About this listen

Opposites attract and sparks fly when the vivacious Arabella falls for a baron who lives under the shadow of a scandalous family secret.

1815, London.

Arabella Latham is a free spirit who longs to feel the spark of true love, but few men can match her passion for Shakespeare or her zest for life. Though her prospects seem slim, Arabella knows she can always count on the handsome but stoic Lord Henry Northcott, dubbed “The Brooding Baron” by the ton, to be willing to engage in intelligent conversation and even share a congenial dance with her at almost every ball. His quiet demeanor is the opposite of her vivacious personality, and she finds herself drawn to him, despite their differences.

Lord Northcott has quietly admired Arabella for years, grateful that his friendship with her brother has allowed him to share in her company and even begin to secretly imagine a life together with her. But he knows he cannot pursue a romantic relationship with any woman—let alone someone as bright and beautiful as Arabella—because of the shadow that an old family scandal has cast over his life. He has vowed to preserve what is left of his family’s reputation by holding himself above reproach apart from society and focusing the majority of his efforts at Parliament.

But Arabella is determined to show Lord Northcott that life is meant to be enjoyed, and she sets out to see what is behind the walls the Brooding Baron has built around himself. Could the spark of true love be enough to drive away the shadows holding Henry back?

Great story & narrator

My second book by this Author and I appreciate her approach to a clean romance whilst still holding the tension between the couple.
Loved Mr Branbury and hope there's more of him to come.
Very interesting info on Bedlam and reforms.
Definitely an Author and Narrator worth following 👌

Interesting but

I found the heroine annoying, manipulative, meddling and often juvenile. The love scenes between her and Henry for the first half of the book became tedious. I get that Henry found Arabella a ‘light’ in his dark world, but the author focused on physical more, over and over again, until it became exasperating. I considered quitting the story, but stuck with it to learn about Henry’s sister. Never really did learn much, but maybe that is by design for some sequel. MJW is good, but a bit dramatical in this story.

Lovely story, great performance

I usually prefer much more spice, but Gentry did a great job with building tension and the story was fantastic. The supporting characters were as amazing and three dimensional as the FMC and MMC. Mary Jane Wells was stellar, as usual. Overall, great job!

Narration was incredible

I’m fairly sure it was a good story but Mary Jane Wells brought the characters to life. The brooding baron had “madness” in his family and was certain he should never marry. Yeah, right. Dealing with the asylums in the 19th century is always frightening. Thankfully we weren’t in it for too long.

That was fun!

I tend to prefer heroines to be a bit more flawed, but this was a fun read from beginning to end. Well paced, witty dialog, and excellent narration for it all.
