About this listen

The proud and arrogant duke of Everingham is determined to secure a marriage of convenience with heiress Lady Georgiana Rutherford. He's the biggest prize on the London marriage mart, pursued by young unmarried ladies and their matchmaking mamas, as well as married women with a wandering eye. He can have any woman he wants. Or so he thinks....

Lady Georgiana Rutherford - irreverent and unconventional - has no plans to marry. Having grown up poor, Lady George has no intention of giving up her fortune to become dependent on the dubious and unreliable goodwill of a man. Especially a man as insufferable as the duke of Everingham, whose kisses stirs unwelcome and unsettling emotions....

The more she defies him, the more the duke wants her, until an argument at a ball spirals into a passionate embrace. Caught in a compromising position, the duke announces their betrothal. George is furious, and when gossip claims she deliberately entrapped the duke - when she was the one who was trapped - she marches down the aisle in a scarlet wedding dress. But the unlikely bride and groom may have found love in the most improbable of places - a marriage of convenience.

Contains mature themes.

I too enjoyed the story and found it amusing, however, I am somewhat ambivalent about the narration. Don’t get me wrong, she did a great job at character differentiation but I often felt Georg’ sounded annoying and older than her years. At times I also found the Duke annoying, particularly during the intimate scenes (cringe). On the other hand, Sinc was perfection, I think her narration would best suit the classics by Jane Austen, Brontë, etc. but that’s just IMHO. I do recommend this audiobook.

A good story
