About this listen
In the realm of Regency society, where desire is a dangerous game, One Wanton Wager follows Lady Daphne Summerville and the audacious Earl of Brunsford, Alex Beauchamp, as their clash of wills and magnetic attraction ignite a tempestuous love affair. Amidst stolen kisses and a perilous wager, they must navigate the treacherous waters of their hearts, discovering if a rogue's pursuit can lead to an everlasting love that defies all odds.
In a world where desire ignites with a single touch, the Regency saga of the A Castle Romance series continues with a tale of tempestuous hearts and daring wagers. Delve into the captivating story of One Wanton Wager as passion collides with pride, and love's flames are fanned by the winds of fate.
Daphne the widowed Viscountess Gilford, finds herself ensnared in a web of familial obligations and societal expectations. No longer content to live off the charity of her late husband's family, she resolves to chart her own path. Seeking a husband becomes her mission, though an alluring obstacle stands in her way—a rogue whose charms are as dangerous as they are undeniable.
Alex Beauchamp, the audacious Earl of Brunsford, a man with a reputation for charming his way into the hearts of women. From the instant his eyes meet Daphne's, he is captivated by the fire within her. However, his intentions are far from noble; he envisions her as a willing companion to his illicit desires. But Daphne is no damsel to be swayed by a rogue's empty promises, and she rebuffs his advances with an unyielding spirit.
Undeterred, Alex devises a daring proposition—an irresistible wager that could forever alter the course of their lives. He offers to secure Daphne's future if she grants him the privilege of pursuing her affections, albeit in secret. The stakes are set, the challenge accepted, and the rules clear: each stolen kiss shared between them fuels the spark of a hidden passion.
As their game of hearts unfolds, Daphne and Alex dance upon the precipice of danger and desire. Yet, behind the veil of their entangled hearts, a storm of emotions brews, threatening to shatter the delicate balance they've crafted. With each stolen moment, they risk unraveling the very fabric of their souls.
In One Wanton Wager love's recklessness collides with reason, and the tempest of their emotions threatens to consume them whole. Can a wager born of mischief and longing transform into a love that defies all odds? Join Daphne and Alex as they navigate the treacherous waters of their hearts, and discover if a rogue's pursuit can lead to a love everlasting.
In the game of hearts, desire becomes a dangerous wager, and love's flames are fanned by fate's daring hand. Get ready to be swept away as One Wanton Wager beckons you into a Regency world where passion collides with pride.

It's Good
For such a short novel, this story packs a LOT of content and character development. It's well-written and interesting. It's a bit angsty, but not dramatic, and overall it's quite an engaging story. The narration was well-done.

Wagering on Love
Daphne Summerville is a widow with a young son. Unfortunately, her husband left her only a small inheritance. She has decided it is time for her to marry so that she can ensure her son’s education and their future. When Rebecca and Camden return to Almerry Castle, Alex Beauchamp, Earl of Brunsford, and Camden’s best friend comes to help with the restoration. While there is an instant attraction between Alex and Daphne, she is looking for marriage. He is looking for a mistress. Alex offers her a wager that, win or lose, guarantees funds for Henry’s education. Will she accept, take the risk that she can resist him? This is a short steamy romance with likable characters, and Marynn Franklin’s narration is quite enjoyable. I especially enjoyed the interaction between Alex and Henry. Is it possible that Almerry’s magic will bring them all a happy ending?

Daphne and Alex
This is a quick and enjoyable story. Daphne lives with her in-laws with her three year old son. She is widowed, and would like to get out from the in-laws residence. Alex is a sworn bachelor. They meet while Alex is at the residence visiting family. Alex is attracted to Daphne, and he is in the market for a new mistress. The two make a wager, both feel they can win, and neither want to risk losing. I won’t tell the rest of the story, but it has a HEA. It is well written. The characters are well developed and relatable. The narration was excellent. I received a free copy of this audiobook, and am voluntarily leaving my review.

Sweet and Engaging!
This is the second novella in A Castle Romance Series, a Regency Romance. I loved Daphne and Alex's story. Daphne's son is adorable. The story is sweet and engaging. Marynn Franklin did a great job bringing these characters, and this story to life. I enjoyed it. Looking forward to listening to Forever in Your Arms, the next book in the series.

Who will win
Daphne is a widow with a son. Alex is a rake. Alex wants Daphne as a mistress but Daphne doesn't want that type of life. And so a wager is struck. A pleasant story and book two of a series. Filled with old friends and some new ones as well. Characters with depth and no great drama or mystery. Well written with some light banter. Beautifully narrated with ability to change characters.

One Wanton Wager!
This is a sweet and fun historical read about Lady Daphne and Alex, the Earl of Brunsford. Their story is a good addition to the Castle series and stands alone. It is full of history, passion and kisses. I enjoyed every bit of this short and quick read. I enjoyed their story with its ups and downs. The narration was nicely done and really brought the story to life.

The Risky Wager . . .
As a widow, Lady Daphne Summerville, the widowed Viscountess Gilford, decides to make her own way rather than live off the charity from her deceased husband’s family, so she knows she must seek a husband. She meets Alex Beauchamp, Earl of Brunsford, who has arrived to help the family with some renovations they want to make to the castle. He is a major distraction to Daphne but he is not looking for marriage after a bad experience. He is attracted to Daphne as she is to him and hopes she will give in to his plan to have her become his mistress. Unfortunately for him, Daphne wants more than that. So Alex offers a wager to tempt her. He will provide money for her son’s education if she will allow him to pursue her affections secretly. She accepts the challenge. But at what point will the game they are playing become real as the feelings they are pretending deepen? And will they give in to that reality as they fall in love? Or will pride make them back off and deny what may be waiting for them? The narrator for the audiobook version, Marynn Franklin, brings the “reading” experience alive for the listener. She does a good job with the voices to personalize the story and make it easy for the listener to get an accurate impression of what each character is like. It helps to set the mood, familiarize the reader with the characters, and offers a pleasant way to “read” and enjoy the book.
