About this listen

Amelia Willoughby has been engaged to the Duke of Wyndham for as long as she can remember. Literally. A mere six months old when the contracts were signed, she has spent the rest of her life waiting. And waiting. And waiting . . . for Thomas Cavendish, the oh-so-lofty duke, to finally get around to marrying her. But as she watches him from afar, she has a sneaking suspicion that he never thinks about her at all . . .

It's true. He doesn't. Thomas rather likes having a fiancée—all the better to keep the husband-hunters at bay—and he does intend to marry her . . . eventually. But just when he begins to realize that his bride might be something more than convenient, Thomas's world is rocked by the arrival of his long-lost cousin, who may or may not be the true Duke of Wyndham. And if Thomas is not the duke, then he's not engaged to Amelia. Which is the cruelest joke of all, because this arrogant and illustrious duke has made the mistake of falling in love . . . with his own fiancée!

l enjoyed this story very much. lt was a bit different. The story kept me engaged which is a task these days with most romantic historicals being a rehash of the same story. Well written with well fleshed out characters.

Excluding the last couple of chapters, this book is the same story as the first, told from Thomas’ and Amelia’s point of view.

Repetitive

After reading the first book in the series, the second seems a little repetitive. It's only really the last 2 chapters of the book that tell a story you feel like you haven't already heard. Still, it's very well narrated by the lovely Rosalyn Landor. But no way near my favourite Julia Quinn book.

Story seems a little familiar.
