Publisher's summary

Jason, Earl of Coventry, needs to discreetly locate his unwanted and abandoned bride among London society to request an annulment. Too bad he can't remember what she looks like because he was blind drunk at his arranged wedding and hasn't see her since.

Newly arrived from the country for the Season, Lady Olivia is appalled to discover that her own husband Lord Coventry doesn't even recognize her. She's not about to tell the arrogant arse she his wife. Instead, she flirts with him by night and has her modiste send her mounting bills to him by day.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, except Lady Olivia finds her husband nearly irresistible.

Very cute story but not for young adults

I wish they would leave a little more to imagination for those who don’t replace replace real romance with books and just want a good entertaining story. Most of the book is PG 13, then enough naughty scenes where I will have to delete from my phone since I my teens and young adult daughters like to listen. Enjoyed the story line.

Almost There

The story line was quite common as these type of books go. That leaves the Narrator delivering the story. This one did not match the characters she tried to portray. I cant think of any memorable or great part, Sorry.

Cute

Fun story. It seemed a bit forced trying to find intrigue but it was entertaining. I only had a bit of difficulty listening to the narrative

story good but narrator not great

The story is fun. The narrator should have skipped trying different voices. Some voices were really bad. Unfortunately, the narration spoils the experience

Good story, but you need to tune out the narrator.

This was a super funny farce and the storyline made the book one you kept listening to but I have to say the narrator was awful. I still enjoyed the book but I had to tune out the narrator. Still a good book if you can get past the awful narrator

Good Story, Terrible Narrator

For the most part, the story is decent. However, the narrator does a terrible job of reading.

Horrible narration

I could not continue to listen to the narration of this story! Her intonations and “voices” were horribly distracting to me! I’m sorry because I think the story might be a good one!

This had a great story. Narration was good. The story was funny and I loved her spirit. It was good to see how the characters feelings naturally progressed

I enjoyed the story. Unfortunately

The story was enjoyable and worth the time. I did not enjoy the narration. The male characters were narrated by women.
If there had been an actual male voice or the women did a better with their voices make it hoarser and deeper. This did affect my listening it was annoying
