The Duke Is Mine

By: Eloisa James

Narrated by: Susan Duerden

“Eloisa James is extraordinary.”
—Lisa Kleypas

In the capable hands of USA Today and New York Times bestselling author Eloisa James, the fairy tales we loved as children take on vibrant—and sensuous—new life. With The Duke is Mine, the beloved author of A Kiss at Midnight and When Beauty Tamed the Beast gives the classic tale of the Princess and the Pea a delightfully romantic Regency spin. Fans of Victoria Alexander and Julia Quinn will simply adore this historical romance gem about a lady reluctantly betrothed to one duke but pursued by another; a tantalizing tale of love, lies, and one very uncomfortable mattress.

Loved it!

The story was original and well performed. Olivia was a wonderful heroine, who was portrayed as having the spunk and skills to be a duchess. It was a believable and enjoyable listen.

Good Book!

Any additional comments?

This was a good book, although there were some lulls in it, this is her twist on the princess and the pea!

James writes smart historical romances

I think Eloisa James is among my favourite historical romance novelists. Her writing is smart, funny, and I'm never disappointed. This addition to her fairy tales is fantastic. Her characters come to life so easily in our imaginations with her descriptions and the way she makes them interact with one another. I would recommend this one in a heartbeat.

Very funny, great romance

This is one of my all time favorite story, not just Eloisa James, but of all my audiobooks. I have listened to it multiple times. The last 2 hours are kind of slow, but they have to rescue a guy to ties up the loose ends. Skip that part and listen to the last 15 minutes. It’s still a super listen! Susan Duerdem is super good with all the voices—as always!

Best book ever!!!

I have been reading all her books and this one is the Best!!! This is the first one that I have cried over!! Absolutely Wonderful!!!
