Publisher's summary

"What's gotten into you, dashing about to make a man's poor, tired head spin?... Oh, all right. I'll chase you if you like." He started to get up, changed his mind, and slumped back against the pillow. "Only it's such a bother."

Catherine Pelliston has just escaped a forced marriage to an obnoxious friend of her unreliable father; and now she's truly in the soup; kidnapped and helpless in a London brothel! And though she's been rescued by the very inebriated Max Demowery, Viscount Rand, she may be in even greater danger of falling in love with the shockingly outrageous, scandalously improper Viscount Vagabond!

Excellent story but not great audio production.

I'm very upset that the production quality was so poor. I ADORE Loretta Chase and her sublime story telling. The sound quality was very bad and the recordings of the main hero made him sound like he was shouting. I was half way through the story before I was able to "get into it" and not be so distracted by the sound quality. And of course, once a Loretta Chase story grabs you it's wonderful. Probably could've been a 5 star story if I hadn't been so distracted. I immediately listened to book #2 while I was still accustomed to the production quality. But bottom line is I'd rather have poor production quality than no new Loretta Chase audiobook so I'll take whatever Audible's offering. She's too great a story teller to ignore.

Good book; horrid production

I love Loretta Chase's books. Going back to Her early work is fun. This audiobook suffered from a tremendously bad production. It sounded like it had been recorded over the phone and there was often no differentiation for a section/ chapter change and that caused some confusion. Stevie Zimmerman did a good job with the narration but the sound quality was pathetic. The book itself was great. I love the humor that Chase injects into her books. Always a pleasure to find another of her books.

Loved this book

What did you love best about Viscount Vagabond?

Just like all of Loretta Chases' books I have read so far, Viscount Vagabond is witty. The characters are fantastic and the narrator is excellent. I found myself laughing out loud at several points throughout this book.

Vintage Chase

I am a huge Loretta Chase fan and I quite enjoyed this! The main drawback as others have mentioned is the recording, but if you can get past that it's a very enjoyable romance with classic Loretta touches and writing. It's certainly better than some of her later bombs like Last Night's Scandal. I adore her works overall but she does have some clunkers where her writing is just not up to par. While early and a little "green," this is not one of them.

I enjoyed all except ....

I enjoyed all except....well I'm sorry but I just couldn't reconcile a gentry speaking in "aints" and "I recon" otherwise it was a sweet story and easy to listen to.

Not the best

Not the best from an author I usually enjoy. Terrible narrator, very rushed and wooden.

poor quality recording

Loretta Chase is a genius as always. The narrator is bland but not bad. The sound quality is very tinny.

Loretta has come a long way since this one.

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

A better story

Has Viscount Vagabond turned you off from other books in this genre?

No

What three words best describe Stevie Zimmerman’s performance?

Not bad considering. . . .

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

Don' t think so.

Any additional comments?

This book was written 25 years ago and it's clear that our author has come a long way!!! This is a silly story with silly people doing silly things. The reader tried her best but there just isn't anything there. I couldn't finish this one.
