Dancing at Midnight

De: Julia Quinn

Narrado por: Lucy Rayner

Lady Arabella Blydon has beauty and a brain, and she's tired of men who can see only one without the other.

When a suitor tells Arabella he's willing to overlook her appalling bluestocking tendencies on account of her looks and fortune, she decides to take a break from the Marriage Mart. During an extended stay in the country, she never expects to meet Lord John Blackwood, a wounded war hero who intrigues her like no other man.

Lord John has lived through the worst horros of war...but nothing could have been as terrifying to his tormented heart as Lady Arabella. She is intoxicating, infuriating...and she makes him want to live again. Suddenly he's writing bad poetry and climbing trees in the pitch-dark night...just so he can dance with her as the clock strikes midnight. And even though he knows he can never be the sort of man she deserves, he can't help wanting her. But when the harsh light of day replaces the magic of midnight, can this tormented soul learn to love again?

Trigger warning !!!!!

If you are the type to have sensitivity to very dark topics skip it.

Overall enjoyable read but very upsetting scene that is reference multiple times. Just thought it would have been easier to read this story if I had known about it before hand.

Main female lead underwhelming

Arabella or Belle was the most annoying heroine I have ever encountered it was hard to route for her.

good story

bad narration. Rayner didn't know which character was speaking. or when the story telling began. her voice had inflection when it shouldn't and there was just no getting through it. I need to send it back. get the Kindle edition and leave this version alone.

Great Story….Bad Performer

The story is very good with captivating characters. The author draws the listener/reader in to the era and place. Wit and humor are definite adds. Unfortunately, the reader/performer is awful! The shrill and squeaky tone and terrible attempts at many characters makes it almost unbearable to listen to. I won’t bother with the 3rd book if it is the same performer. It was hard enough to get through the 1st 2.

Unexpected Quips

I thought this was a very enjoyable read. I don't like to submit my opinions. It was just such a fun book. I hope you give a try.
