About this listen

England, 1817. Miss Adeline Hays is out of options. Determined to escape marriage to a repugnant earl, Adeline plans to deliberately allow herself to be caught in a compromising position at a house party with the much kinder man she’d hoped to marry. Instead, Adeline accidentally enters the wrong chamber and tumbles into the bed of the mad duke.

Edmond Rochester, the duke of Wolverton, is seeking a wife to care for his two daughters. He’s looking for a young lady of sensibilities and accomplishment, someone who, most importantly, he’s not attracted to - the complete opposite of the bewitching beauty who traps him into marriage. But despite the lust he feels for his new duchess, Edmond is resolved to never allow them intimacy, refusing to ever again suffer the tormenting loss of a loved one.

If you wonder what happens after marriage, this book is for you. It moves along at a great pace. Thank goodness the narrator was really good. Very enjoyable and will be reading the next two.

the narrator is wonderful. Storyline is very good as well. I specifically like the interaction between The Duchess and the Duke and the leading up to their lovemaking.

this is a great love story

Edmond is a man caught up in grief and afraid to love again. Adeline compromises him and he does the honourable thing and begins feeling things he swore not to feel after his 1st wife died. I love the story Stacy tells of how he lets his defences down.

All goes relatively well until huge misunderstanding sees Edmond running from his Duchess to London in fear.

Will love conquer all? Or will these 2 lovers be divided forever?

The narrator was one of the better ones I've heard read Stacys books.

I love this series by Stacy Reid and highly recommend it

Lovely story and intro to the series

slight twist on the usual regency HEA story.. although I have to say I am sick of having a petulant man child that needs nurturing as the love interest.
still enjoyable and worth the time

Well written and well read.

It wasn’t - it predates AI - but the writing is clunky, the characters are inconsistent and a blend of romance cliches and there is little historical detail.
My brain feels stupider after listening to this. Oh my gosh.

I actually googled this to see if it was AI generated
