Masked Love by Nicole Zoltack

4.0

Every once in a while, I really enjoy a historical listen. This novella by Nicole Zoltack slipped in between some of the more angsty, contemporary listens I have had and gave me a real feel good story. The Masquerade ball during the Christmas holiday led us to several characters. Isabelle, maid to Theodosia and Theodosia's betrothed Adrian. There are sparks flying everywhere at this ball, the problem resulting that it's not with the couples that are expected to be in love. With their upcoming nuptials during the holidays, Theodosia and Adrian are set in a quandry...marry as their arranged marriage suggests or go against their parents and marry whom they love. Lots of issues and secrets are released but you will have to read or listen to find out how this first book in the series ends. I loved results and way Nicole was able to capture the times.

Melanie Fraser narrates this book with her regal sounding voice. I love her when she reads historical romance, always giving the book the sound of importance, yet includes the passion and emotions of the characters. This book is a must listen!
