Reseñas de la Crítica

"Enoch will have [fans] tittering behind their fans at this hilarious Regency." ( Publishers Weekly)

A truly wonderful read.

Suzanne Enoch is a talented writer. This is the first book in the Scandalous Brides series. It makes you want to read the next one in line. Finding out what happens next is exciting. The next book in line is Taming The notorious Rake.

Great!

What have historical romance come to? Females shooting men and opening gaming hells??? I saw a really delicious twist to the everyday romance and mayhem. He won't behave, shoot him that will keep him in check and yes you do what you have to do to survive so if that means a gaming hell (all be it) a tasteful one, I say go ahead. Suzanne you have outdone yourself with this series, now just keep them coming. We have enough scandalous ladies in this club behind nice titles to make interesting stories-bring them all to life! I can't wait for the next book!

pretty good story

This was a book I enjoyed listening to, very lightweight book. nice little pallette cleanser.

Loved this book..but

Any additional comments?

It was a little too wordy for me. You could have taken about 75 pages of Diane's being a biotch to Haybury and it would have been better but it was still a great story because she was such a strong woman and I liked that about her. And I loved the mysterious Jenny too.

This is my first listen to Ms. Flosnik and she did a wonderful job.

Funny banter made it very entertaining The reader did a great job with neglecting sarcasm in the tones etc. s

I will definitely be looking for more books by this author funny banter made it entertaining. The reader use inflection and tones to help with making the banter lively
