About this listen

At 18 Angélique Latham is her father's closest, most trusted child, schooled in managing their grand estate. But when he dies, her half-brothers brutally turn her out. Unable to secure employment without connections, Angélique desperately makes her way to Paris, where she rescues a young woman fleeing an abusive madam.

With her upper-class breeding, her impeccable style and her father's bequest, Angélique creates Le Boudoir, soon a sensational establishment where powerful men, secret desires and beautiful women come together.

was a good read easy to follow but a little predictable great narrator loved him

a little predictable

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

I found the story to be simple and even though it was predictable generally nice to listen to. The narrator does a good job. The author was incredible repetitive and feels the need to tell you every minute detail several times over. Sad to say this need to waffle takes a mildly good story and makes it quite irritating to listen/read.

Nice story - poorly written
