About this listen

It is one thing to defy convention . . . but quite another to completely thwart it in the pursuit of insatiable desire.

His Grace, Martin MacGalloway, has well-earned the reputation as the most celebrated rake on the entire isle of Britain. But upon his father's sudden death, he heads for Scotland, where he finds his inheritance in a shambles, his sisters without prospects, and his brothers relying on his patronage—and he's not about to conquer his problems alone.

Penniless, Lady Julia St. Vincent has no choice but to dress as a man and accept a position as steward to the Duke of Dunscaby. The more time she spends with the duke, the more difficult it is to ignore the flickers of passion smoldering in her heart.

While they work together to rebuild the Dunscaby dynasty, they travel to London, where Martin takes it upon himself to introduce his sheltered steward to the world of manly pursuits. Julia falls from one mortifyingly compromising situation to another as she pines for a duke she can never have . . . until an old friend invites her to a masque. And there, it takes but one kiss for Martin to stop at nothing in his pursuit of the mysterious woman.

Contains mature themes.

Outstanding story

This is an exciting and beautiful story. And a very clever story at that. A story that touches on every class in society. Wonderful character development and descriptive detail. Ms. Jarecki is a superb writer and this story is a new favorite of mine.
Narrator Phillip Battley has a pleasant sounding voice. I would like to hear a more sexy, sensual voice for the hero of the story. After all, the hero of the story is the one who captures our hearts. I didn’t really detect a lowland Scott’s accent in the hero of the story but a handful of sentences. Mr. Battley needs improvement as a narrator. With that said, I would get this audiobook. Do not pass it by. I think From all the narrators I’ve heard from this publisher, Mr. Battley is the most pleasant to listen to.
So that is good. If he narrated with the superb accents & emotion Tim Campbell narrates with, then Mr. Battley would have received 5 stars. Overall an outstanding story and definitely one to purchase.

very unrealistic

I love Amy's books. This was a disappointment. To believe he didn't know he was a she is too implausible. The story seemed rushed, deadline looming

Just ok

I liked fantastical story but this one seemed very unlikely. Women posing as a man fine but the guy saw her naked and looked right into “his” eyes and didn’t recognize her! Narration was all right but PB made Martin sound a little foolish at times.

Sweet Funny HOT

Philip Battley I love you!
The story was cute (albeit a common story line, h girl poses as young man who falls in love with Hero) and the sex was great! I purchased this book because I fell in love with Philip reading Emma V Leech's books in the Rogues and Gentlemen series. He is an amazing voice actor!

Hiding in plane site

A well put together story of desperation leading to breaking societies norms. And how easily people can be fooled.
