About this listen

When a rake beyond redemption...

A walking scandal surviving on little more than wits, whisky, and wicked skills in the bedchamber, Benedict Chatham, the new Marquess of Rutherford, is at the end of his rope. Deeply in debt and down to his last farthing, he must marry nothing short of an absolute fortune, or risk utter ruin.

Must marry for money...

Enter Miss Charlotte Lancaster, unfashionably tall heiress to just such a fortune and a clumsy, redheaded disaster in her five London seasons. While she dreams of leaving England for a life of trade in America, her father schemes to trade her dowry for a title - and Marchioness of Rutherford will do nicely. Charlotte wants her independence, not a husband, and certainly not a disreputable devil who renders her weak and wobbly with a single scorching glance. But she's a practical sort, and a year with the devil might buy her freedom....provided she can resist his seductive charms. That shouldn't prove a problem, for he could not possibly want someone like her, and the feeling is mutual. Really. It is.

Love grows in the most unexpected places...

When her father demands a startling price for his daughter's hand - one year of fidelity and sobriety - Chatham must change his libertine ways....at least temporarily. And when he does, Charlotte begins to see him in a new light - not as the scandalous charmer she married, but as the husband she just might adore.

Contains mature themes.

Doesn’t disappoint!

The story was very sweet but heart wrenching at times . I liked that it was focused on developing the relationship between Chatham and Charlotte rather than distracting with multiple side characters. It does set the stage for the next book but the tormented hero was still the focus . He is the one we love to hate but turns out to be the most noble scoundrel.

Enjoyable

Enjoyed the story and the characters - would have liked a little more humour and a slightly more sensible heroine

Chatham stood out, not sure I spelled his name correctly, but he stood out his character development

Would’ve liked the story to be a little bit longer, extending to the birth of their child

Love Rescued From Ruin series!!

Chatham and Charlotte.

Chatham to Charlotte: I am looking at you. Always. Even when I close my eyes you are burned into me. I see nothing else.

Hurt. Intense. Sexy. I love Elisa's writing and Mary Sarah's performances.

Get this one. Read or listen to them all.

Tale of Two Lost Souls

Loved the progression of enemies to friends to lovers. They both fall, thinking the other doesn't want a future together.

likable but flawed characters

Redemption of a Wastrel

How often does anyone get a second chance? Especially when that chance is backed every step of the way by a promissory payment of 100,000 pounds and a young lady for wife who believes in you? Is it too good to be true or is it a fully backed gamble?
I say it's a much needed chance at a life worth living! Excellently written and narrated!

I just love a reformed rake!

I have read all of the books in the series. This is by far my favorite. I like the narrator- but find I need the speed at 1.3 to best enjoy.

Super sexy

Unrivaled passion, sweetly written. The redemption of a scoundrel always squeezes the heart. On to the next book!
