Seeking Patience was an enjoyable and interesting story to listen to. It is the first book that I have read by this author and I really enjoyed it.
The narration was pleasant to listen to and the narrator did a good job with reading the book. I thought that the story was a clever tale, unlike any I had read before. I have not read many stories involving gypsies and it was nice to listen to a novel with a half-Romany main character.
I liked these two main characters. Their attraction to each other was rather sudden, yet perhaps it was this way because of the situation they found themselves in. They had a lot to overcome throughout the story and they struggled with how they could ever be together due to their different lifestyles, as well as past hurts and betrayals that impacted their trust in others.

ABOUT THE BOOK:
Do people prove their worth by strength, or by character? Half-Romany, half-English lord, he lives a perilous Gypsy life … until a sweet English rose saves his life, and perhaps his soul. Widowed by a cruel husband, she’s given up all hope of love. Brought together in peril, they dare to reach for a brighter future together.
Luca Boldor, Romany leader, lives a nomad’s life in Regency England with his Gypsy caravan. Believing his noble father abandoned him at birth, he refuses to acknowledge his English blood, or live a settled life.
But when a vicious attack by a rival leaves him bleeding on an English lady’s doorstep, he has no choice but to accept her help. Her gentle faith stirs his heart in a way he has long denied. Lady
Patience Blakwell, widowed countess, lives in near poverty. Her husband’s heir uses threats to keep her from demanding her rightful inheritance. With a few faithful servants, she exists quietly in the country, only her faith keeping her strong … until the day a bold, handsome Gypsy collapses in her hall.
He’s unlike any man she’s ever known, and she’ll confront any subterfuge to keep him safe. But when a secret from Lady Patience’s past emerges, Luca must face his own past, or lose her and all hope of love. Will this strong man humble himself to open his heart for his lady?
