About this listen

Iain Sinclair, Marquis of Alynwick, is certain there is a special hell for him. An unrepentant rake, he holds nothing sacred - except for beautiful Elizabeth York. For years, Alynwick has tried to forget the woman he loved so well, and treated so badly. A woman who could hold nothing in her heart for him but hatred.

All of society believes Elizabeth, the blind daughter of a duke, to be a proper young lady. But no one knows of her wanton affair with Alynwick. When Lizzy learns of her ancestor's ancient diary - filled with exotic tales - she longs to uncover the identity of the unnamed lover within and hesitantly agrees to allow Alynwick, who claims to have knowledge of the "veiled lady," to help her solve the mystery.

Eager to be Lizzy's eyes, Alynwick brings the seductive text to life, and each night it takes greater effort for her to remember his betrayal. With each whispered word, her resolve gives way, without her knowing that a centuries-old secret will lead them to a present-day danger.

Had to force myself to finish

Read from August 07 to 29, 2012

Audiobook read by Helen Stern. I had to FORCE myself to finish this book--and that's after devouring the first two books (and Book 2 ends on a great cliffhanger). Unfortunately, this book goes back in time and rehashes most of the events of Book 2--and introduces a new (boring) "mystery." Iain is an absolute jerk. When you wish the heroine would end up with the OTHER guy, it's never a good thing.

Worth the wait!

Where does Temptation & Twilight rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Very, very good. Loved this series. Wanted to wait for the audiobook and it was certainly worth it. He is clearly my favorite of the characters in the trilogy.

Too much Repetition

There was way too much repetition (from prior 2 in series)in this third book of the series. When I first began reading this third book I had to keep checking back to make sure I had the correct book in the series. There were many chapters that contained ery long word for word excerpts from the previous books (especially the second book). The new story within the third book was shortened due to so much content from the first books. I understand the author may have been writing the second and third book so that a reader could pick up any of the three and be able to read a complete book without too many questions....but entire chapters repeated word for word is too much.

Ending

This book went over pretty much everything that happened in the 2nd book. There was very little about their affair.
Then it just ended abruptly. No epilogue, nothing. It just ended.
Very disappointed.

It's Alynwick!!! Not Alyck....ugh!!!

Given that this is the third book in a series in which the main characters played pivotal roles in prior books, the mispronunciation of the main character's name is extremely distracting! While I usually enjoy books narrated by Ms. Stern, this effectively ruined what would have been a very good ending (?) to this series.

The story has many twists and turns and for the most part flows fairly quickly. This author never disappoints and Alynwick is one of my favorite characters-probably because of all of his flaws. As long as the name change/mispronunciation doesn't bug you, it's worth the credit.

Prepare to lose sleep.. I could NOT put it down..

What did you like best about this story?

Awesome love story. Man desperately in love with women, can't live without her...everything a lady loves to hear.. Had a great plot as well.. A lot more going on than just the couple too which is always a plus..the other thing I really thought was cool was the perspective views the author gave to each book and character. She makes sure you don't miss a thought or emotion. Excellently done!

Have you listened to any of Helen Stern’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I thought narrator to be nice..she added a lot to the story and pulls you in with her voice.

Any additional comments?

This book and series all together really surprised me. I don't often listen to many stories more than once but I just finished it and I can't wait to go back and hear it again..

Oh yeah!

If you like romance and sensuality, then you'll love this book. I've listened to all of the Brethren Guardian books, and this ends the trilogy by giving you all the answers, which is nice. But it focuses much less on the action and mystery and much more on the relationship and romance, which sooooo worked for me. The only reason it's not 5 stars for me is that the sex could have culminated sooner, but maybe the wait is also what made it sooooo delicious! I don't know. I'm torn. And I don't know how memorable it will be, how long it will stay in my head afterwards. Some other books I've listened to have resonated with me longer, and I've dreaded ending my time within the story. So this one is not quite 5 stars, but it's very close. I have given very few audiobooks 4 stars, and I've purchased over 1000 audiobooks. So I mean it when I give it 4 stars. And the narrator is great, as she always is. I think the two main characters were also my favorite of this series. Who doesn't love the suffering and messed up guy who gets right for the love of a woman. And Elizabeth's lack of sight bound with great strength makes her a wonderful heroine. So the story worked on all parts. Enjoy.

OMG

I was hooked but not right off the top. The Orpheus part didn't do any thing for me and I listened to the other books as well. But it got steamy by chapter 15.

Oh My Gawd... the pompous rake who had a summer affair with a beautiful girl before she lost her sight. Twelve years later they meet again and the tension is right there: the betrayal, the sorrow, the lust. The sex was steamy and sizzling. To see this man through the eyes of a blind girl, to listen, to touch, to taste. The authors romance scenes were great, the reader was awesome!

Credit worthy? sure. I listened to it as part of the romance package, it's a keeper.

Great conclusion to the trilogy, but shouldn't it have a fourth volume? I think it should.
