About this listen

When a penniless Viennese musician is told she may be an English duke’s wife, a quest for lost love begins.

Amid the glamour and intrigue of the Congress of Vienna, Lena Arenheim and her musical family perform at aristocratic soirees to make ends meet. When, out of the blue, the sister of the arrogant Duke of Aldingbourne proclaims Lena to be her brother's long-lost duchess, her safe but small world is turned upside down. Amid opulent ballrooms and echoes of forgotten memories, Lina embarks on a quest to uncover the secrets of her past.

For Julius Stafford-Hill, Duke of Aldingbourne, the wounds of a tragic loss still linger after eight long years. When he encounters a woman who bears an uncanny resemblance to his late wife Catherine, he will do anything to uncover the truth, even if it means immersing himself in her world and facing the everyday challenges of a common middle-class life.

Can the lost duchess be found, and can they rebuild a love that transcends the boundaries of time and circumstance?

This is a sweet and clean Regency romance and the first book of the Viennese Waltz Series:

Set against the backdrop of Vienna’s 1814 elegance, diplomacy, and intrigue, this series twirls through the entwined destinies of friends, enemies, and lost lovers in charming tales of love, desire and courtship.

So good!!

I just loved this book. It’s a highly engaging historical romance full of political intrigue, forgotten identities, and the bond of family.

A duke and his lost duchess are given a second chance in marriage when she is discovered alive and well 8 years after the tragic accident that was thought to have taken her life. She has lost her memory and started a new life, having been taken in by a kind doctor and become a mother to his 3 children and her own son, whom she was found pregnant with. Though the doctor has since died, they remain a tight and loving family of performing musicians. It’s during one of their performances that she is seen and recognized by her husband.

This is a beautiful story of new and rekindled love as their lives once again cross and blend together. This book is sweet and heartwarming, and I can’t recommend it enough.

Content:
There’s no foul language, violence, or sex. There are many mentions of mistresses and infidelity, but the romance itself is limited to a few lightly descriptive kisses. There is no real mention of God or faith.
