Publisher's summary

New York Times bestselling author Sophie Jordan kicks off her amazing new high concept series, The Scandalous Ladies of London, which chronicles the lives of a group of affluent ladies reigning over glittering, Regency-era London, vying for position in the hierarchy of the ton. They are the young wives, widows, and daughters of London’s wealthiest families. The drama is big, the money runs deep, and the shade is real. Life is different in the ton.

“My husband is a good man… just ask all the women he has bedded.”

Wealthy society maven Lady Gertrude knows how the world works. If her husband is less than faithful, it’s an acceptable price to pay for her coveted position at the apex of London’s most fashionable set. No exclusive soirée or lavish ball is complete without her and her group of decadent, well-connected friends. And this Season promises more excitement than usual: Tru is launching her daughter into Society, helping her navigate the cutthroat Marriage Mart, complete with fortune hunters, jealous debutantes, and malicious gossips.

As skilled as Tru is at playing the high-stakes games of the ton, she never expects to meet her match—until Jasper Thorne begins to court her daughter. Jasper needs a titled bride, but when he meets Tru, all his carefully laid plans go up in smoke. The attraction between Tru and Jasper is undeniable…and unacceptable. To indulge in an affair with her daughter’s suitor would be ruinous. If it becomes public, she’ll never survive the scandal. Especially as it becomes clear that he wants more than one night…he wants the impossible. He wants forever.

A sizzling story of scandalous ladies, irresistible temptation, and the dangers—and joys—of being true to yourself.

Stream of consciousness

Story was very rambling, stream of consciousness. Could use more editing. FPerformance was very good though.

distracting vocal performance

The main character is 37, but the voice the reader gave her sounds about 80. It's really distracting and not appealing for a romance. The other characters don't sound much better. Will actively avoid listening to another story read by this reader.

Good story but

It would have been so much better if the FMC wasn’t an idiot in the third act.

Slow cooker

Interesting story but it took 6 hours and 8 minutes of story building to get to a point where Jasper and True both expressed overtly any feelings towards each other. There was still a slow process to finally reach the page turning conclusion. I score a one on heat. But the story does give a good historical perspective of the times and decent character development of all the different people involved with True and Jasper. If those types of stories are interesting to you it’s worth a credit.

Review

I truly enjoyed the story. Different than others. Unfortunately I didn’t like the narrator. It was hard to differentiate the characters. Sometimes she sounded like an old lady and didn’t give the characters their one personalities. I look forward to the next book but not sure I can read it with this reader.
