Publisher's summary

Her dream is to open a music hall. Only one thing stands in her way—the man she loves. The final Wicked Wallflowers novel from USA Today bestselling author Christi Caldwell.

Leaving behind her life as a courtesan and madam, Clara Winters is moving far from the sinful life to which she was accustomed in the gaming hell the Devil’s Den. Her more reputable and fulfilling endeavor is a music hall for the masses. One night, when she sees a man injured on the streets of East London, she rushes to his aid and brings him home. It’s then that she discovers he’s Henry March, Earl of Waterson, and a member of Parliament. No good can come from playing nursemaid to a nobleman.

When Henry rouses to meet his savior in blonde curls, he is dazzled. This smart and loving spitfire challenges his every notion of the lower classes—and every moment together is a thrill. But after Henry returns to his well-ordered existence, he strikes a political compromise that has unintended consequences. Will his vision for London mean dashing the dreams of his lovely guardian angel?

Wonderful!

Christi Caldwell is one of my favorite writers. She brings dry humor, witty discourse smoldering sensuality and the perfect delivery from Tim Campbell. The Spitfire was the heroine who was the catalyst for the hero’s transition . Read about it—no spoilers here.

Suspenseful historical romance

Good story, good narrator
Tim Campbell has a pleasant baritone, sometimes his female voices sound a bit silly but the expression is good and he is a very good reader. It didn’t sound “read aloud” it sounded like storytelling.

I appreciated the older h/h with mature thinking. Both characters are on the road to working through past trauma and moving forward. Although they have either ignorance or well earned prejudice about each other’s societal class their situation throws them together and they learn to respect each other.
The secondary characters are pretty flat but the story is still engrossing.

the narrator

The narrator is exquisite. He leaves you breathless waiting for the next word to see where the story will go next. Of one to 10 he is a 10 plus.
