A Rake's Vow: A Cynster Novel

Great continuation of the Cynster series. Sexy & gracious men, a bit of mystery, and fun characters. Of course the narrorator did a great job, as with all Cynster novels. Worth a credit.

A hot story of the Bar Cynster. Should be listened to after the 1)Promise in a Kiss 2)Devil's Bride, and the Secret Love. Simon Prebble gives a strong performance.

Vane was perhaps my favorite character so far in this series. It is hilarious that he leaves London trying to get away from temptation only to become trapped immediately. If he had stayed in London he would not have met with fate. I like the message of fate. I like the humor in the story and the Aunt is a great character. I also like the development of the characters, especially the male characters. Often the story is told from the female characters point of view, but I love knowing how the man feels. I also like knowing that there is no doubt about where this relationship will end.....in marriage. Wish real life were that way!

I did not read the printed book

Yes

No, too long to hold interest

Did not enjoy this one as much as the others in the series. Characters were good, but the the story line was very lacking.

I was a bit disapointed because I loved the first book Devil

I don

Now the narator was good

NO !!! but I will continue to read about the Cynster

I wished I had saved my money on this book ( again I loved Devils Bride )

I am four hours into this novel and I must say it has been excruciating. I can't go on listening.....no really! I can't.
(I think the dedicated passages to her needle work were my undoing.)

I will try this again someday when I am bound and gagged or something. NEXT!

The humor in these Cynster novels is captivating. These strong willed Cynster men who think they can avoid the marriage trap are amusing. Vane trys to avoid the marriage trap and gets caught in the love trap instead. As usual the story is well developed and the sex scenes are hot. Go Simon. He makes the Cynsters live.

Before listening to this book, I deeply enjoyed all Stephanie Laurens’ books I’ve read. This one was a disappointment due to shallow leading man, shallow leading woman, and shallow plot and over the top theatrics on the part of the narrator. Try her “The Lady Chosen” instead.

. . . shame on me. Why I thought a second go 'round with a Stephanie Laurens book would be any better than the first, I will never know. No story, overacting on the part of Mr. Prebble (who is my favorite audible performer) and the height of predictability make for a terrible listening experience. Clearly, this isn't my genre. Lesson learned.

Yes.

Absolutely.

Patience - take her, please!

Of course none of the males of the Bar Cynster are alike and why should they be? In this story, the listener is treated to a clear characterization of Vane Cynster, Devil Cynster's second in command. This story takes you on a wonderful journey wrapped in a hint of mystery, passion, and love. Vane is a typical Cynster male, while his female counterpart, Miss Patience Debbington shows you don't have be born a Cynster to make others bend to your will.
