When Lady Esme Byron happens upon a gorgeous naked man sleeping beside a secluded country lake, she can't resist the impulse to sketch him. But when her highly improper drawing is mistakenly revealed at a party, she finds her once-pristine reputation in tatters. Gabriel, Lord Northcote, may be a notorious rakehell, but he is still stunned to find himself accused of despoiling a duke's sister - especially since he's never set eyes on her.

Agonizing narration
Revisado: 01-20-23
I’m sad to write this review.
Narrator has a lovely voice but doesn’t know how to use it.
Advice to the narrator: read the chapter ahead of time before narrating.
Remember, there are no periods after every word…
Practice practice practice, and maybe you can narrate another book.
Advice to listeners: Listen on x1.1 or 1.2 speed to make it bearable.

Romance, fun story, good banter, LOL , and a truly great narration!
Very well written as always, Tessa Dare does not disappoint with interesting characters, lots of humor and romance. I enjoyed this entire series and can’t wait for the next book.
Mary Jane Wells is truly Amazing, she’s quickly becoming my favorite narrator for this genre (along with the master Rosalyn Landor) With a rich voice, good character differentiation, excellent tone and pace. An audible treat for your ears!
Story: 5 stars, very entertaining.
Performance: 5+ stars, Mary Jane Wells is AMAZING, Bravo!
Very Worth a Credit. Just get it!

Cassandra DeWitt has seen her husband only once - on their wedding day two years earlier - and this arrangement suits her perfectly. She has no interest in the rude, badly behaved man she married only to secure her inheritance. She certainly has no interest in his ban on her going to London. Why, he’ll never even know she is there. Until he shows up in London too, and Cassandra finds herself sharing a house with the most infuriating man in England. Joshua DeWitt has his life exactly how he wants it. He has no need of a wife disrupting everything.

What a Gem! Fun, witty, complex love story.
Revisado: 09-22-20
This book was such a surprise, What a Gem for this genre!
Well written love story, complex characters, funny and witty banter along with some obstacles and deep emotions.
Story: 5 stars. I disagree with others, this book is not too long.
The love story develop gradually, characters are developed more deeply, we are invited into the relationship and understand why the characters fall in love with each other. And along the way, we fall in love with them.
Side characters are interesting, and I look forward to reading more books in the series.
Bravo Mia Vincy, keep writing please, and producing audiobooks!
Narration: 5 stars. It is superb as always. Kate reading has a rich voice, narrates and acts beautifully, distinguishes between characters and acts men voices well. She also adds a subtle comedic undertone, that is priceless. It’s like a vacation for my ears :-)
Heat factor: simmering to hot, as part of a committed relationship.
Highly recommended!
Audible Please bring more in this series.

Britain moves ever closer to the 1745 rebellion and the impending attempt to restore the Stuarts to the British throne. With no other options available to her, Beth marries the effete and tedious social butterfly Sir Anthony Peters. She resigns herself to a future of formal parties and dismal social gatherings whilst accompanying a husband who is both tiresome and physically repellent to her. But she consoles herself with the thought that if she is not to know love, then, at least she will have a secure and comfortable life.

This book is even better than Book 1. Well done Julia Brannan!
Intelligent writing, historical details and continued building of characters. It reveals a few great surprises and adds other secrets to continue the story to the next book.
Be advised that this series does need to be read in order, as the story develops directly from book to book.
You can’t have a better narration than this, it is artfully edited and feature with two of the best narrators for audiobooks.
The Narration is SUPERB!!! Bravo!
Highly recommended! This author and narrators have become and automatic download for me!

This book is such a nice surprise. Good intelligent writing, historical details, great building of characters and story!
The Narration is SUPERB! I wish every book would be narrated such.
READ SERIES IN ORDER. The story develops from book to book. Get Book 2, to get some (fun) answers.
P.S you may think that one male character is overly played, but more is revealed in Book 2, and it will makes sense.
Highly recommended, Bring more in the series, please !!!

