About this listen
An infamous sea captain of the British Royal Navy, Devlin O'Neill is consumed with the need to destroy the man who brutally murdered his father. Having nearly ruined the Earl of Eastleigh financially, he is waiting to strike the final blow. And his opportunity comes in the form of a spirited young American woman, the earl's niece, who is about to set his cold, calculating world on fire…Born and raised on a tobacco plantation, orphan Virginia Hughes is determined to rebuild her beloved Sweet Briar. Daringly, she sails to England alone, hoping to convince her uncle to lend her the funds. Instead, she finds herself ruthlessly kidnapped by the notorious Devlin O'Neill, and will soon find her best-laid plans thwarted by a passion that could seal their fates forever…

Story
All Grace Gauthier ever wanted was the security of a good marriage, family, and home. Instead, despised by her aristocratic father's family because of her mother's foreign birth, she's taken a safe position as a governess. Now, unprotected and alone in London, accused of the shocking murder of her employer, she has no one to turn to except the mysterious - and possibly dangerous - Lord Ruthveyn.

More pagan than lady, Meriel spends her days running barefoot through her English estate, cultivating her flowers and her mystical connection to nature. She is mute and, according to most people, mad. But handsome Dominic Renbourne, who has been sent by his twin to court her, senses in Meriel a kindred spirit. He manages to inspire her trust, and against his better judgement, her passion.

Story
Kidnapped and confined in a harem - that's not the scenario Charlotte Quade envisioned when she prayed for just one grand adventure before sailing home to Washington Territory from Europe. While exploring the ancient, exotic island kingdom of Riz, Charlotte foolishly lost her way. In a dizzying moment, she was snatched, bound up in a sack, and unceremoniously dumped - completely naked! - in the ship's cabin of the very same man who had caught her fancy as a young girl in Seattle: Captain Patrick Trevarran.

Great Listen! Always enjoy Brenda Joyce
The narration was good, the story line well developed and written. Just a wonderful story, the characters are complicated, wish the Shawn character would have developed more. Long, good listen. It won't disappoint and is well worth a credit.

Can we say Stockholm syndrome?
When I read the comments before listening to the audio I was like I’m sure they are exaggerating…. BUT I see now they were not.
The protagonist is forever the victim. Has she no dignity, no self respect. I feel this novel is for the type of woman who falls in love with a bad guy and thinks she will change him. That her love is big enough to help them overcome their trama. But in reality in real life they NEVER change. But this novel is for them and their dreams because “he” I guess in the end does change.
And I don’t understand WHY he has to give his enemy the deed to that property back just because he no longer wants to pursue revenge? Makes no sense. If he doesn’t want the property just sell it. What this act all of a sudden makes him a changed and reformed man?
There are TO MANY things I don’t like about this book. I don’t think I can name ALL the things because there are too many but I will name a few.
1. She offers herself to him and he goes and sleeps with the maid. And she accepts his reasoning for it. Makes me want to vomit 🤢
2. In the middle of losing her virginity to him in the last moment SHE CHANGES HER MINED! He takes it anyways! And she is like oh it felt good I guess it’s ok 🤢
3. Brother (Sean) convinces her (Virginia) that he (Devlin ) is a good guy to stick by him because DEEP down inside he does care for her. Honestly all the character Devlin Needs was to hit her. That was the only thing he was missing! oh and to be an alcoholic or a drug addicted.
….. this book was not for me. Too many cringe moments for me. I must say though I did like the narrator Voices this time.

So Awful I Don't Know Where To Begin
The heroine is an absolute disgustingly weak moron. She makes me physically ill. I have nothing good to say. Nothing. So bad. Do not read this tripe. It is repetitive and harrowing.

Painful narration
Would you try another book from Brenda Joyce and/or Christina Thurmond?
I enjoy books by this author.
If only these horribly forced British accents could be monitored.
It's hard to listen to an American 'over-doing' the British characters.
Completely spoiled the book for me......I gave up after an hour, hence the story is rated low.
What do you think your next listen will be?
Rogue Herries by Hugh Walpole
What didn’t you like about Christina Thurmond’s performance?

Don’t bother.
If you wanna read about the last text this is your book. If you don’t need that kind of crap don’t waste your credit.
