Dressed to Kiss

De: Caroline Linden, Madeline Hunter, Megan Frampton, Myretta Robens

Narrado por: Danielle Cohen

The Duke's Dressmaker: Four years ago the Duke of Barrowmore's brother seduced and abandoned Selina Fontaine to scandal, and she holds the duke responsible. The duke is more interested in pursuing her than exposing her, however - and that pursuit soon becomes seductively pleasurable.

The Colors of Love: Delyth Owen's exuberant passion for her new job as a dressmaker at Madame Follette's is matched only by her love of diverse, vibrant, and frequently unfortunate color combinations. Simon Merrithew is horrified by the gown Delyth creates for a friend and suspects her motives.

No Accounting for Love: Tasked with making certain her charge does not contract herself to someone inappropriate, Miss Katherine Grant finds herself drawn to Mr. Henry Dawkins, the inappropriate gentleman Lady Euphemia wants. But it seems that Henry only has eyes for Miss Katherine Grant.

A Fashionable Affair: Madame Follette's is Felicity Dawkins' birthright; her mother founded it and now she runs it. The Earl of Carmarthen also has big plans for the shop - he wants to buy it and tear it down to make way for a grand new boulevard of shops. One way or another, he's determined to persuade Felicity.

Contains mature themes.

Great read!

I did enjoy all three stories. I love that the authors were very similar in style and in sync with these four stories. I also enjoyed the fact that it was a long read. normally I can listen to a book in a day. this took me two and a half days.

Excellent

This may be the best Regency anthology I’ve read. Each swoony story offers a complete and satisfying romance in a small package.

Happy endings

Four authors writing about four women and their experiences in the same period of time; each author writing the story of a different individual.

Easy listening

I really enjoyed these stories because they were easy to listen to. There was no serious angst or frustrations, just good romance

These stories written by different authors are very well connected and the narrator does an excellent job throughout. I remember listening to this book many years ago but I remembered it as one story, not the way it's offered now. This is a good choice if you are looking for an easy listen that holds your interest.

Worth

Good stories and they were all short enough to not drag into the usual stupid regency novel miscommunication-based plot twists that make stories stupid and unbearable.

Buy this one—tons of entertainment bang for your buck.

Delightful

Four delightful short stories by four different authors centered around the dress shop "Madame Follette's". They tell how four different characters found love through the fashionable dress shop, Madame Follette's daughter and son, Felicity and Henry Dawkins, dressmakers Selina Fountaine and Delyth Owen's. The four stories, though centered around the same dress shop, are different and there is no actual continuity between the stories. All four are short, delightful reads, tastefully written.

Declined as it progressed

Tough to finish. First story was good but declined from there. Having a tough time remembering the details that were annoying.
