About this listen

Spinster Miss Eleanor Lockhart is suddenly homeless and employment is her only option. Ruined after succumbing to a scoundrel's excessive charm nearly a decade ago, she's lucky to obtain a position as a paid companion and committed to behaving with the utmost propriety. She definitely shouldn't be in the arms of a man capable of utterly destroying what little remains of her reputation.

Titus St. John, Duke of Kendal, is known as the Forbidden Duke, a mysterious, intimidating figure who enters society just once each year at his stepmother's ball. A decade ago, he was a devil-may-care rake until his idle roguery brought about the ruin of Eleanor Lockhart - and his resulting self-imposed isolation. Now she's back, and she needs his help. But by saving her, he may just ruin her life all over again.

Wonderful Book!

I love a good love story with a happy ending and this is one of them.

All the characters are delightful and the narration is good. This will definitely go on my to be read again pile!

The only constructive criticism was the Epilogue which was unnecessary. I always believe in the adage "less is more".

Not what I expected...

I felt this book dragged out some parts and made it intolletably boring. But overall the book felt rushed... it lacked detail so connecting to the characters was difficult.

Overall it was just dull!

Tedious

Disgraced young woman's father loses his money and work is the only option. A countess requires a companion and feels compassion for the young woman and hires her. Totally unlikely scenario in Regency England.
