Publisher's summary

One encounter changes everything.

When the Earl of Rancliffe suffers humiliation at the hands of the mysterious Mademoiselle Noire, he vows revenge. But his anger soon becomes obsession, as she leads him into ever more dangerous games.

As cruel as she is beautiful, Mademoiselle Noire has no intention of revealing her true identity, nor of entangling her heart.

But in a world of vice and dark desire, what does her heart secretly yearn for?

Devour this boxed set, which comprises all three darkly sensual romances from the Dangerous Desire trilogy.

Addictive, thrilling, passionate!

Dark but good

I like the erotism of the author’s stories but this one started really dark and kinky. It grew on me very quickly and the characters and mystery was superb. The narration and special events were very well done.
Highly recommended

Excellent Period Piece with Extra Sauce

Engaging story true to the period with plenty of spice to boot. Listen and enjoy the adventures of Earl of Rancliffe, the mysterious Mademoiselle Noire, and the Earl's sister. Told over 3 books with excellent narration.

Full of action

These books are full of so much action. The narrator brings so much to the telling. Loved the accents. My favorite was the 3rd book, loved the mystery, suspense, and so much more.

Enjoyable

This was a delightful boxset. I enjoyed all the stories. The narration was good and it was easy to follow. I enjoyed all the characters and there individual stories. This was steamy and fun with a wonderful atmosphere and great ending.

Gothic erotica

This author is my go-to when I want something steamy and dark, with a gothic feel, and this trilogy is why. I've previously read the novellas individually, but listening to them added a decadent touch that I really appreciated. There's music, and sound effects, and Gareth J Davies has a voice that transported me to another time and place. It was magical, dark, and delicious.

A trilogy well worth the listen

Book One
Extremely steamy and very well written.
Two people with dark desires drawn to each other navigate their feelings for each other.

Book Two
Cecile, Lord McCaulay’s sister is now an integral part of this story.
Henry and Maude’s relationship evolves and Cecile spends time in a dark and gloomy castle in Italy.
This story is also steamy but brings with it a dark character that is intent on revenge.
Maude and Henry’s dark sexual tendencies lead to peril.
There is plenty of danger, lies and a mystery to be solved.

Book Three
Cecile leaves the castle unscathed along with one of it’s inhabitants, Lucrezia.
Traveling on their transatlantic crossing to Rio de Janeiro, Henry, Maude, Cecile and Lucrezia hope to recover from their previous bad tidings in Italy.
With no such luck murders and mystery seem to follow them.
Henry enlists Lance, a previous acquaintance of Cecile’s to help him protect the ladies from harm.

I really enjoyed listening to this trilogy.
It’s a story of how you can find love in the most unusual places, evil a plenty, revenge, mysteries and true friendship through sacrifice.
You can buy all books separately but it is best read as a trilogy to get the full scope of the story and how it all pans out.
Please be advised the first two stories are dark but integral to the storyline.
Wonderfully written and narrated.
Lucky enough to have the ebook and the audiobook.

Fantastic as Usual

I have read a number of Emmanuelle de Maupassant’s books and have also bought the accompanying audiobooks. I find that Gareth Davies does a great job narrating this trilogy. From the first few sentences you know that you are going into a world that you may have only imagined. I recommend this audiobook/novel to individuals who are not put off by intense descriptions of the male anatomy nor that of the woman, nor the sex scenes which are really descriptive and make you close your eyes and imagine what it would be like.

Both steamy and sweet

I listened to an audiobook of this trilogy. I enjoyed the story, but could listen to the narrator read the newspaper, a boring business report, or pretty much anything.. He’s that good.

These books are both sweet and hot. They revolve around true love and finding your soul mate, and good wins over evil.

There are some shipboard murders, BDSM, and multiple partners, if such things are important for you to know.

The writing is very good, but as I said, the narration is excellent. If I had a complaint about this book, it was the periodic intrusion of music into the narration. It didn’t help or add anything to the story.

I received the audiobook from the author for free. I thank her for her generosity, but it had no effect on this review. All opinions in this review reflect my true and honest reactions to reading this book.
