About this listen

Harry Stillman cares nothing for his future and spends his time at gaming tables, horse races, and in the company of whatever beautiful woman has caught his eye that week. He has little use for society or his uncle’s approval - until his debts begin exceeding his profits. When Uncle Elliott refuses to pay off the debt and instead offers him a large, monetary wedding gift if Harry were to marry a woman of his uncle’s approval, Harry is offended, angry, and - scared. His dire straits drives him to seek out the infamous Lord Damion - a money lender who extolls a heavy price for his assistance.

Lord Damion, however, is not a lord at all, or even a man. When Lady Sabrina’s cheating husband leaves her, then ends up dying in a carriage accident, she creates a plan to ensure her future security through the secret persona of Lord Damion, and she is quickly becoming the richest woman in England.

Knee-deep in secrets, both Harry and Sabrina must decide what true love means to them and how to navigate the pitfalls of English high society. In the end, both must decide which is more important: wealth or true love.

Another great Mayfield family story

Loved this book. Yes it is a sweet period drama romance but it also highlights how people can improve their situations for the better.

Great story - excellent narration

I am really enjoying the Mayfield Family series. Sabrina & Harry’s story was the fourth of the novels I’d listened to and it didn’t disappoint. Justine Eyre is a fantastic narrator, portraying warm endearing good characters and horrible thugs & baddies.

Uncle Elliot has 7 (?) nieces and nephews so I can’t wait to listen to the remaining stories once they’re published.

Characters

Characters not as interesting or loveable in this story, but good to read another perspective on the family background.
Enjoyed the series. Enjoyed the narration in all.
