    I loved this story, and was transported to the time and place by the wonderful narration of Catherine Billson.

    Oh this was so DELIGHTFUL!!! I love that you had Eugenia and Phoebe realize the pattern they’d allowed themselves to fall into and have a conversation acknowledging it
    Also I am DYING at John trying so hard and FAILING to make himself understood

      Thank you! I have a pet hate of stories where people just don't TALK to each other... and one-dimensional villains, too. Eugenia doesn't even realise that she's become the villain in Phoebe's story, her intentions are good.

    This was such a sweet story. Now I’d like to know what happened in Denmark. I did a lot of smiling in this all too quick listen 😊. Thank you.

      Thank you so much! I've occasionally thought about writing a sequel series where we catch up with Phoebe and John a couple of decades later, where he's finally been promoted to Ambassador and now they are raising kids in the Danish royal court... maybe one day, but I have way too many WIPs right now to think about it!

      Thank you! I've got at least 4 more full free audiobooks - planning to put up one a week - and I'm in talks with some of my clients to put up 'teaser chapters' of their work too. Problem is that TH-cam doesn't allow ANY of the spicy stuff so have to be careful what I can share!

    A lovely, heartfelt story, to be a young single dependent woman must have been quite frightening & demoralising, with a very uncertain future that was at the mercy of either close family or distant relatives that didn’t want you for you but as an unpaid companion or governess. Young women of today have so much freedom of choice yet sometimes it seems too me they squander their vote, which was very hard won by my Grandmother’s generation who fought very hard for that right too vote, it saddens me that it’s thrown away & ignored completely sometimes. Many thanks xx

    Catherine, l,love your stories. Can you please get a bloke to read one? Your voice is good, but l am aware all the time lm listening, that it is a woman reading this and can’t concentrate on the story. I am 84 and have been writing stories and listening to audio dramas etc. for over 30 years. Apologies if l offend. Please keep these coming.

      No offense taken, and thank you for listening! Unfortunately, it's just not in the budget for me to pay a male narrator - I wish it was. I can only afford to do this because I'm putting in the effort myself rather than paying someone else to do it.

      @cathbilson  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      It's a period appropriate term which was applied (often in a not very nice way) to women who were considered a bit too clever for their own good!

    • @HopeUnquenchable
      @HopeUnquenchable 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Yeah, “blue stocking” was what many people of that time would call any woman who was as well-educated &/or well-read as the gentlemen of that era had the opportunity to be, despite ladies being barred from the same type of education as gentlemen 🤓
