Resumen del Editor

The brooding, illegitimate son of a duke meets his match in the determined woman hired to transform him into a gentleman from USA Today best-selling author Christi Caldwell - perfect for fans of Bridgerton.

Rafe Audley lives to thwart his father, the duke of Bentley. The ne’er-do-well who abandoned his children claims he wants to make up for his failures, but Rafe only cares about protecting the people of his mining community and providing for his three siblings, who've been his sole responsibility since childhood. So far, Rafe has turned away the duke's man of affairs, solicitor, and other interlopers, until the clever duke sends the unlikeliest of people to convince Rafe to join English High Society - a bold and intriguing woman.

Edwina Dalrymple has never failed a charge. She's quite adept at successfully transforming young women of the gentry and daughters of newly minted lords to take their place in society. Taming a bastard son of a duke will be child's play, plus this job promises to enhance her reputation within the ton. All she has to do is fetch the wayward Rafe and groom him to be presentable to Polite Society.

As the tenacious teacher and her domineering, stubborn, refuses-to-be-taught pupil engage in a fiery battle of wills, their chemistry ignites and the true lesson becomes clear: Opposites attract and hearts must be heard.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Along Came a Lady is exactly what I needed to read right now. Edwina and Rafe’s love story is ribboned with subtleties about gender roles and class expectations that make this novel both thoughtful and delightful all at once.” (Jodi Picoult, number one New York Times best-selling author of The Book of Two Ways)

"Christi Caldwell's crisp, sparkling writing is infused with emotion, passion, and a belief in the healing power of love. This is terrific Regency romance!" (Amanda Quick, New York Times best-selling author)

"Emotional, funny, and filled with passion - everything I want in a romance.” (Lorraine Heath, New York Times best-selling author of The Duchess Hunt)

Beautiful Story

Christi Caldwell has done it again. I laughed, I cried, I sighed, I thoroughly loved it. Great story line, deep characters and a wonderful performance by Timothy Campbell.

Unique storyline and great chatacters

This is my first Christi Caldwell book and I thoroughly enjoyed it. And Timothy Campbell is always the best in my opinion. The storyline was very different than the ones I normally read and I enjoyed that uniqueness. Complete with a honorable hero, a quirky heroine and a HEA. I look forward to discovering more of Christi Caldwell's books.

Another lovely story by this author.

I enjoyed this audio book, the interactions of the characters and the happy ending for all. Recommend!

WHEN'S THE NEXT ONE COMING?!?!!!

Loved it! Another perfect collaboration between Christi Caldwell and Timothy Campbell! I'm ready for the next one!!!

I can't wait for the next book!

The narrator was so good, he brought the story to life. He had the right voice for the story line.

Loved!!!

I loved this story and the narrator was amazing as always!!! His voice is incredible, his talent for different accents as well as characters being male, female, old or young are unparalleled!!! I find myself searching out books narrated by Timothy Campbell👍👏👏👏

This series should be good

This is a delightful story with two strong main characters. I enjoyed it. The narration by Tim Campbell is his usual tad overly dramatic but it wasn’t distracting.

Excellent listening

I liked the first book in this series, but I LOVED this one. Rafe and Edwina's story is the best of romances. Rafe is tall, dark, handsome, strong and dependable...the perfect hero. Edwina is smart, clever and tenacious and strong enough to be the perfect foil for Rafe. The only thing lacking in this book is the epilogue. But, I'm hoping to learn more about their perfect love when I read the next book in the series.

Patiently awaited

The story line took too long but when it picked up, it became a page turner. I fell in love with both characters and their parents ☺️

Yawn.

Suuuuuuuuuuper boring. The story is terribly slow and the main characters are surprisingly uninteresting. So disappointing.
