    Lady Mélisande Compton, Countess of Wilmington in her own right, has never forgotten Lord Alessandro Orsini, the Italian rogue she met during her visit to Versailles. When the celebrated rake resurfaces in London, Mélisande seizes the opportunity and shamelessly proposes an affair for the Season with no strings attached. Five years ago, Alessandro met his perfect match in Mélisande. Though the fiercely independent lady has sworn off marriage, it doesn’t stop him from vowing to make her his wife. While seducing her body, Alessandro wages tender warfare on her heart’s defenses.

    Story

    I didnt notice who the narrator was before buying this book. Once again, the whinny, nasal nature detracts from the story. It wasnt quite as bad as the other book i purchased with this narrator it is still annoying and I wont make the mistake again. The story was full of uneccassary dialog between the characters that caused it to be a tedious read.

    "My name is different every month: Brandy, Honey, Amy. Sometimes Joe doesn't even bother to ask, but he never fails to arouse me with his body, his mouth, his touch, no matter what I'm called or where he picks me up. The sex is always amazing....My real name is Sadie, and once a month, over lunch, Joe tells me about his latest conquest. But what Joe doesn't know is that, in my mind, I'm the star of every one-night stand he has revealed to me, or that I'm practically obsessed with our imaginary sex life."

    Story

    I've decided that Megan's books are good but not addictive. She does write a broad well developed story but it's not the "I can't put it down" kind. This story was an interesting one and a little hot. I just would have liked for more of the story to have focused on the eventual love story between the two main characters rather then the unhappy marriage.

    Félicité despises the Spanish and their mercenaries who march into New Orleans to subdue the French Creoles revolting against Louisiana's transfer to Spain. Still, she is not foolish enough to insult them. It's her adoptive brother Valcour who does that, though she gets the blame. Because of it, and in a desperate bid to prevent the execution of her father for treason, she becomes the mistress of ruthless Irish privateer and Spanish officer, Lt. Colonel Morgan McCormack.

    Story

    This story is dry and the narrator makes it even worse. I like a good bodice ripper but the way this one is done ruins what may have been a great story in the hands of a better Auther and narrator.

    Nothing incites Marcus more than the primal hunger roused by his former fiancée, Elizabeth. It’s been years since she jilted him for another man, but that only means there’s a lot to catch up on, a lot to make up for, and that he’s going to enjoy every sweet moment.… The same drive and passion that sent her into another man’s arms is what brings Elizabeth back to Marcus. Her attraction to him is the one thing she fears, but she’s run out of options. Resisting is impossible. But does she have the courage to surrender everything?

    The story was very good and the chemistry between the two characters was excellent. I have to agree with the others regarding the nasal nature of the narrators voice. It is extreme and distracting.

    This was a good short story. I love a dominant man, and this lead was very dominant. I would recommend it for any one who is not looking for instense erotic scenes but a good love story.

    I love Lisa's books and this is no exception but with so many to choose from I have to say it was not my favorite. I vaguely remember reading it years ago, but it was not a sharp memory. However, Lisa is always worth a second read or listen.

    "Gideon Cross came into my life like lightning in the darkness… He was beautiful and brilliant, jagged and white-hot. I was drawn to him as I’d never been to anything or anyone in my life. I craved his touch like a drug, even knowing it would weaken me. I was flawed and damaged, and he opened those cracks in me so easily…Gideon knew. He had demons of his own. And we would become the mirrors that reflected each other’s most private wounds…and desires."

    This is what happened: I met him at the candy store. He turned and smiled at me and I was surprised enough to smile back. This was not a children's candy store, mind you, this was the kind of place you went to buy expensive imported chocolate truffles for your boss' wife because you felt guilty for having sex with him when you were both at a conference in Milwaukee.

    This narrator is emotionless, it ruins the story. Her male voice is terrible. I am so disappointed. I'm strugling to get through the first half, hoping Ill get used to the voices and loose myself in the story. So far no such luck.
