Barbara Taylor Bradford was born in Leeds, Yorkshire, and was a reporter for the Yorkshire Evening Post at age sixteen. By the age of twenty, she had become both an editor and a columnist on London’s Fleet Street. In 1979 she wrote her first novel, A Woman of Substance. Since then she has published thirty more works of fiction. Many have been made into television miniseries and movies of the week. Her novels have sold more than 63 million copies in thirty-nine languages worldwide. She lives in New York City.
Rose, Gavin, Neil and Kevin were all orphaned as teens and have bonded into a family. Neil and Rose learn to accept love into their lives as Gavin and Kevin face their limitations. Lorelei King provides a glowing voice and suitable accents for the characters, ranging from French and British to New York Italian. (Her British pronunciation sometimes trips on American words.) King smoothly moves from scene to scene and wraps this romantic tale in sweet tones that transport the listener. M.B.K. (c) AudioFile, Portland, Maine
