For Hudson, the newly titled Viscount Stildon, moving to England from India where he was born and raised was already an arduous enough endeavor. When he learns the fate of the racing empire he inherited along with his title depends upon him getting in the good graces of another stable owner, he's even more at a loss.

The stable at the neighboring estate has been Miss Bianca Snowley's refuge for years, and when a strange man appears to be stealing the horses, she jumps to their protection without a second thought. Upon learning Hudson is actually the new owner, she can't help but be intrigued by the area's newest eligible bachelor.

Any thought of romance is quickly set aside, however, when Hudson proposes they work together to secure suitable spouses for each other. As their friendship grows, Hudson and Bianca begin to reconsider what they truly want in life. But will societal expectations and the weight of their responsibilities keep them from pursuing their true desires?

Historical romance or not? As I was listening to the dialogue I kept forgetting that the story was set in the past. However, the storylines were interesting and successfully merged together providing continuity without ridiculous/contrived actions. Of the two main characters, Hudson and Bianca, Bianca was given more depth while Hudson’s portrayal was superficial, therefore I found Bianca’s attraction to him somewhat contrived. The stepmother could have been a stereotype but her vicious set downs elevated her villainy thus providing insight into Bianca’s motivations and behavior. By expanding the storyline involving horse racing more tension could have been achieved giving a little more life to the plot. Overall, I recommend this book due to the atypical romance progression, witty (although not authentic to the time period) dialogue, and the deliciously vile stepmother.

Kristi Ann Hunter does it again. Her characters are rich and the plot engaging. I love that she continues in the same universe as her other series, it truly brings a sense of living breathing characters. Ann Marie Gideon also does an exceptional job with her performance she catches the nuances of the text and brings them forth for the listener. I eagerly await the next book in the series.

Likes:
I enjoyed this book.
I also thought the reader was clear. It was clean and towards the end dipped a bit into faith. It isn’t a turnoff as some people may assume. It is written in a way to convey : be a good person and trust your gut.

Challenges:
The story, in some places, became a bit sporadic and confusing.
perhaps it was me, but the editing was off. Looooooooong pauses became frustrating.

Clean & Enjoyable
