Jody in Minneapolis

it could have been so much better

Revisado: 03-26-25

both the hero and heroin were boring. For a young man probably in his late twenties he had no idea how difficult it would be to start an expedition to remote islands north of Russia. Sand castles in the air. The story had absolutely no Steam and I wasted 6 hours waiting for something to happen.

Tedious and Boring.

Revisado: 09-19-24

Uneventful, boring people. You could fast forward to chapter 17 which is 3 hours remaining and probably no just as much if you listen to it from the beginning. I like the other two books but this one was tedious.

Good Story STEAM FREE SWEET Romance

Revisado: 05-02-24

Nothing but a few kisses here. I love stories of misfits and this foots the bill. Loved Danny, too. Too bad no one edits these virtual voice as they are riddled with errors.

WOW the 2nd is More Risque Than The First Book

Revisado: 04-03-24

Holy Smokes! This one is scorching with it's intimate scenes, just the way I like them. It's 1860 and this story is about the niece to the main characters in book one, 25 years later in America. All the family is here but it's 18 year old promiscuous Grace's story. Knocked up by a married man on the ship from America back to England, Grace finds refuge in the kind, soft spoken vicar's curate Benedict the virgin. The book gave me a few OMG gasps and I'm half way through listening.

And I absolutely LOVE Philip Battley. These 2 books remind me so much of his readings of Emma V. Leech's series Rogues and Gentlemen. When 2 opposites come together and the ending is very happy.

Loved Charlotte and Frank!

Revisado: 03-30-24

First, I have had a crush on Philip Battley for quite a few years. His narration and voices are yummy!

The plain, plumpish girl gets the randy viscount. Can't wait for more books. The story was wonderful and very steamy (explicit/dirty.)
Not at all like Austen and Heyer.

No Editing? stupid plot. no steam

Revisado: 03-27-24

0 steam, excessive duels, SO MANY mispronounced words: she moped became mo-ped like scooter, beaus was bows (greeting bent at the waist) and a dozen more. Are these books not listen to by an editor before going public?

Stupid

Revisado: 03-03-24

The guy "lost his fortune" in a drugged state in a card game? Only to wish to "regain my fortune." I was thinking there must be a stolen dog named Fortune because the story was so stupid.

Good Virtual Narrator and Wonderful Story

Revisado: 02-29-24

Under 3 hours, this one is short and spicy sweet! A feisty gal and a French smuggler come together in this Napoleonic tale. Fun, witty, and steamy, it's what I love in my hist-roms. And the voice was great! Listen to this one!

Dot Oh Zero Oh

Revisado: 02-29-24

Dot oh Zero oh. The virtual voice is so much better than a lot of the real narrators out there. I listen to MANY books per month and there are very good authors whose readers are so terrible, I will not listen to them, ie Justine Eyre and Heather Wilds.

Who is editing these stories? So many mix-ups by the virtual voice (such as should for shoulder.) And why the dot oh zero oh? Those should have been removed. I really liked this book.
