Summary

Major Calborne Rutherford returns to England on the trail of an assassin, only to find he's become Lord Ashendon, with the responsibility for vast estates and dependent relatives. Cal can command the toughest of men, but his wild half-sisters are quite another matter. They might just be his undoing.

When he discovers that Miss Emmaline Westwood, the girls' former teacher, guides them with ease, Cal offers her a marriage of convenience. But strong-minded and independent Emm is neither as compliant nor as proper as he expected, and Cal finds himself most inconveniently seduced by his convenient wife.

Emm knows they didn't marry for love, yet beneath her husband's austere facade, she catches glimpses of a man who takes her breath away. As pride, duty, and passion clash, will these two stubborn hearts find more than they ever dreamed of?

A plot of twists and humour, a good story

The story is fun, a typical quality romance from Gracie.
I read this story some years ago, and was rather disappointed in the readers voice.it seemed almost robotic, hesitant, the voice lacked flow where it was needed. Sounding more like the speaking clock than an actor.

Thoroughly enjoyed

Another gem from Anne Gracie who consistently delivers writing that is entertaining. Charlotte Dare adds to the book with a great narrative.

Could not finish

I don't have any idea if this story was any good, I gave up after chapter 3. I don't know what the person who chose this narrator was thinking. Very poor and a waste of a credit

Good overall but.......

Why oh why must a mawkish obligatory sex scene be included in an otherwise enjoyable story. They're all the same and authors seem to cut and paste them altering the occasional word.

Worst narrator ever, can’t get past first two chapters

I’m sorry but I can’t listen to this book anymore due to the narrator. I know we should be happy that people are willing to do the narration, but not when it is completely ruins a good book to the point that you have to stop after a couple of chapters.

An honest review

I thought it was a romance but it was not. She was a stripper for those days and last of the book was practically pornographic. I will not read this author again.

Voice actor needs to learn how to speak in sentences

Oh boy - story was great but the voice actor was frustrating and frankly atrocious! She spoke in monosyllabic form, a space between each word. It did not flow at all! Very stunted! Story was good though

Get ready to fall asleep

The story is good but the narrator is not the best.

she reads the book very slowly, in fits and starts, it's hard to figure out which character is speaking. (Even the men).
