Publisher's Summary

In the dazzling salons and ballrooms of Regency England there are the incomparables and there are the spinsters in training. Perpetual wallflower Charlotte Woodbridge, feels doomed to remain on the shelf, with no interest from any of the men who attend these high society functions. This all changes when she meets a penniless cousin of the Brazilian Ambassador and begins to hope that perhaps a man could care for her after all.

Ricardo Zarco da Camara, the heir to the Marquisates of Camara, is tired of his life of wealthy privilege. He longs to go somewhere where people can see him as he is and not just care for him because of his title and his wealth. Caught up in pretending to be only an impoverished relative, he starts to suspect that he might truly love the enchanting young woman he first met in the library. But now he is stuck with the difficulty of identifying whether she truly cares for him in return and moreover, if she will ever forgive him for lying to her.

Amazing

Such an amazing story, it had some really interesting twists that kept me thinking throughout the book.
For me, a book is good when I feel the emotions throughout the story, and I felt the anger, sadness, nervousness, I even dwelled happy tears. I loved every moment and just could not stop listening.

The story telling really got me right into it too, with great accents that really made it feel like I was almost watching a movie.

a will they won't they romance

I loved the story of the wallflower Charlotte and Ricardo the Portuguese nobleman who loved her. Enthusiastic narrator. Occasional small sound issues. Generally good.
