James Markland, Lord Falconer, knows that he is ugly, very ugly, and he lives a life of seclusion, wearing a heavily cowled mantle to conceal his face from the world. When he learns that a neighboring girl, the exquisite, young Ariel Hawthorne, is about to be sold into marriage with a revolting lecher, he offers her the only protection he can: his name. Of course it will be a marriage in name only, because what woman could want him? A talented artist, Ariel is cursed by her beauty and vulnerability. Though she never sees her husband's face, she is drawn to his kindness and generosity.

Fitzwilliam Darcy is a powerful magician who controls fire, water, and wind. What he cannot control is his growing feelings for Miss Elizabeth Bennet. Elizabeth's sentiments towards Darcy are quite different. She detests his arrogance, and she fears he will expose her use of forbidden magic - forbidden to women, that is. He is the last man in the world she would choose to help her on a difficult and dangerous task. But when a magical war looms between the land of Faerie and their world, a Lord of Faerie demands that Darcy and Elizabeth serve together as his emissaries to make peace.

Quiet Romance
This was a sweet story. The main characters were likeable but not all that interesting. I usually enjoy a little more excitement in my romance, and the storyline did not offer much in the way of conflict. If you do like quiet, sweet romances, then you might enjoy this one.

Great Story! The narrator makes is great!
I will listen to any historical romance that Simon Prebble narrates, which is why I picked this audiobook. I loved the story. Mary Jo Putney is a new author to me but now I'm ready to ready anything she's written.
I hope she has Simon narrate more of her stories.

Enchanting
I love this story. I didn't want to stop listening to go to work! Wonderful characters and they pull you into their world to experience the story with them. I highly recommend this book.

This is a great read!
I adore fantasy novels, and I love romance, this was a wonderful blend of both. I recommend this book to anyone who has ever wished that fantasy books had more romance.

Wonderful!
If you like wizardry and romance this will make for very interesting "reading". Have read is at least 6-7 times. The reader makes everyone become real and even after reading it so many times, I'm still enchanted with it. Set in the 1800s, where wizards are commonplace but not generally accepted, how the two main characters deal with the topic of magic. Would love to see more of Mary Jo Putney's books on this website.

A good story with great characters, what fun!
Simon Prebble is the master that makes the story sing. I may save this one to listen again.

Marriage Spell
This is a wonderful fantasy romance with hero and heroine growing to love each other rather than fall madly in love at first sight.
There journey and triumph over evil bring them closely together and augment there love. I would have really liked to see a follow up focused on the hero’s friends though. The narrator was simply outstanding.

The Marriage Spell is a wonderful story.
Loved the whole story! I wish Mary Jo Putney would write sequels to this story like she originally planned. They need to be told!!

Extremely Entertaining
I have enjoyed several of Ms. Putney's historical romances, and this one did not disappoint. It was rather a unique story line, but she made it work well with interesting and entertaining characters.
Simon Prebble as usual is a great narrator.
