Story
Painfully shy Jane Huxley is the furthest thing from a diamond of the first water. Bookish, bespectacled, and, well, plain, she never expected to befriend a dissolute charmer like Colin Lacey, much less agree to help him retrieve a lost family heirloom. Fortunately, he is nothing like his cold, rigid older brother. Unfortunately, he is not above deception if it means winning a wager. And that puts Jane in a most precarious position. For Harrison Lacey, the Duke of Blackmore, protecting his family honor is not a choice, it is a necessity.

Interesting Premise for a Story & Nice Romance
- By Yvette on 07-11-14
By: Lauren Smith
Publisher's Summary
Life for Victoria Lacey should be perfect. And it is - perfectly boring.
Agree to marry a lord who has yet to inspire a single, solitary tingle? Why, of course. Smile as though this is not the thousandth time he's mentioned hounds and hunting? It's all in a day's work for the oh-so-proper sister of the Duke of Blackmore. Surely no one would suspect her secret longing for heart-racing, head-spinning passion.
Except, perhaps, a dark stranger...on a terrace...at a ball where she should definitely not be kissing a man she has only just met.
Hatred, not love, drives Lucien Wyatt, Viscount Atherbourne, to tempt the "Flower of Blackmore" into sin. Her brother has done unthinkable damage to Lucien's family, and he intends to exact revenge in the only way left to him: Ruining his enemy's sister, then stealing her from Blackmore by making her his own.
As Lucien carries out his ruthless plan, tutoring his new bride in the finer points of pleasure, her surrender leaves him breathless...and soon a new obsession awakens - a scandalous fascination with his irresistible wife.
Contains mature themes.

What a GREAT find.
I was just roaming around looking for someone new to read, and this title stood out. I always read the reviews, and was turned off about what was said about the narrator. She is really bad, but I increased the speed. That made the listening so much better. This is a great story with some good twists and turns to make it different. I am on to the second book, but I will listen to this one again. Sex scenes are very sensual and moving (if you know what I mean). Glad I took a chance on this one.

I really didn't like this book
I honestly didn't like anything about this book. The "hero" of the story was a manipulative jerk. Everything he did, he did for himself and that didn't change the whole book. He didn't slowly starting acting like a decent human being, let alone an adoring husband.. he was controlling the whole time. And there heroine still somehow fell in love with him. I just don't understand that. The only time they wanted the same thing was in the bedroom and that's not love people.
This book had no substance. The hero didn't learn anything. I guess he made a half butt apology but that's about it. And the heroine was incredibly weak to keep going back to someone who was using her for revenge.
The narrator was good though. It's not her fault the book was terrible.
I plan on reading the next book just because this series has been recommended to me so many times. I feel like there has to be something I am missing. Plus the next book is part of the audible escape program... so I won't have to pay for it.

Book might be good if you could get past narration
I can't tell you if the actual book is good or bad, I couldn't get past chapter 1 because of the narration. This is the first time I've ever given a bad review based solely on the narration, but the narrator would be better suited for breathy soft porn than romance. I swear she sounded more like she was doing a fake, little girl breathy "happy birthday Mr. President" than narrating a book. It was creepy and annoying in equal parts.

Disappointed
The reviews of the book sounded good but I couldn’t through the first chapter. The narrator is terrible. She sounds like she has a combination of a terrible English accent with a French accent thrown in. I guess I’ll have to barrow the book & read it myself. I tried slowing it down & still could only catch part of it. I’m glad it was an Escape book that was easily returned.

Lots of characters to keep track of
I had to listen to the first chapter several times and make a list of all the characters to keep them straight. After that I thought the story was interesting - actually better than most historical romances. What I liked most was the several interesting characters - men and women - whose stories I'd like to see continued in following books in the series. And that doesn't happen often. I'd definitely read any books in the series that continue their stories.

Horrific FAKE British accent
I will never purchase another book with this narrator. I hate it when a great story is ruined by a terrible narrator. This fake british accent bothered me from the beginning and I could not recover. At one point I thought my ears would start bleeding. I think she was going for a Rosalyn Landor impression, but fell so far short it was laughable.
The words "possibility", "cottage" and "black" ( which comes out as "block"...whish would happen when you are faking it), were just a few of the problems.
On top of all of that she made the heroine seem overdramatic and shrill. I could not finish.
Another reviewer said the same thing and I should have believed, but I was silly and took a chance. A waste of a credit. I did like the sory, as much as I could stand. I can only hope this author writes more and uses a skilled narrator, as this series has the same narrator.

Family violence - should come with a warning!
I didn't finish this one.
The premise is that the hero wants revenge on the heroine’s brother. So he seduces and marries her.
Then he sets about isolating her from her family. Forbidding her to see her brother, withholding his letters.
It's straight out of the domestic violence playbook. It's such an unhealthy set-up, I just couldn't finish it.
If it's your jam, more power to you, but you should know what you're getting going in!

Terrible British Accent
The narrator's accent made me cringe and really detracted from the story. I'm American and even I know to pronounce Berkeley Square as "Barkly" Square, not "Berkly" Square. And if you're reading Regency Romances aloud, at least make an attempt to get "ton" right! And those are just two of many examples. As other reviewers have said, the way she pronounces some words makes it hard to understand. I have to use context clues and think, "Oh, that's the word!" before moving on. The story was good enough but I won't be listening to more in this series because they all have the same narrator.

Great story, narrator weird
Great story, but for some reason the narrator keeps pronouncing any word ending in 'ack' as 'ark'. So back becomes bark. No one has ever talked like that in England - even the BBC in the days of received pronunciation. Its a shame (and occasionally very funny eg 'she touched his bark' ) but after a while it just grates. So, along with parlors, stoops, and all the other linguistic errors perhaps we could give bark a rest. Otherwise terrific story by a lady who knows how to write a page turner.

Tons of sex, but not much plot
Although some people find the narrator mispronounces her words (which she does) her voice is actually very seductive and alluring. My problem with this book, is that the vast majority of it was taken up with sex scenes! So if you’re looking for a regency romp, then this is definitely the book for you! Sadly, if you take that away, there wasn’t much left...sad as the plot could of been far more exciting, had the author of focused on fleshing it out (excuse the pun!) lol ;-)

Too obvious
The narrator has and odd way of pronouncing words. She makes all male characters sound the same.
The story is too predictable, the only one fooled is the heroine. Who despite knowing her husband married her for revenge, takes forever to realise he is keeping her family away.
There is alot of sex thrown in as the heroine "can't think straight" when being seduce, TRIPE.
The heroine is spineless, has a few temper tantrums, takes everything thrown at her.
However there are lots of sub-plots, no doubt waiting to come to completion in other books.
