Publisher's summary
New York Times bestselling author Eloisa James returns to the Would-Be Wallflowers series with an enemies-to-lovers romance between a proper earl and an entirely improper lady—whom he can’t stop thinking about.
Giles Renwick, Earl of Lilford, has never made a fool of himself over a woman—until he meets Lady Yasmin Régnier. Yasmin is ineligible for his attentions in every way: not as a wife, certainly not as a mistress (she is a lady!), nor even as a friend, since they vehemently dislike each other. Her gowns are too low, and her skirts are dampened to cling to admittedly lovely thighs. She loves to gossip—and giggle.
She isn’t dignified, or polite, or even truly British, given that her father’s French ancestry clearly predominated. Not to mention the fact that her mother had been one of Napoleon’s mistresses, a fact she makes no effort to hide.
So what—in heaven’s name—possesses him to propose?
And what will he do if she says yes?

Lord Nathaniel Harte, the disagreeable duke of Beswick, spends his days smashing porcelain, antagonizing his servants, and snarling at anyone who gets too close. With a ruined face like his, it's hard to like much about the world - especially smart-mouthed harpies (with lips better suited to kissing than speaking) who brave his castle with indecent proposals. But Lady Astrid Everleigh will stop at nothing to see her younger sister safe from a notorious scoundrel, even if it means offering herself up on a silver platter to the forbidding Beast of Beswick himself.

Clara may be the woman Adam wants, but there's one problem: She's far more interested in publishing her women's journal than getting married - especially to a man said to be dead-set on vengeance. Though with her nose for a story, Clara wonders if his desire for justice is sincere - along with his incredibly unnerving intention to be her husband. If her weak-kneed response to his kiss is any indication, falling for Adam clearly comes with a cost. But who knew courting danger could be such exhilarating fun?

Another Outstanding Story!
I waited a few months for this book and to read Yasmine and the Earl of Lilford’s story and it was definitely worth the wait!Once again, the author did a great job in helping the reader understand each character—even the antagonist(s). It was also nice to see Cleo as well as the Duchess of Trent once again.

For the first half of this book, I was convinced that Eloisa James had selected the wrong hero! But she won me over.
Susan Duerden is still obnoxious but not as throbbing as she was for Jo Beverly’s books. Ms. James deserves better however.

Eloisa James is the most underrated writer
The depth of backstory and motivation of each character is art.
She puts you in the middle of the action, and each scene moves the story along and creates the most satisfying narrative tension.
Susan Duerden is an amazing voice actor.
My dissociation thanks both of them.

Ah, a real story with real themes and big love and imperfect hero’s and heroines and good friends!
I really wasn’t certain about getting the audio version of the second of the Woodby wallflowers book, but I loved the character of Lady Yasmine. So I gave it a try, and I am so glad I did!! The narration was SO much better on this one, the story was Lovely and well paced and kept me interested and opinionated and laughing and occasionally tearing up throughout. I would highly recommend it.

Wonderful as always
I love Eloise’s books, I haven’t read or listened to one that is less than superb. Susan Duerden is always one of the best narrators in the business. I will automatically listen to a book in this time period that she narrates, she is gifted to be able to do the male voices so well and she brings the characters to life as if they weee real people, I can picture what they would look like and with a great story that is what it’s all about. Thank you for your wonderful stories and thank you for reading them in such an enjoyable way.

Did not disappoint
I always look forward to the next book in the series. I love reading about the previous characters and even though the book can be a stand alone book, having snippets of ongoing info from previous characters is a bonus. Love Eloise James books. So engaging and fun.
