Resumen del Editor

When Lady Esme Byron happens upon a gorgeous naked man sleeping beside a secluded country lake, she can't resist the impulse to sketch him. But when her highly improper drawing is mistakenly revealed at a party, she finds her once-pristine reputation in tatters.

Gabriel, Lord Northcote, may be a notorious rakehell, but he is still stunned to find himself accused of despoiling a duke's sister - especially since he's never set eyes on her. When Esme's six irate brothers demand a hurried trip down the aisle, he has no choice but to comply. He thinks that he can forget about his inconvenient bride, but Esme Byron is no ordinary woman, and Gabriel is about to learn just how unforgettable she can be.

Narration almost made me quit...

The narration of this book was absolutely deplorable. I almost stopped listening several times. I hope never to run across this narrator again.

Good Story Bad Narration

I really like this book series but the narrator on this one was so bad I had to stop and buy the digital version so I could read it instead of listening to it. Hoping the next and last is better so I don’t have to buy the digital version of it too.

Wonderful story, but narrator sounds robotic

I love these books, they're not the same story you hear over and over again. The love (sex) scenes are so very delicious! This narrator was a bit hard to listen to though at times she sounds like a robot, if is wasn't for such a great story I may have stop listening.

I am sorry but the narrator ruin this for me.

Her cadence was awful...it was almost like listening to a child reading out loud. If I didn't like the first book so much and have high hopes for the 3rd I would have quit.

Buy the book, narration is horrible.

I wonder if the author listened to the narration before it was released to the public. I read Lawrences' story before this one and it has a better narrator.
Story is good.

Do yourself a favor

Suggest listening to this book at 1.25 speed. The other reviews are right that the narrator is very robotic and slow. The faster speed helps a lot. As for the story, I was excited to read little Esme’s story since she was so young but interesting in the previous books. The main characters are both likeable. The book wasn’t amazing or awful. It was very much like the other TAW books I’ve read...Enjoyable without being super memorable. Definitely worth listening to on a day of cleaning or projects, but I wouldn’t have listened to it if it wasn’t part of the escape package. I’m not sure it would be worth a credit.

Good Story for Esme

I have read the all of the Byrons books in order and have enjoyed each. I have been pleased that TAW has given each family member a very different story. Of course through the first few books it was obvious that all of the brothers were in love but each not willing to say the words. I am also done with the phrase " Have you not" it becomes grating hearing it repeatedly. Beyond those complaints I have enjoyed the stories, all of the H/H and the strong family references. The sex in all of the books has been hot and I look forward to the main characters finally making their commitments.

The narrator for books 1 - 5 was Rebecca De Leeuw, she did a marvelous job giving the characters separate voices and making the voices appropriate for the character. That was for the series the Byrons of Braebourne. The second series, the Rakes of Cavendish Square each have different narrators. I was not very happy with Barrie Kreinik probably just an adjustment on my part, but on Esme's story, Charlotte Anne Dore was cringe worthy. I don't want to be mean, she has a lovely reading voice however when she goes into characters voices she literally killed my love for Cade, Edward, Jack and Drake. Her pronunciation of words and names also threw me off. I liked Happily Bedded Bliss but nearly did not finish it due to the narrator.

Since I have read all but Lawrence's story, I will complete the series and hope that Beverly Crick (I have liked her in the past) can bring back my love for this family.

Horrible narration

I'm usually very sceptical when I see lots of reviews about narrator being bad. I typically still enjoy the book and don't get put off by narration, but this narrator was awful. She sounded as if she should have been narrating a children's book, not a romance. She made Kade sound like a munchkin from the Wizard of Oz, passionate seems were spoken with little to no emotion, and everyone sounded like children or robots. it really made a good story hard to finish.

Love this series

This new reader is a disaster. She sounds like she is reading and doesn’t do it well. Her voices are terrible also but the general awkwardness of her rhythm is total misery. I listened anyway but hope other authors don’t use her

half prono

why does it have to have prono for love scene instead of a real loving scene? Really! Sex is better left to the reader's own thoughts not written in dirty sex scene.
