The Spymaster's Lady

By: Joanna Bourne

Narrated by: Kirsten Potter

She's braved battlefields. She's stolen dispatches from under the noses of heads of state. She's played the worldly courtesan, the naÔve virgin, the refined British lady, even a Gypsy boy. But Annique Villiers, the elusive spy known as the Fox Cub, has finally met the one man she can't outwit...

British spymaster Robert Grey must enter France and bring back the brilliant, beautiful-and dangerous-Fox Cub. His duty is to capture her and her secrets for England. When the two natural enemies are thrown into prison, they forge an uneasy alliance to break free. But their pact is temporary and betrayal seems inevitable as the fates of nations hang in the balance.

Critic reviews

Praise for the novels of Joanna Bourne:

"Once in a while, during every reader's literary life, you encounter a book that reminds you why you are a reader. It renews your faith, if faith was lost; it rekindles your interest, if interest waned; and every word, every page, is a wonder.....Joanna Bourne is one of the best authors currently writing. If Ms. Bourne continues writing at such quality, she would deserve to be called one of the greatest romance authors ever. And I mean that." --All About Romance

"Books by [Joanna Bourne] are like a box of fine Laduree macaroons, not cheap junk food. They should be leisurely savored as the exquisite delicacies they are, for Bourne is a master wordsmith, able to charm, excite or break a reader’s heart with the stroke of her pen."--Dear Author

Thoroughly Engaging!

Loved this book! Plot was more complicated and unique than most romance novels and the narrator was probably the best I've ever heard.

So Good

Romantic mystery at its best. Excellent historical novel. This is the first novel I have read from this author but it won't be the last.

Excellence and Originality

From the hundreds of Audible titles I have downloaded, no title has entertained more in this genre. Joanna Bourne and Kirsten Potter are an incredibly magical duo offering excellence and originality in both writing and narration. I have listened to "The Spymaster's Lady" so many times that the characters seem like old friends. Unfortunately, only one of Ms. Bourne's books is offered by Audible even though her reviews and ratings exceed those of the formulaic authors regularly offered in abundance from the same genre.

More, please!.

Fun, Whitty and Well Read!

The title says it all. Just a blast and a great escape. I'd get trapped in jail with him any time!

Excitement and Heat!

What a fantastic story! Both leads in the story were fantastic, I loved the build up and the sexual tension between them. The story was great and made you feel super invested. I’m excited for the continuation of the series. Got a love spies.
