Everything has a price....

Railway magnate Tom Severin is wealthy and powerful enough to satisfy any desire as soon as it arises. Anything - or anyone - is his for the asking. It should be simple to find the perfect wife - and from his first glimpse of Lady Cassandra Ravenel, he’s determined to have her. But the beautiful and quick-witted Cassandra is equally determined to marry for love - the one thing he can’t give.

Everything except her....

Severin is the most compelling and attractive man Cassandra has ever met, even if his heart is frozen. But she has no interest in living in the fast-paced world of a ruthless man who always plays to win.

When a newfound enemy nearly destroys Cassandra’s reputation, Severin seizes the opportunity he’s been waiting for. As always, he gets what he wants - or does he? There’s one lesson Tom Severin has yet to learn from his new bride:

Never underestimate a Ravenel.

The chase for Cassandra’s hand may be over. But the chase for her heart has only just begun....

Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time


The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

Glad it was reactive to the current cultural and political issues for women. Makes it deeper than your average romance novel. Severin is a complex but good guy that’s seems to be on the spectrum in an interesting twist. His character is written well to give a truer understanding to what it means to be on the spectrum and trying understand building a relationship.

Plus finally a deflowering scene that doesn’t make me cringe with questions of consent and concerns of gentleness. Would all teenagers.....and men read this.

Good wrap up

I love Lisa Kleypas's book. She has created an intellectual latently caring person as the male character that has stolen my affections . This is one of my favorites.

a tender evocative romance

I’ve always loved the covers of the books in this series.They have been recommended, or caught my eye many times. But for whatever reason I kept pushing them aside. I think it may have had to do with what might have been said in the reviews. But I’ve really done myself a disservice if the rest of the series is like this book.

First of all the narration was excellent. Mary Jane Wells is a favorite of mine and she strengthened my esteem for her in this book. I absolutely loved her voice for the orphan Basil, I loved the innocent yet sometimes mischievous voice she used for Cassandra and I loved the bored tone she used for Tom. It made his dry humor even more funny when he made the occasional joke.

This is one of those books I MUST own in book form.

The Hero Tom is unfeeling. In fact he has only allowed himself 5 feelings and he decided to do away with the rest of them. But after meeting Cassandra, he has more feelings than he knows what to do with. He tried to cling to his way of life for as long as he can, but the moment Cassandra is in trouble he realizes he is willing to move Heaven and earth for her.

I love that as he is discovering his new feelings, Basil enters his life and slowly worms his way into Tom’s heart right next to Cassandra. This was such a full and satisfying story, I can’t wait to go back to the beginning of the series and read everyone else’s story.

Why did I wait?

The story is sweet and we see the "chase" . But I found the chase a bit tedious at times and wish there was more of a dramatic revaluation at the end. like many of Lisa Kleypas books.
I always adore MaryJane Wells I believe she is my favorite narrator

Good but not up to others books in the series

Brilliant depiction of a self made man. A lady of the Period wishing for love and family. Attracting each other causing a change in both.
Just couldn’t stop listening until the end/

I really enjoyed this book it brought back some of the sexy dry humor that we experienced in Devil in Winter , however those expectations could not be meet, Sebastian remains my all time favorite he so far sets the bar of sexy, come full circle of the reformed rake! I do absolutely have high hopes for Ewen in Daring and the Duke coming out this summer by Sarah MacLean, but as of now Lisa Kleypas reigns!
This was an excellent written book, that I completed in a day. A perfect storm or sugar and spice. The passion was steamy, the humor was wry and the characters so well developed and colorful that it’s for sure a favorite. I am very sad to see this series end it was amazing each book worth reading. This book is truly 4.5 stars! You won’t regret reading. Great job Mrs Kleypas.....again!

I loved that the Cassandra was not whinny or coy!

Excellent final book!
