About this listen
Leorah Langdon has no patience for Regency society's shallow hypocrisy and unnecessary rules, especially for women. She's determined to defy convention by marrying for grand passion instead of settling for a loveless union like her parents - or wedding a stuffy, pompous gentleman like Edward, the Viscount Withinghall. But when a chance meeting in the countryside leads to Leorah and Withinghall being discovered in his overturned carriage - alone and after dark - the ensuing gossip may force them together.
Withinghall has his reasons for clinging to propriety; his father perished in a duel with his mistress's husband, and Edward must avoid scandal himself if he wants to become prime minister. He certainly has no time for a reckless hoyden like Miss Langdon. But soon the two discover that Withinghall's coach "accident" was no such thing: the vehicle was sabotaged.
Can the culprit be brought to justice? Strong-willed Leorah and duty-driven Withinghall will have to work together if they have any hope of saving her reputation, his political career - and his life.
©2017 Melanie Dickerson (P)2016 Brilliance AudioThe performance of the narrative was fine. However, the characterisation was not - really not. The choice of tone and cadence made little sense to me, making all the characters mostly unlikeable. Their utterances were rendered querulous, and conversations lacked any quality of interpersonally nuanced communication.
Let’s hope that books 1 and 3 find their way into the Audible plus catalogue!
Potentially interesting story with awful narration (and nothing to do with ‘Regency Spies’)
