Publisher's summary

Lady Euphemia Marlington hasn't been free in 17 years - since she was captured by Corsairs and sold into a harem. Now the sultan is dead and Mia is back in London facing relentless newspapermen, an insatiably curious public, and her first Season. Worst of all is her ashamed father's ultimatum: marry a man of his choosing or live out her life in seclusion. No doubt her potential groom is a demented octogenarian. Fortunately, Mia is no longer a girl, but a clever woman with a secret - and a plan of her own....

Adam de Courtney's first two wives died under mysterious circumstances. Now there isn't a peer in England willing to let his daughter marry the dangerously handsome man the ton calls The Murderous Marquess. Nobody except Mia's father, the desperate Duke of Carlisle. Clearly Mia must resemble an aging matron, or worse. However, in need of an heir, Adam will use the arrangement to his advantage....

But when the two outcasts finally meet, assumptions will be replaced by surprises, deceit by desire-and a meeting of minds between two schemers may lead to a meeting of hearts - if the secrets of their pasts don't tear them apart....

Contains mature themes.

A Bit of Everything

I’m so happy to have found this one. It has everything. A great story. The characters are witty. The hero and heroine had both been through so much in their lives. They deserved their happy ending. The love scenes were so steamy yet tasteful. There was also interesting adventure involved. The author developed a superb story and I absolutely loved the narrator’s sultry voice. She pulled off the male and female characters’ voices well. This didn’t cost a credit. It’s included with membership. I’m grateful and have listened several times. You will enjoy it!

Very exciting and action filled for the last 1/3 of book

This was an interesting listen. First the heroine, Mia, is a very interesting character. She has spent the 17 years since she was 14 in the harem of a Sheik in Northern Africa. (Initially, I thought they were saying Iran but they were saying Oran. Then they explained it was in Africa by the Mediterranean Sea.). She had just gotten back to England and her father is embarrassed by her and wants to marry her off. She has a whole lot of secrets. Enter many suitors one of which is Adam, a Marquis. He has been married twice before but his wives died. He has three daughters but he needs an heir. Mia’s father specifically approaches Adam and introduces them. He wants Mia to pick one of the gentlemen NOW. She is 31 and he is 37 or so. Neither is newly out of the schoolroom and their relationship becomes very interesting. There are a lot of sexual encounters in this book but because of Mia’s experiences in the harem of the Sheik their encounters can be quite funny. He just doesn’t get her but she continues to surprise him to his delight. As I said, the last 1/3 of the book is quite exciting with reformed pirates, sword fights, ransoms, palace guards, and Mia not listening to Adam when he demands she does as he says. Of course, there is a happy ending but it is fun getting there with them.

The narrator is another English actor asking a lot of questions when there aren’t any. It really started to bother me during the exciting part but I pushed on because I wanted to know the details.

Bad pronunciation!

Why on earth doesn’t anyone even attempt to pronounce the names of main characters correctly? All they have to do is go to Google and type in “how do you pronounce…” to find out. Hasn’t the narrator ever heard of Khalil Gibran? She pronounces Gibran like it’s gerbil. I would have awarded 5 stars but for her bungling.

Great Beginning to a Series

The narrator read slowly- so I set the speed to 1.25. Loves the unusual story.

A tad boring

Storyline seemed drawn out and just subplot for sex scenes. Started out interesting then just fell off. Got so bored I didn’t finish it.
