It was whispered all through London Society that Ian Mackenzie was mad, that he’d spent his youth in an asylum, and was not to be trusted - especially with a lady. For the reputation of any woman caught in his presence was instantly ruined. Yet Beth found herself inexorably drawn to the Scottish lord, whose hint of a brogue wrapped around her like silk and whose touch could draw her into a world of ecstasy.

Joan Bennett is a breath away from being a spinster. She’s had four seasons without a suitor. After reading a shockingly sensuous book, Fifty Ways to Sin, Joan decides perhaps it’s time to stop being proper and start being sinful, while she’s still young enough to enjoy it. And what better partner than her brother’s drinking mate, Viscount Burke? He seems the type to know how to give a lady a lascivious adventure.

So wonderful
These stories were amazing. A second chance coin and a few characters, including Dickens himself, link the stories together. I will definitely read more from this author. Clean romance, we defined characters, and fabulous stories. . what more does a reader need.

I loved this book!
I'm so glad that I bought this book. I know that I will listen to it every Christmas. All 3 stories took me to the time of Charles Dickens putting me into the world of old England. Nam McNamara is so good with all of the characters, accents, and personal nuances. Truly I can't imagine anyone being disappointed with thes lovely stories!

First two stories enjoyable
Though the first story started off a little slow I warmed to it and ended up enjoying it. Enjoyed the second story even more. The third story tried my patience. The first person narration was annoying, as were some of Bella’s character traits. Decided not to finish listening to it after a couple of chapters. Life is too short to listen to a story you do not enjoy.

Sweet Dickens-ish stories!
These are perfect for Christmas time. There are some very Christian themes throughout but it isn't preachy and they are well done. I am not normally a fan of Christian books even though I am a Christian lol. I really enjoyed this!
