Everything has changed. Except her heart.
Arabella Godwin is an Incomparable in London Society-elegant, wealthy, and meticulously trained. Yet, she has nothing to show for her efforts aside from her pretentious reputation and a collection of disappointed suitors. When her plan to secure a promising offer of marriage is temporarily delayed, she must bide her time in the company of an estranged childhood friend-the much-too-endearing, but regrettably untitled, Augustus Brundage.
As the friends’ tattered relationship returns to familiarity, Arabella must prevent herself from fully regressing into the carefree, impressionable young lady who once foolishly trusted Augustus with her heart. To make the same mistake again would ruin everything she has worked for-and certainly more.
But can a heart be so easily trained?

YES! YES! YES! 🎉❤🎉 Ma’am you are quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. I rarely, if ever read books twice but The Nabobs Daughter is one that I cannot stop thinking of! The narrator is a true spoken word artist. I can’t wait to get started on this one! I left comments on other audiobook threads for others to check out your work. Just in time for my “weekend” thanks so much! - New fan in SW Missouri 💛

I have completed the book and it felt so different from your other titles. My eyes were opened wide to the potential actions of mothers who lacked so much in the emotions department with men that they molded or tried to in this case to mold their children harshly into a concept ruled by games manipulations and pretentions. Even though this is a work of fiction two truths trumpeted forth 1. Love is real. 2. Time reveals the depth of that truth. This was so well written. Thank you do much for posting. I throughly enjoyed this. Bravo 👏🏾

Good books are like good friends - they comfort us in hard times and they make us smile a lot on sunshine days. Thank you for doing just this for me. I'll check out more of your works. 🙋🏻‍♀ I was a bit disappointed that book 3 of the series is not available here on YT Couldn't find the author, Ashtyn Newbold, or any of her books on YT other than an interview... perhaps someday? Her title sounds very promising. Would love to listen to the complete series.

Thank you for your sweet comment. And yes, because the series is a multi-author project (each book is written by a different author), not all of them are on audio yet. But I can tell you that Ashtyn Newbold is a fantastic author and "The Last Eligible Bachelor" is definitely worth a read until it comes out on audio. ;)

@@AuthorJessHeileman? I am surely missing something here. This is book 2 in a 3 part series but you are not the author of the other books? How does that work? Each person decides the personality of the characters? Is it a continuation of the character’s journey or each book has the same characters in total different worlds?

I thought at first that she was less obnoxious than her mother but after mentally sitting on my hands so as to not slap the uppitty out of her these last several minutes, maybe that apple didn’t fall far after all. Ready for her to grow up and quick. 😐

I must concur with the other responses. The Nabobs Daughter was a refreshing and endearing story and this is the same. So glad you touched on the general sterility of the emotional tenure of this time and space. Repression... im only about a fourth of the way in but already i appreciate you so much.

Agreed. Haha. She's the absolute worst in the beginning, but I truly felt inspired to write her story. I enjoy all the wonderful heroines we so often get to read about in these historical romances, but many (if not most) young ladies in the ton would have actually been raised similarly to Arabella, and I wanted to give that overlooked perspective--the one that so often show up as the antagonist or contagonist in other stories. Hopefully she grows on you if you keep listening. And if not, that's okay too. Not every book is for every person. ;)
