About this listen

They proved their bravery fighting for His Majesty’s Secret Service and were rewarded with brides of great beauty and breeding. But one member of the Bastion Club has remained a bachelor - until now.

“Christian, I need your help. There is no one else I can turn to…L.”

When Christian Allardyce, sixth Marquess of Dearne, reads those words, his world turns upside down. Lady Letitia Randall is a woman like no other, and the day he left her behind to fight for king and country was the most difficult of his life. He never forgot the feel of her lips against his, but he never expected to see her again. Yet now she seeks his help, and Christian knows he will not resist her plea.

Letitia believes that Christian abandoned her when she needed him most, and she hates to call on his aid. But to clear her brother’s name, she has sworn to use every weapon at her command, even if it means seducing her ex-lover. Yet all the while, Christian is waging a war of his own - a campaign of pure pleasure and sweet revenge that will take them both beyond the edge of desire.

Critic Reviews

“Top Pick! The Bastion Club’s latest installment features an ultrapassionate and honorable hero and a prideful heroine, along with a masterfully crafted murder mystery - loaded with red herrings - just what we expect from an author who knows the Regency’s dark corners as well as the bright lights of a ballroom. Another not-to-be-missed, can’t-put-it-down keeper.” ( Romantic Times)
“Ms. Laurens delves into the social distinctions between classes in this wickedly captivating romance. Watching her portrayal of Letitia’s famous temper as it bursts will have readers rolling in laughter.” (Fresh Fiction)

One of the best in the series

A great adjunct in the series. Both the love story and back story were different and intruiging.
A little less description on the love scences is warranted especially when whole chapters are dedicated to it.
Still not as keen on this narrator but that’s just a personal choice.
Highly recommended.

Excellent story

Great story by Stephanie as usual have loved all of the Bastion series so far and looking forward to the final one, was not keen on Stephen Crossley interpretation preferred Jill Tanner but love Stephen Pebble readings of some of the Synster series. it really annoyed me when he kept saying Dalziel instead of DL as was pronounced in previous stories i thought it took away some of the mystery of the man and i thought he made the characters sound a lot older than they were more like 50 instead of 30s the actual story was intriguing and kept me guessing have not listened to a Stephanie Laurens book that i have not thoroughly enjoyed though some readers better than others none were terrible