Really Bad :( ...Not recommended !
Revisado: 10-08-19
Had potential but....
Sorry to say this about any book, but the writing is not good, the story is immature and full of cliches. I rolled my eyes a lot, and seriously forced myself to finish listening.
Narrator was pretty good, and that is the only reason I could continue listening. But even this talented narrator couldn’t save this audiobook.
Not worth your time, Not recommended!

Workaholic attorney Samantha Sweeting has just done the unthinkable. She's made a mistake so huge, it'll wreck any chance of a partnership. Going into utter meltdown, she walks out of her London office, gets on a train, and ends up in the middle of nowhere. Asking for directions at a big, beautiful house, she's mistaken for an interviewee and finds herself being offered a job as housekeeper. Her employers have no idea they've hired a lawyer, and Samantha has no idea how to work the oven. She can't sew on a button, bake a potato, or get the #@%# ironing board to open.

Treat your ears, Rosalyn Landor is AMAZING!
Revisado: 09-22-18
THE BOTTOM LINE
Story: 3.5 stars, cute, original and humorous modern romance
Performance: 5 stars, AMAZING, a real treat.
Relationship/ heat: nice, slow simmer
Overall: 4 stars, very enjoyable, easy summer read. Worth the credit!
THE BIG PICTURE
Others wrote about the book, which is delightful and entertaining, but I had to write about the amazing narration by Rosalyn Landor. Any book narrated by her is a treat for your ears!
I have always been a fan, but I listened to historical novels narrated by Ms. Landor, and thought that she was perfect for that genre. I was pleasently surprised to hear this contemporary narration so different and so on point! It was wonderful!
RL is able to change her voice, her pace, her accent and her intonation to fit the period of each book and each character beautifully.
Ms. Landor has a beautiful rich voice, adapting different voices to each character, and she is especially gifted with male voices. It is remarkable how she is able to distinguish between characters in such a masterful manner.
RL achieves what very few narrators are able to do, she actually acts, performing the book WITHOUT OVER ACTING.
A real treat, enjoy!

Not a Pleasure...Confused book, Disappointing!
Revisado: 07-28-18
BOTTOM LINE
Story: 2 stars, had potential but confused
Performance: 2 stars, over dramatic, distracting
Relationship/heat: not well developed, based on physical attraction, a lot of ‘sex’, sizzling heat.
Overall: 2 stars, just ok. Maybe next book in series will make sense.
BIG PICTURE
I hate to write it. I usually really love Sarah MacLean, so I was looking forward to this title. But it just OK. The Series actually has an interesting premise, and it is intriguing, but somehow it becomes tedious and confused. It seems the author is relying on intense physical attraction to create the relationship of the main couple, seriously overused the word “ Pleasure“ in descriptions of intimacy, and its hard to keep track of the characters and their roles.
Maybe it's the over dramatic narration that distracts from the story, but I was waiting for it to end...
I usually like Justine Eyre as well, but in this one she over acts, and over emphasize certain words (Pleasure pronouced PLEAAsure), so they sound ridiculous. There should be a certain finesse and subtlety to reading sex scenes, which is lacking here.
OVERALL disappointing, I can’t even tell if it’s the story or narration, maybe the next book in series will be better and make sense . Not worth a credit, SORRY.

Bad! Enough said!
Revisado: 04-28-18
The Bootom Line:
Story: 0.5 star for effort. Really bad, stupid dialogue, after 7.5 hrs I just couldn’t finish this book.
Performance: 3.5 stars. Bianca Amato was great, Jonathan Davis was ok. But even their talent could not save this book.
Relationship/heat: odd development, shallow characters, bad. Some attempts at steamy scenes didn’t deliver.
Overall: Don't do it, not worth it even free, not worth your time!
The Big Picture:
Very sad to write this.I prefer to love a book.
Big disappointment, not worth writing a full, big picture, review. Sorry....
