Publisher's Summary

Plunging from a well-bred lady to society’s most scandalous outcast, one woman faces danger and romance with a determination to live on her own terms London’s high society assumes that Alexandria Cassell, a lady of impeccable lineage, is eager to wed the first suitable aristocrat who proposes. But Alexandria despises the shallow mindlessness of London society. Craving adventure, she steals down to the docks and stows away aboard a merchant ship bound for Canada. Drake Barrett loves the open seas. As captain of his own vessel, he can escape his life as a duke, where he would be doomed to the empty chatter of glittering ballrooms. But when he finds a delicate beauty aboard ship, he forgets everything but a man’s desires.From a fleeting island paradise to a country caught in the sudden crossfire of war, Drake and Alexandria give in to a passion that just might reveal their true passions - if a shocking act of treachery doesn’t separate them forever. My Heart's Desire is the first book of the Barrett Family series, which concludes with Samantha.

My favourite by Andrea Kane to date

I really enjoyed this audio book.The narration is excellent ; the intonations and characterisations spot on. She really brought the author's words to
life.

I wholeheartedly agree with other reviews that the characters, storyline and themes were great. The book was well written and I was totally invested right through to the end.

Drake was the first male character of all the Regency audiobooks I've listened to so far (and I've binged on many!) whom I was really drawn to. If I was living during this era he probably would've been my ideal man!
