About this listen

His touch awakens her desire, and his kiss demands surrender.

Lady Verity Ayles will do whatever it takes to protect herself from a vile cur, no matter how scandalous or perilous it may be. And that means aligning with James Radcliffe, the Earl of Maschelly - a scoundrel who spends his days in sin and self-indulgence, and his nights in reckless pursuits. Clearly, a man any young lady of good sense and reputation should stay away from.

James had clawed his way from poverty to the fringes of the ton using his wits and fists. His wicked reputation encourages ladies to approach him for clandestine affairs, never for anything as outrageous as Lady Verity’s request - to teach her how to fight. And in exchange, she will instruct him on all the refined manners a hulking, ruthless, fighting brute as himself needs to net a lady of quality. Never a man to resist a challenge or the company of a beautiful lady, James agrees, and soon finds himself falling endlessly in love with a woman who may never see him as the man of her dreams.

Enjoyable story

It is maybe an unrealistic story for the 1800s since the hero teaches the heroine to fight but yet it was wonderfully written. It is not as passionate as other books done by Stacy Reid but it was still a very enjoyable and wonderfully written book.T

My one annoyance was that I found it awfully frustrating how the heroine and hero would kiss yet still claim it to be a moment of madness or a kiss between friends. They did not communicate how they felt until they ended their what was between them after a night passion and realised they couldn't live without eachother and to see them separated by marriage to another was not something they could live with. It just frustrated me to no end other than it was enjoyable and well written.

Catherine Bilson did an alright job but in my opinion she can't do English accents so that part of the narration is lacking.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
