Resumen del Editor

A young lady's tarnished reputation might cost her everything in this first book in the Disreputable Debutantes series.

Shy, bookish Sophie Brightwell is expected to make an advantageous match to improve her family's fortunes. However, Sophie's plans to make a spectacular debut go horribly awry when she and her three closest friends are expelled from a young ladies' academy for unbecoming conduct. Since the ton will be sure to close their doors on these disgraced debutantes, they determine that unconventional means need to be employed in the husband-hunting market. Rakehells - the beau monde's wickedest members - might be the only men willing to overlook a young lady's besmirched reputation.

But how does one catch a rake?

Nate Hastings, the devil-may-care Viscount Malverne, is the older brother of Sophie's best friend, fellow disgraced debutante Lady Charlotte. When a terribly foxed Nate accidentally compromises Sophie, Charlotte strikes a wicked bargain: in order to avoid a scandal and the parson's mousetrap, Nate must help Sophie snare a husband. But as Nate fulfills his obligation and begins to instruct the lovely Sophie in the art of luring rakes, he soon finds himself battling his own fierce attraction to her.

Steamy!! I can't wait to complete the series.

Loved it. I can't wait to complete the series. The girls are wonderful. Their friendship is sweet.

Decent Read

Good story line. Good character development. Some of the dialogue between the main characters during intimacy was a bit silly and left me thinking who says that during sex. And the reason the Viscount couldn’t love Sophie was weak. With that said, I still enjoyed the book. I would recommend.

A little hot and naughty on the side

The reader was great and did a fairly believable naughty count voice. I really like that the story line was not wholly predictable or saccharine. It dug a little deeper into what it meant to be shunned. Bravo. Regency romance with an edge. Well worth a listen for those that think they can charm the stripes off a tiger -only to discover a pussy cat. Wishful thinking to some degree, but isn’t that what romance is all about?

Enjoyable story

I enjoyed this story and its characters. The narrator had a pleasant voice, read at a good pace, and kept me engaged in the story.

friendship all around

I love a book series like this great friendship is the common thread here

It is a Romance

Romance titles are not my cup of tea. However, I often enjoy a romance that has a big dose of mystery. In order to really to appreciate a romance novel I prefer something more than a love lost and a love found storyline; throw in a little mystery, intrigue, and/or crime.

wonderful listen

This book was such a joy to listen to. I was laughing and crying. The characters are so rich and full of fun. I couldn't put it down. I was swept away. looking forward to reading/listening to more by this author and hopefully the reader as well. 5 stars all the way.

Just as a Historical romance should be

Decent story, no rambling mental dialogue. I'm not a fan of the narrator as most of the male voices sound sneering , pompous men even when they are friends but don't let that stop your from listening.

Second reading

Despite a few very awkward mispronunciations, the story is engaging and the chemistry between the H and h is both sweet and steamy. I definitely recommend it.

Not what I expected at all! It was a wonderful story.

Great story about strong, brilliant women determined not to settle but set their own standards. This group of friends are thick as thieves and will settle for nothing less than what they deserve. Light, well written story and good narrator.
