Acerca de esta escucha
It is whispered behind the fans of London's dowagers and in the corners of fashionable ballrooms that scandal follows willfully wild Lady Beatrix Lennox wherever she goes.
Three years before, the debutante created a sensation by being found in a distinctly compromising position. Now, the town has branded her as unmarriageable, her family has called her a vixen, and Beatrix sees no reason not to go after what - and who - she wishes.
And she wants Stephen Fairfax-Lacy, the handsome Earl of Spade. Beatrix, with her brazen suggestions and irresistibly sensuous allure, couldn't be more different from the earl's ideal future bride. Yet Beatrix brings out a wildness in the earl he has tried to deny far too long. Still, he's not about to play love's game by Lady Beatrix's rules. She may be used to being on top in affairs of the heart, but that will soon change.

Her Aunt Allegra said, "A young lady with a fortune is subject to all sorts of untoward attentions by the worst sort of vagrants." It is a lesson Tabitha Timmons, a penniless spinster, has never needed to heed. That is, until she is left a vast fortune payable only upon her marriage to the very respectable Mr. Barkworth - a match that offers little chance of discovering exactly what her aunt means by "untoward attentions." But the same can't be said when the Duke of Preston happens along Tabitha's path....

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
No.What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
I enjoyed the development and interactions of the characters. I did not find it believable that the moral issues of today repeatedly appeared in this story.Have you listened to any of Justine Eyre’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
This was an excellent performance.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I enjoyed the performance and the flow of the reader, however I became so exasperated when the story became too farfetched and had to turn it off for a while.Current issues and ideas set in the wrong century.

What did you love best about A Wild Pursuit?
Beatrice, Esme and the other charactersWhat other book might you compare A Wild Pursuit to and why?
I really also enjoy Dance Upon the Air and the 3 Sisters Island Trilogy by Nora Roberts and Nora Roberts Bride Quartet, Eloisa James' A Kiss at Midnight, books about friendship and women's lives.What three words best describe Justine Eyre’s voice?
throaty, husky, deepIf you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Fun Romp in Regency England, better than Jane Austen!Any additional comments?
I like this book, it is the 3rd in Eloisa's Duchess Quartet and she has another Duchess series after this series, her other series Fairy Tale, I really enjoyed A Kiss at Midnight and the Ugly Duckling and I have preordered Once Upon a Tower.Eloisa's writing is witty and in real life she is a Shakespearean professor so there is some poetry and her books are very well written.
My only critique is I wish the love scenes were more like Stephanie Laurens, those will get you hot and bothered and Stephanie Laurens doesn't make them crude with certain vulgar body parts. James' sex scenes aren't hot enough for me but I really enjoy the stories and in the case of this book, I have read it 3x in print and bought the audiobook and I purchased A Kiss at Midnight the other day and really enjoyed it after reading A Kiss at Midnight two years ago.
My favorite Eloisa James book so far.
