that gradually irritates.
