It Started with a Scandal

Pennyroyal Green Series, Book 10

De: Julie Anne Long

Narrado por: Justine Eyre

Lord Philippe Lavay once took to the high seas armed with charm as lethal as his sword, and a stone-cold conviction: he'll restore his family's fortune and honor, no matter the cost. Victory is at last within reach - when a brutal attack snatches it from his grasp and lands him in Pennyroyal Green.

An afternoon of bliss brings a cascade of consequences for Elise Fountain. She is shunned by her family and ousted from a job she loves, and her survival means a plummet down the social ladder to a position no woman has yet been able to keep: housekeeper to a frighteningly formidable prince.

The bold and gentle Elise sees past his battered body into Philippe's barricaded heart...and her innate sensuality ignites his blood. Now a man who thought he could never love and a woman who thought she would never again trust must fight an incendiary passion that could be the ruin of them both.

Contains mature themes.

Good story and voice

I liked the accent used and the story was good and exciting. I felt I knew each character.

Plenty of Romance

I loved the story. The author knows how to play up the tension in a story and I look forward to checking out her other books.

Wonderful

I never leave reviews, but this book, heck, this series, is fantastic. I can’t recommend it enough. The story, characters, dialogue, narrator, and author are all wonderful. I find myself not being able to stop listening and even falling asleep listening too long! Ha! I laugh out loud and I gasp! I love Julie Anne Long. I can’t wait to read more of her work once I’m finished with this series.

love wins out

loved the characters and the pace the story unfolded.
sexy scenes added to the excitement

Enjoyed it

Narration was great. Justine Eyre has been a slow acquired taste for me as I really hated her voice in the past but with time and finding a good speed to listen to her with ( usually .95x) I've come to actually really love her.

This one was an enjoyable installment. Lovely story and good characters and plot.
