About this listen
A double award-winning historical romance
An irrepressible duke, a bookish spinster, a devious murderer... Regency house parties have never been so hazardous!
Oliver Dasenby is the most infuriating man Primrose Garland has ever known. He may be her brother's best friend, but he has an atrocious sense of humor. Eight years in the cavalry hasn't taught him solemnity, nor has the unexpected inheritance of a dukedom.
But when Oliver inherited his dukedom, it appears that he also inherited a murderer.
Oliver might be dreadfully annoying, but Primrose doesn't want him dead. She's going to make certain he survives his inheritance - and the only way to do that is to help him catch the murderer!
Length: full-length novel of 85,000 words.
Sensuality level: regency romance with steamy love scenes.

Lovely light romance - An enjoyable read
This was a light and enjoyable read after an intense murder mystery or thriller . I will listen to more of Emily Larkin.

Dreadfully Delightful
I have enjoyed this particular series immensely. I have just re-read this book for the third time! This is my most favourite of all the Baleful Godmother books to date.
The author learned well from Georgette Heyer. She skilfully utilises romance and humour throughout. The word play between the two main characters keeps the spark alight as she unfolds the characters to the reader and to the other characters e.g. the Duke’s description of one of the ‘would be duchesses’ as a Harpy. The sensuality is not purposely gratuitous and doesn’t need to be at least in this story. I personally would enjoy this Narrator’s interpretation of an ad for toilet tissue! I hope there are more Baleful Godmother tales to follow very soon.
