Publisher's summary

Anne Wynter might not be who she says she is....

But she's managing quite well as a governess to three highborn young ladies. Her job can be a challenge: in a single week she finds herself hiding in a closet full of tubas, playing an evil queen in a play that might be a tragedy (or might be a comedy; no one is sure), and tending to the wounds of the oh-so-dashing Earl of Winstead. After years of dodging unwanted advances, he's the first man who has truly tempted her, and it's getting harder and harder to remind herself that a governess has no business flirting with a nobleman.

Daniel Smythe-Smith might be in mortal danger....

But that's not going to stop the young earl from falling in love. And when he spies a mysterious woman at his family's annual musicale, he vows to pursue her, even if that means spending his days with a 10-year-old who thinks she's a unicorn. But Daniel has an enemy, one who has vowed to see him dead. And when Anne is thrown into peril, he will stop at nothing to ensure their happy ending....

Sweet Read

Who was your favorite character and why?

I loved the hero and heroine in this book, the entire series is great. This book kind of over-lapped the last book in the series, like they took part at the same time so now you get to see the other side.

Which character – as performed by Rosalyn Landor – was your favorite?

Rosalyn Landor is fantatstic, all the characters sounded great.

Any additional comments?

This story is fun, witty, and hard to put down.

Good enjoyable book

I like listening to books in a series. You get an opportunity to learn the characters better and these are likable ones.

LOVED IT!

This book had a wonderful storyline that tied in perfectly with the rest of the Smythe-Smith series. I appreciated the chemistry and similarities between Ann and Daniel. They are a wonderful pair.

Exciting

Slow start but pick up and ended well. Need second epilogue. Really liked this book.

Another winner!

Great story and lovely continuation of the Smythe-Smith story. Loved Daniel and Anne. More dramatic than book 1 but still funny in parts. I LOVED Francis and her unicorns! Nice read ... I recommend.

love rules all rules

Another intriguing storyline full of laughter and adventure. I love the presence of the children.

Some Great Surprises

Overall I loved "A Night Like This" However, it did feel a bit slow paced for a while.

Great love story w/an intriguing twist of mystery

A historical love story true to the amazing talents of J. Quinn, but with the added bonus of an intriguing mystery that leads to thrilling action and suspense throughout. Reminiscent of Quinn's An Offer from a Gentleman, but with more mystery and action!

Unicorn to the rescue.

Exciting, Action pack, Funny, and Romantic. Great listen to the end. Will listen again.

Amazing Story Line!

Performance as always is perfection! The story line is incredibly intriguing and kept my attention!
