Summary

A world-weary rake

After years of unbridled debauchery, Tristan Sinclair, Viscount St. Ashton has hit proverbial rock bottom. Seeking to escape his melancholy, he takes refuge at one of Victorian society's most notorious house parties. As the Christmas season approaches, he prepares to settle in for a month of heavy drinking...until an unexpected encounter changes his plans - and threatens his heart.

A prim vicar's daughter

Valentine March is not the drab little spinster she appears to be. When her new job as a lady's companion lands her smack in the middle of Yorkshire with England's most infamous rake, she resolves to keep her head down and her eyes fixed firmly on her future - a future which most definitely does not include a sinfully handsome viscount.

A match made in scandal

A friendship is impossible. An affair out of the question. But when one reckless act binds them together, will two star-crossed souls discover there's more to each other than meets the eye? Or will revelations from the past end their fragile romance before it begins?

Engaging story… despite the narrator

I’ll be honest, the narration was extremely off putting – incorrect pronunciation, annoying intonation and odd accent (is this reader actually British or just an actor putting on a British accent?!). I enjoyed the story, once I tuned out the narration.

enjoyed the story but I am afraid the narrator was extremely irritating with the false tones .

Not my favourite narrator.

I enjoyed the simple but engaging story, but I must say the narrator finished a lot of the narration like there was no full stop, it just seemed to hang there. Other than that it was good entertainment.

Charming in many ways ...

It is a romance well put together but not as gripping as one would hope for BUT has a good plot

Distracting Narrator

It is hard to judge this book without mentioning the narrator who adopts a very strange accent and mis-pronounces words, so that they drop with a terrible clang. Apart from that it was fairly enjoyable.

Great story

A lovely, light story with understated drama and a sprinkling of humour read clearly with expression

I’m Probably Not A Fan…

Honestly couldn’t finish this, I got a feeling of Regency Mills & Boon. I was recommended to this author by a Georgette Heyer fan and drawn to this title because this was an Audible Plus free book download. I’m grateful for that, as I would have been disappointed if I had paid for this.
