About this listen

Lady Augusta Penworthy is in dire straights.

Her father has spent every last coin, and she and her sisters cannot even afford coal. One chance encounter and a torn gown changes everything. While one might think a sudden marriage to a wealthy lord a relief if that marriage is to the Duke of Blacktower, one would be vastly mistaken. For no young lady wishes to be that infamous rake's bride.

The Duke of Blacktower has a secret. He has vowed never to marry and has ensured his fearsome reputation would dissuade any hopeful lady or their scheming mama. Now, his hand has been forced, and his fury is unleashed. But Lady Augusta is not the manipulative young lady he believed, and suddenly he finds himself tempted by his own bride.

From USA Today bestselling author Eva Devon, writing as Máire Claremont, comes a brand-new series that will sweep you away to the drama and angst of Regency England. Glittering ballrooms, wild moors, and brooding lords await...

Lovely story but jarring

Lovely story, enjoyed, but the two narrators swapping between chapters was jarring, it stops you being able to lose yourself in the story as at each switch you have to get your brain back into it again as you make the switch. An experiment that didn’t work. Disappointing.

Average, to say the least

I feel like comparing the story to an insipid dish: you can eat it, but you taste nothing. The plot is dull, the characters flat. Overall a mediocre book.
