London's Wicked Affair

Midnight Secrets, Book 1

De: Anabelle Bryant

Narrado por: Victoria Aston

In Anabelle Bryant's wickedly romantic new series, secrets and seduction go hand in hand....

Lunden Beckford, duke of Scarsdale, has chosen to exile himself far from London, with its painful memories and cruel gossip. Forced back to town on business, he's eager to make his stay as brief as possible. But first, he must honor his promise to find a suitable husband for his friend's little sister.

On one hand, Amelia Strathmore has grown into a stunning, statuesque beauty. On the other, the willful chit is more likely to scandalize a drawing room with her outspoken opinions than blush prettily. At least she agrees to accept his help - if he fulfills certain conditions....

Though duty-bound to marry, Amelia longs to secretly enjoy some of life's freedoms first. In this, as in many things, Lunden proves an excellent guide. In fact, Amelia's girlhood admiration for her brother's friend is fast becoming something far less innocent.

Lunden believes he's known too much darkness to offer any woman happiness. Yet Amelia is starting to see how much pleasure can lie within the right partnership - especially if one is willing to be a little wicked....

Contains mature themes.

Falling for your friend’s sibling is one of my favorite tropes!

This is the second time around for me with this book and I enjoyed it so much both times. The first time I read and then this time I listened. I loved the storyline and I liked the narrator as she was easy to follow.

Marry for love

Amelia's continues rants "I wish to marry for love" was tiresome. London's poor poor pitiful me monologs, tiresome. The breathy narrator tiresome. Waiting till the very last chapter to get some slightly interesting information on some of the characters was madding. Call me a sucker because even after that review I will listen to book 2.

Great read

I love London’s mellowness but I wish he would of fought back to Amelia’s brother . Also I’m said there was no epilogue!! I need those !!
Did London and Matthew make up and apologize. Did they have kids ? Where did they end of living ? What happened to Charlotte?? Poor girl was miserable ... overall I liked the story
Thank you !

Great characters

Lovely story with interesting characters and relationships. The narrator is good but reads like she’s on a marathon. She should slow down, take some pauses. I had to reduce the speed to enjoy it.

Such a Really Good Book!

I fell in love with the brooding Lunden, but he has been through so much! I felt so bad for him. Amelia is a beautiful sassy and independent lady. They are perfect for each other and she will prove it to him.
Such a wonderful storyline filled with great characters and attention to details.
The only thing is that I had to listen at 1.5 because I wasn’t crazy about the narrator.
