About this listen
At the end of his Grand Tour, somewhere between Athens and Constantinople, Christian Selwyn, the young Earl of Hazelmere, vanished—seemingly without trace.
Time passes. In London, his uncle and cousin move into his home, while his unofficial fiancée, Sophia, is left desolate and in limbo.
Finally, his friends–loyal and close as brothers–set out to search in person, determined to find him and bring him home.
Christian’s startling re-appearance at a grand ball hosted by his uncle takes society by storm, fueling endless speculation. Where has he been during these three missing years? What happened to him? And more importantly, how did it happen?
Only one thing is clear. The earl who left England five years ago has returned a changed man. A man with secrets....

Stella Riley’s Georgian era character collection is enriched with two wonderful new characters, Sophia and Kit, who take their deserved place among the other noble characters we met in the Rockliffe and Brandon Brothers series. It is always a pleasure to meet some of the well-known characters of these novels at the balls and assemblies of the London season or even see them involved in action on behalf of Kit.
The book is a balanced blend of emotional depths moments, witty dialogues, funny to hilarious scenes, tender love, mystery and tension. From the very beginning, we know that something terrible happened to Kit. After his return, he suffers because of it, has nightmares, cannot hire a valet and doesn’t want to talk about it. You can’t stop guessing what horrific experiences he suffered during his captivity. The suspense and tension are increasing over the chapters, until we are finally revealed the cause behind Kit’s nightmares.
The revenge in more cunning than bloody, in line with Kit’s character. And what a wonderful gang of friends to support him in implementing his revenge plan.
Alex Wyndham is a master of portraying characters through his voice and makes the narration highly enjoyable.
I warmly recommend the audiobook to fans of historical romance and mysteries. Let yourself transported back into the last third of the 18th century and immerse yourself in the life of Georgian aristocracy with nights at White’s and Sinclair’s, balls and an improvised pleasure garden in Berkeley square.
Captivating love and revenge story

…Unless you have read at least one of Ms Riley’s previous historical romance series! Start with the Rockliffe.series. You HAVE TO!
Not that you won’t love and enjoy this on it’s own (I’m sure that it’s the beginning of yet another fabulous series), but it’s richer and even more enjoyable because this is peppered with cameos, which, because they’re interwoven so seamlessly, embraces us within the Stella Riley universe.
Christian has been absent from home for 5 years. 3 of those years were unscheduled. When he unexpectedly returns, fortuitously gate crashing a ball being held in his own home, to announce the betrothal of his fiancée to his cousin, this unravels a chain of events, which are psychological, emotional, and vengeful as a result!
Despite being a potentially grim story, Ms Riley has covered this scenario with wonderful insight
