About this listen

New York Times best-selling author Lisa Kleypas returns with an enthralling and steaming romance between a Scot with a mysterious past and strong-willed lady looking for adventure - and love.

“The devil never tries to make people do the wrong thing by scaring them. He does it by tempting them.”

Lady Merritt Sterling, a strong-willed young widow who’s running her late husband’s shipping company, knows London society is dying to catch her in a scandal. So far, she’s been too smart to provide them with one. But then she meets Keir MacRae, a rough-and-rugged Scottish whisky distiller, and all her sensible plans vanish like smoke. They couldn’t be more different, but their attraction is powerful, raw, and irresistible.

From the moment Keir MacRae arrives in London, he has two goals. One: Don’t fall in love with the dazzling Lady Merritt Sterling. Two: Avoid being killed.

So far, neither of those is going well.

Keir doesn’t know why someone wants him dead until fate reveals the secret of his mysterious past. His world is thrown into upheaval, and the only one he trusts is Merritt.

Their passion blazes with an intensity Merritt has never known before, making her long for the one thing she can’t have from Keir MacRae: forever. As danger draws closer, she’ll do whatever it takes to save the man she loves...even knowing he might be the devil in disguise.

Absolutely incredible!

Devil in Disguise is the latest book in the Ravenels series by Lisa Kleypas and it is yet another spectacular piece of literary artistry. Lisa is a master of character development and the dialog is so perfectly crafted that you won’t be able to put this book down. Her brilliant turn of phrase is unmatched in the genre of historical romance and the action and intrigue she weaves into every story brings a level of of excitement and intensity that draws you in from the first page and never lets you go. I love to see the characters return from her previous books as this story centers on one of the second generation of the Ravenels. Mary Jane Wells is so phenomenal and her distinctive voices and accents (Scottish, British, American, Irish) are so spot on that if you didn’t know better you would swear that this was a multicast production. Her male voices are completely swoon-worthy and her female voices are so elegant and sophisticated that I wish I could listen to her all day, every day. I only wish that Lisa Kleypas would publish more books and more often because I could consume them on a daily basis. Time to start over from the beginning on an epic re-listen of all of her series. Definitely a 5+ star listen and worth a credit every time.

A Perfect Book to Continue the Ravenels Story!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book from beginning to end!

What did I like about it?
Everything!
Unlike her mother Lillian, whom I have always judged as very brash and ridiculously callous, Merritt is one heroine that I have no complaints about! She is headstrong, passionate, a risk taker, and also very playful and fun! Keir is the perfect blend of overtly handsome, passionate, and funny!

I thought this book was going to turn into a “While You Were Sleeping” story, but it quickly went in a different direction.

The only complaint I have is that it was over too quickly, and it left me wanting more!

Mary Jane Wells is an incredible actress! Her delivery of the lines are very clever! Her dialects are impeccable, and although I started this book reading the paper back, I had to switch to the audio just so that I could hear the Scottish brogue!

Definitely deserves a five out of five!

Swoon

This might be my favorite of all of the Ravenel’s Series. Kier is a darling man with such a quick wit. He just wants to be simple Scot, then his world turns upside down. Merritt is a fantastic character as well and they are a lovely couple. The narrator is phenomenal! I love her interpretation of the dialogue! I gave 4-stars because the story was a little too similar to Garrett and Ethan’s.

Lisa & Mary Jane

I don't feel this was the best of the Wallflower series. But I loved Mary Jane Wells she is delightful. I have listened to her other books with Lisa Keypad and have enjoyed them all. This one however can not get a 10 from me. Maybe a 6.I got confused at the end.

The guy gets the Cinderella story/ glow-up

The most satisfying male glow-up that I have ever read/heard. I listen to this book whenever I need to feel good after a long hard day at work. Pro tip for those who can’t get over the woman narrator speaking the male lines: focus on the deep baritone tone infused by the narrator when it’s the male character speaking. Our brain will switch, I promise.

I LOVE the story, not to mention the amazing performance by Mary Jane Wells. It would be so amazing to be able to meet these characters in real life. So fun!
