Serena Carlow's former love now controls her future happiness. After her father's unexpected death, Serena's jilted ex-fiancé—the Marquis of Rotherham—is made the sole trustee of her wealth and marriage prospects. Eager for an escape, she moves to Bath and encounters her childhood sweetheart, the dashing Hector Kirkby—but will Rotherham approve the match? Before long, they are all entangled in a confusion of marriage and manners the likes of which Regency Bath has rarely seen.

Entertaining plot, sub-par narration
Revisado: 05-09-25
I’ve read many Heyer novels and this was an enjoyable one. There is a dash of a certain kind of realism in the story with the nod to Serena’s capabilities as a political hostess and the acknowledgment of real flaws in both main characters.
The narration was not very good. The tone was not irritating, but the pacing was odd and at times felt weirdly clipped. (As in, I checked to see if it was accidentally on 1.5 speed when it was not.) Also the narrator was not able to distinguish clearly enough between different voices and therefore the dialogues were sometimes difficult to follow.

When Alexander wakes up with gum in his hair, he thinks that maybe it’s going to be a bad day. When he trips on the skateboard by his bed and drops his sweater in the sink, he knows it’s going to be even worse than he thought. His brothers find fabulous prizes in their cereal boxes; he finds cereal. His best friends get fancy desserts in their lunch boxes; Mom forgets dessert. From being scrunched in the car on the way to school all the way to lima beans for supper and kissing on TV (yuck!), the day just keeps getting worse. It’s enough to make him want to move to Australia.

way too expensive ($6.95) for a 5 minute reading.

It really is only 6 minutes long, but well read

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes, because it was funny and I liked the narrator, but no because it is not worth purchasing as an audiobook. I just didn't realize that it was really only 6 minutes long. Since a movie was recently made out of it (and I have never seen the hard copy of the book) I thought there was going to be more to the story.
