Much has happened in idyllic Ivy Hill in recent months, and while several villagers have found new love and purpose, questions remain--and a few dearly held dreams have yet to be fulfilled. Jane Bell is torn. Gabriel Locke is back and has made his intentions clear. But Jane is reluctant to give up her inn and destine another man to a childless marriage. Then someone she never expected to see again returns to Ivy Hill. . . . Mercy Grove has lost her school and is resigned to life as a spinster, especially as the man she admires seems out of reach. Should she uproot herself from Ivy Cottage to become a governess for a former pupil? Her decision will change more lives than her own. A secretive new dressmaker arrives in the village, but the ladies soon suspect she isn't who she claims to be. Will they oust the imposter, or help rescue her from a dangerous predicament? In the meantime, everyone expects Miss Brockwell to marry a titled gentleman, even though her heart is drawn to another. While the people of Ivy Hill anticipate one wedding, an unexpected bride may surprise them all. Don't miss this romantic, stirring conclusion to Tales from Ivy Hill.

I'm so glad this series is going to have another short novel because I am really not ready to leave Ivy Hill. I think I could listen to at least a dozen of these nice chunky novels and still not get tired of this quiet English town. I loved returning to the stories of Rachel, Mercy, Jane, and their friends.
It was fun seeing the number of brides in this story (there isn't just one!...that title should have been plural...) and the villagers who reunite or reconcile with family. A circus comes to town and a new seamstress. There's a small boy named Jack Avi, fresh from India, who quickly stole my interest and who soon plays a role in Jane's life.
The audiobook is well narrated and I enjoyed every minute of the listen.
Thanks to the publisher for a free reading copy. A favorable review was not required. However, I listened to a final copy via my library's audiobook collection.
