About this listen

Isabella Snowley knows full well that her family are on the brink of ruin, which is why she must try to stop her brother from getting himself killed in a silly duel. Tracking down the aloof Earl of Colbourne and asking him to withdraw made perfect sense when she formulated the plan. But standing in a dark street at four o'clock in the morning has quickly shown Bella her foolishness.

Duncan Ash, Earl of Colbourne, is used to having unmarried women throw themselves at his feet in the vain hope that he might marry them, and it has given him a distaste for the ton. So when he stumbles across a young woman out alone in the middle of the night begging for an audience with him, he can only think the worst of her.

A few minutes in the company of Bella Snowley, however, convince him that he has just encountered a creature out of the common way, and that pursuing his acquaintance with her might even justify a foray back into the world of the beau monde.

With everything set against them, Bella and Duncan find out that falling in love can be surprisingly easy with someone who can make you smile. But, sometimes, life can conspire against you. Those with an interest in the fortunes of the Snowley family might have quite a different fate in mind for Bella and make her choose between her own happiness and that of the family she loves so much.

~ Georgette Heyer Like Novella. Strong Heroine

These delightful novellas (series = 9 books) were written by the author for her mother, who had worn out her Georgette Heyer books from multiple readings. This is #3. Only minor mention of characters from #1. No through story. Heroine meets an Earl when attempting to save her impoverished brother from a debt induced duel. Romantic endeavors unfold.

Book #3 in Regency Romp Series Does Not Disappoint

Julia Eve does a fantastic narration to the third book in the Regency Romp Series. Elizabeth Bramwell does a great telling of a headstrong and honorable lady's romance.

She was saved by a man she thought was out to ruin her and her family.

This story had a man as creepy as Weinstein.

Duncan is a man of worth and knows sometimes a young buck only needs a lesson to see the error of his ways. Duncan meets Belle at time she was scared for her family. She stands up to him and saves the day.
This is a sweet story though the creepy old man gives it crawling on the skin feel. But author brings light to the story to keep it from going too dark.
The narration is good as always with Julia Eve.

A romance with a gambling twist...:)

It's the third book in the series (though each one is, luckily, a stand-alone:)) and this time Ms Bramwell adds a bit of "darkness" into the story... But as it's a sweet romance we know right from the start that there is going to be a happily ever after so we do not fret and eagerly await the solution to all the meddlings of the malicious "gentleman" that threaten the happiness of Isabella and her Earl:)

As in the previous two books, the plot is swift and fast-paced, the characters lively, most of them likeable, and they feel real, with their strengths and weaknesses, with deeds of courage as well as unwise decisions made on the spur of the moment. There is gentle humour in the story and there are also moments when emotions run high... It's a definitely engaging listen:)

As with the previous two books, I'd like Ms Eve to read a bit faster; but overall the narration is really good. The voices are very well done, both male and female, and the emotions ring true, so overall I liked it.

Short and sweet historical romance

Short and sweet historical romance. I liked this book because the hero didn't deny his feelings and that always annoys me. The heroine was pretty funny.. actually the whole book was pretty funny. So if you are in the mood for a humorous and sweet HR, I highly recommend this book.

His Darling Belle - Book 3; a delightful story

When Isabella Snowley tracks down the Earl of Colbourne (a sworn bachelor) in then middle of night to stop him from engaging in a duel with her brother after the brother drunkenly insults the Earl during a card game. The Earl refuses to be persuaded, but eventually decides to teach the young pup a lesson by merely shooting him the shoulder rather than mortally wounding him. Soon thereafter the Earl realizes that Bella is a unique, one-of-kind gem, and he’d be a fool to let her go.

A delightful story of Duncan trying to "catch" Bella with a dastardly villain with a like mind.

His Darling Belle

Isabelle will do anything to save her brother from his foolish ways, but he may be in a situation that even she can’t get him out of.

Elizabeth Bramwell has given us another stand alone story with a strong female lead. I’m really enjoying these regency romances.

Julia Eve brings this story to life with a strong performance.

Darling romp

While this story has some serious moments and in fact people get shot, the general tone of the story is humorous. It is an easy read with good characters. I wanted to slap some sense into the brother more than once as it was clear to all but him what was going on and he was stupid enough not to seek help from his family. And Belle needed some sense in the end as well but it turned out okay. I liked that she actually saved herself as needed and didn't rely on a man to do it for her even as men sought to save her and her family. The romance was atypical in that even while speaking "sweet nothings" there was some tartness and teasing banter.

The narrator did a good job. She did well making people sound lazy or sleazy etc... I enjoyed her work.
Sex: innuendo
Language: some, mostly mild. Deity
Violence: duel, shooting in self defense, verbal abuse.

I love this Series!

This is the third book in the Regency Romps Series, a clean Regency Romance. You can listen to this story as a standalone. Isabella and Duncan's story is sweet and beautiful. Isabelle is lovely, and funny. Duncan is handsome, and protective. I loved to follow them in their journey. The supporting characters are great. Julia Eve did an outstanding job with the narration. I love her acting! Looking forward to listen to the next book in the Series, The Rebel Wife. I love this Series!
