Resumen del Editor
Mellie Smithson is trapped in the country with no suitors and no prospects on the horizon except, perhaps, the exasperating - although admittedly handsome - guest of her father. Unwilling to settle, Mellie will do anything to escape to London.
Trevor Anaedsley's grandfather has cut off his funds until he gets engaged. Beset by creditors, Trevor escapes to the country - ostensibly to visit his old tutor, Mr. Smithson - where he meets Smithson's lovely daughter, Mellie. The obvious solution is suddenly before him. But will this fake engagement go as Trevor and Mellie plan? Or will they find that even the best laid plans often go awry?
Contains mature themes.

Historia
Eight years ago I fell into a secret summer fling with my best friend’s little sister before our lives went in different directions. Now, I’m the grumpy to Juliet’s sunshine on a popular dating podcast we host, and when a wealthy fan gives us a charming coastal cottage as the biggest thank you ever, we head to the town where I grew up to give it a makeover. And find the house has only one bed. Located under a mirrored ceiling.

Historia
Jane Austen fan Amelia Bennett sneaks away from a dull tour of an English country manor, only to run into a man more dashing than Mr. Darcy himself. About to lose his ancestral home to family debts, charming aristocrat Tom Calder invites his American guest to join him in drinking his way through the estate’s priceless wine collection. But when they wake in his bed the next morning, they’re convinced that in their drunken haze they witnessed a murder. Problem is, the body has vanished and no one believes them.

Historia
Grace Evans, an overworked New Yorker looking for a total escape from her busy life, books an Airbnb on a ranch in the middle of Wyoming. When she arrives at the idyllic getaway, she’s pleased to find that the owner is a handsome man by the name of Calvin Wells—and he’s eager to introduce her to his easygoing way of life. But there are things Grace discovers that she’s not too pleased about: a lack of cell phone service. A missing woman. And a feeling that something isn’t right with the ranch.

Lucie Redway knows one thing for certain: her best friend will have the most perfect destination wedding. She may not know if she’ll still have her agony aunt column next month, or if her love life will ever be more exciting than a midnight swipe right, but Lucie would rather exhaust herself than let Stacey down on her Big Day. Not even Charlie, the insufferably attractive and hateful best man, can get in her way. Before the flight touches down in Spain, Lucie is hit with a curveball. Sat next to world-famous psychic Miranda Bloom, she’s told she’ll leave the wedding with the love of her life.

Lovely young Adriana Blackburn is grateful that her marriage to the Marquess of Chalford has taken her away from her drunken father and pinchpenny brother, but it has also taken her away from the social whirl she enjoys in Brighton and London. Although Joshua is kind and tender toward his bride, Adriana begins to believe that he wants her only as a mistress for his half-crumbling Thunderhill Castle in Kent - not as mistress of his heart. But how can she know what Joshua truly feels when nothing seems to disturb his unruffled calm?

Fortunately, she's garnered a rare invitation to Lady Dunlop's "Week of Love" house party, an annual affair notorious for matchmaking. Her plans to expedite a proposal would go smoothly if not for the brash younger sister she must chaperone, her outspoken, disagreeable best friend, and the bullish Lord Hartfell who seems determined to dog her every step.

That ending, though...
The story was much longer than it needed to be. The ending was one of the most anticlimactic I've heard in a long time. I liked the narrator more than many people seemed to, though. If I see another long book by Jade Lee, I'll probably steer clear.

Dull
The title and story caption made the book sound somewhat interesting. It was part of the Audible Escape, so i didn't actually pay for the book. There are parts of the book that just drag on and on unnecessarily. I'm not sure the author understands how english titles work, as there were some minor errors, they don't take away from the story. Narration was fine, nothing great.

1 way to ruin a book ...
1 way to ruin a book? Give it to a BAD narrator!
I gave the story itself 5 Stars since without hearing it I can assume nothing and have nothing to give an opinion on.
HOWEVER!
NARRATOR : She is the reason I Cannot listen to this book! I know I have listened to her in the past .... for whatever its worth. However THIS performance was SO stilted and choppy with each word individually clipped to the extent that it sounds like a list of words instead of sentences! Twice I got to 20 minutes before yanking out my ear buds in DISGUST. A few more times I didn't get to 2 minutes . Needless to say I WANTED to hear this book. But I couldn't concentrate long enough on putting the words together in my mind...
CREDITWORTHY ? NO ! Not in my opinion.!!
HEAT FACTOR? N/A

An Epic... what the hell just happened
Ummm... I was totally invested in this story. Great lead characters, great scenes. But in the end it kind of fizzled. Although it was a good conclusion it just left me disappointed. That it!!

too silly and confused
Would you try another book from Jade Lee and/or Charlotte Anne Dore?
No. Both were not worth the time to listen to this book.
Would you ever listen to anything by Jade Lee again?
This was my first book , but there was no chemistry and there were several scenes that did not make sense or fit into the plot. It just seemed like a series of vignettes that were cobbled into a plot, as if there was a checklist of things that had to go into the book.I also don't like the idea that some authors use that if a woman is smart, she is looking at having sexual experiences as part of her "education". The hero becomes an instructor for sex ed 101. There is nothing romantic about this approach. The innocent country girl to passionate & curious temptress occurs over approx 2 weeks..wow, that's fast!!
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Charlotte Anne Dore?
I really don't think even the best narrator could move through this disaster of confused silliness, to make it enjoyable. No chemistry and poor dialogue can't be made better by a better narrator. Maybe it is for the best that narrating talents weren't wasted here.
What character would you cut from 50 Ways to Ruin a Rake?
Anyone that used the term " cricket princess"... just stupid.
Any additional comments?
Why this title. there is a "way to ruin a rake" that starts every chapter, but there are only 27 chapters. This is a shameless rip-off of 50 shades of gray. Even the title is silly and confusing, so you get a sense of the entire book just from that.
