Publisher's summary

There was one man Lady Emma vowed she would never marry: the rakish Duke of Warwick—brother to her very best friend.

But one chance encounter on a balcony has Lady Emma questioning all she ever believed about the duke. When her friend—and the duke’s sister—is abducted, they must work together to find her and determine who has been threatening the Remington family.

Since his father’s murder, Giles, the new Duke of Warwick, has been trying to right his father’s wrongs and discover who is threatening them. He is also searching for the perfect wife to improve his family’s reputation—a wife who could never be the outspoken Lady Emma, who prefers to spend her time digging in the gardens.

As the secrets and mysteries surrounding the family deepen, Giles and Emma find their lives intertwine more closely than ever before. Until one fateful act leaves them one choice—love or ruination.

Cliffhanger warning!

This was narrated by two barely ok narrator’s. It was a short story turned into a novel by adding a lot of words and a idea of a mystery which does not even begin to get solved!

I hate cliffhangers!

The romance was good, and if they had solved the mystery I’d be raving about this book. But it was left hanging, and I hate that device to get me to buy another book.

It had no heat factor.

Creditworthy? Maybe if in the end you can get the set so you get the whole story. The romance was good, but since the book spent more time on the mystery it feels unfinished and like an afterthought.

Good Start

A good storyline with interesting characters highlights the start of this new series. I don’t usually share my negative feelings but here goes.
1. I hate cliffhangers, especially when they’re a surprise. I deducted a star.
2. Gratuitous sex scenes. Every fondle, move, etc. are not relevant to the story. I want to read about the emotions that the actions provoke. In fairness, I believe the author did that as well. However I probably won’t read more of her books. So double the irritation of point #1.
Although both the Audible narrators were good, it was odd that they just alternated chapters. So the voices changed frequently from one chapter to the next.
I think this would be an enjoyable book for someone who enjoys detailed descriptions of sex scenes.

Wonderful story

The narration is perfect, and the story was great. A must listen to, and I almost want to buy the book as well.

Ok storyline

Fun little romp. Although something of a cliffhanger the ending was too abrupt- you are left feeling unsatisfied. Narrators are very good. I recommend this book to listeners who appreciate good narration that is responsible for at least 1/2 of the successful storylines and who want a predictable romance. Not much on the historical front except for comments about women’s roles in marriage so a bit disappointing there.
