Publisher's summary

A woman with no name and no memory...The two men who claim her: one with love, the other with fear...A dazzling tale of secret passions—and a love tragically lost and miraculously reborn—by the incomparable storyteller.

Mere days after Ashton Wingate's wedding to the enchanting Lierin, capricious Fate stole the Mississippi plantation owner's beloved from him. Now, three years later, his carriage has collided with a cloaked rider on horseback: a woman who bears an uncanny resemblance to the young bride who was swallowed up by the merciless river.

She awakens from unconsciousness in his magnificent home with no memory of who she is. Yet the tenderness of this noble, caring stranger who lovingly calls her "Lierin" soon captures her heart and enflames her with wanting. Then another enters their lives, threatening to destroy the happiness they have rediscovered in each other's arms—the dark and dangerous Malcolm Sinclair, who claims the enigmatic beauty is, in fact, his own wife, Lenore. But Ashton has sworn that he will not lose his adored one a second time, and he will risk any peril to preserve their newfound joy—no matter what the unremembered secrets of his lady's past ultimately reveal.

Still Outstanding!!

It is impossible to pick one thing!! I adore the author and have read and own several of her books! I have read this one myself, although it has been a very long time. This is my first Audible! I am hooked! Excellent read, details, just amazing! thank you!!

I enjoyed this Woodiwiss because it wasn't too long. Characters were well developed and the plot was believable.

I liked the length and the characters! Give us more of romance and intriguing plots.

Narrator sold the story!

I rate the story a 3.5, it was interesting; but it is Cassandra York who breathed life into this book and gave depth to the characters. She does a particularly good job with “male” voice performance- loved the sexy, southern accent of the H. It was a fun read!

What an amazing mystery romance!

Come Love a Stanger is another Kathleen Woodiwiss story that I absolutely adore. This story takes you through so many turns it keeps you on the edge of your seat reading it. I won't gives plots away and the synopsis is there for you, but the heroine and hero keep fighting the whole way through to be with each other which other forces are trying to stop them. It is that premise that is so intriguing. This should be a mini series along with Woodiwiss's A Rose in Winter. The narration is amazing by Cassandra York, she always does an excellent job.

the narrator did amazing

the ending was very rushed it was such a good story deserved a better ending.

love Cassandra York!!

once again we are submitted to a condescending, insulting "preface" that thinks grown readers can't understand a period novel. HOWEVER, once you get past that, this is a wonderful love story/engaging mystery!!! unlike some of the other Kathleen woodiwiss narrators (Shanna, ashes in the wind, a rose in winter), Cassandra does a BEAUTIFUL job narrating! even her make voices are believable heroes. great job for a great book!

Terrible narrator.

I’m sure the story was good but it was ruined by the narrator. Rosalyn Landor would have been the best one to narrated the book

Crthesewer

Own the book for years. It’s so nice to have it in audible’s library.My eye sight isn’t what it used to be. And the narrator did a great job.

Yay!! Loved it!

Got in trouble for sneaking a headphone at work. I’ve waited forever to get this on audible.

highly recommend

loved this story years ago in print. was worth the wait and the credit! Only complaint and it might just be how I read her name in print, the pronunciation of Lerin as lee-erin, doesn't flow as smoothly as how I heard it in my head.
