Publisher's summary

A thrilling new historical romance from the New York Times bestselling author of The Secret Wedding

When Arabella Barstowe is kidnapped, she believes her life and virtue are forfeit—until she's rescued by the notorious rogue Captain Rose. Bella never expects to see him again. But years later she learns the wicked truth behind her abduction, and she seeks out the only man who can help her take revenge.

What she doesn't know is that Captain Rose is just a disguise for the formidable Duke of Ithorne, who is intrigued to hear from the mysterious woman from his past. Their lives are soon entangled by danger and a growing forbidden passion.

Contains mature themes.

Not a.fan of the narration

The narration tone was way too repetitive and ended on the same notes which made it hard to listen to.

Needs a new performer

Now, I realize it's not going to be re-recorded but if they were going to, change the performer please. Her cadence and inflection never change. Every sentence is read the same; the same emphasis from beginning to end of every phrase. That makes it very difficult to listen to.
The story is your standard "I'm the wrong station" Regency romance. not bad. not great. but it is enjoyable.
