Heartbreaker

A Hell's Belles Novel, Book 2

De: Sarah MacLean

Narrado por: Mary Jane Wells

New York Times bestselling author Sarah MacLean follows her highly acclaimed Bombshell with Heartbreaker, featuring a fierce, fearless heroine on a mission to steal a duke’s secrets…and his heart.

A Tempting Thief

Raised among London’s most notorious criminals, a twist of fate landed Adelaide Frampton in the bright ballrooms of Mayfair, where she masquerades as a quiet wallflower—so plain and unassuming that no one realizes she’s the Matchbreaker…using her superior skills as a thief to help unwilling brides avoid the altar, all while hiding her own scandalous past.

A Powerful Duke

Henry Carrington, Duke of Clayborn, has spent a lifetime living in perfection and has no time for the scandals that arise every time Adelaide ends another groom. His own reputation is impeccable—and the last thing he needs is a frustrating, fascinating woman discovering the truth of his past, or the secrets he holds close.

A Perfect Match

When the two find themselves on a breakneck journey across Britain to stop a wedding, the duke has no choice but to follow her across Britain on a trip filled with bad weather, bad luck, and a surprising lack of beds. Adelaide soon realizes that this perfect duke kisses like a proper scoundrel, and is turning out to be a thief in his own right…one who won’t stop until he’s stolen her well-guarded heart.

Slow to get into, then it gets better and better as it goes and ends so well. Lovely.

The start was not very promising, but as I kept listening I ended up loving this story. It got really sweet and I fell in love with their love. I love the ..hummm… sounds. The lead male characters grows charming and so romantic.
Great match.
The narrator did an excellent job overall. (His inner dialog was sometimes a little to emphasized but I didn’t mind it.)

Fantastic

This book with Addy and the Duke was humorous and sexy as well! I love the Hells Bells and Imogen is such a blast! I love the storyline, but I wish we knew more of the Dukes parentage.
I would recommend this book for sure!

The narrator is a “10”

Love the narrator! She always does a perfect job of showing the different characters and having incredible inflection to keep the storyline displayed fully. Enjoyed the self talk by the characters how their love match evolved.

Absolutely fabulous narrator and it’s a fun story

I absolutely love this series. I love the smart heroines and the men who love them. And this narrator just makes me laugh. She is fabulous.

So good!

Smart, delightful, and hot. I love Sarah MacLeans writing… fun story, perfect pacing and the characters are dreamy but also hilarious. and Mary Jane Wells is a brilliant narrator. They’re just both so good at what they do.

Total package!

The story, the characters, the humor, the details. Sarah Mary Jane Wells bring the total package!

Fun escape from beginning to end

Sarah MacLean is an amazing author. I have never been disappointed with any of her books. I love this narrator! She gives each character such life. I love the story of these women and men. Very enjoyable and entertaining with humour and smiles.

Love the Hell’s Belles

I love meeting familiar characters especially fearless ones with sharp tongues and a lot of heart. Mary Jane Wells is one of my favorite narrators because she brings the story to life and she is excellent with male voices and accents.

Less frustration with narration of Adelaide as things progressed…

I really enjoyed this story as a continuation of the series. The characters were well developed and the plot and dialogue fun and witty. I was VERY FRUSTRATED at the beginning with MJW’s choice of voice for Adelaide(so odd/a bit “frumpy” which didn’t seem to suit the dynamic character I assume is in her 20s). I feel similar emotions to how Imogen is voiced in this story which I admit tampers my enthusiasm a little for starting her story/the next book. Otherwise narration was great (I usually enjoy MJW across the board). Whether I just got used to it or things changed, by mid book to end I was less bothered.

Addie’s voice

First of all and most important Mary Jane Wells is one of my very favorite narrators She’s wonderful But her character Addie voice was awful to listen to My only reason of mentioning this is hopefully she’ll never use it again
