Slightly Sinful

Bedwyn Saga Series, Book 5

De: Mary Balogh

Narrado por: Rosalyn Landor

As the fires of war raged around him, Lord Alleyne Bedwyn was thrown from his horse and left for dead - only to awaken in the bedchamber of a ladies' brothel. Suddenly the dark, handsome diplomat has no memory of who he is or how he got there - yet of one thing he is certain: The angel who nurses him back to health is the woman he vows to make his own.

But like him, Rachel York is not who she seems. A lovely young woman caught up in a desperate circumstance, she must devise a scheme to regain her stolen fortune. The dashing soldier she rescued from near death could be her savior in disguise. There is just one condition: She must pose as his wife - a masquerade that will embroil them in a sinful scandal, where a man and a woman court impropriety with each daring step...with every taboo kiss that can turn passionate strangers into the truest of lovers.

Contains mature themes.

My new favorite...

I love all of the novels in this series but this is my favorite! I laughed out loud and cried a few times. Lovely!

Humorous and Heartwarming

I really enjoyed the taming of the stern lead character. I laughed often and was delighted with the ending. Great story!

Modified review after second read

I love the story, I had reviewed this book a year ago and starred it a 3 can I say I believe it to be a 5 star..
wow how one perception of a story can changed based on ones own journey. nevertheless the author is always amazing along with the most accomplished reader Rosalyn Landor

Great

I honestly cried at the end of the book, but I’m also pregnant so lol. But I love how this family lives each other. The narrator did a great job personalizing the characters, I felt as though I knew them ❤️.

I found this one funny

I have enjoyed all of the books in the series so far. I do have the last to go. So far, I have found this one most funny. I love the characters especially the four ladies.

Unique plot

I enjoyed the uniqueness of the plot and introduction of new characters. I lean towards the sex after marriage storylines more because I find them more romantic. However, this was good too. I enjoy all of Balogh's works.

Great series

Loved this story and couple. Very engaging. Each installment gets better. Can't wait for the finale.

Great story, great writing, awful FMC

The plot was original and the writing professional, sophisticated and exciting. The dialog was witty, and the characters well developed. The FMC was immature and unlikable. I'm not sure why, but this is a characteristic of this author. That is to make the FMCs all abrasive, petulant, and unreasonable. It's like they go mentally ill a few chapters in and never emerge as approachable women until the end. This being about my 10th M.B. book, I've come to accept this default personality for the heroine and try to enjoy the underlying story instead.

Humorous Twist in the Bedwyn Series

I’ve listened to the series and feel as if I know the family. Yet, this story has a twist with several other vibrant and humorous characters. Fun listen and received it free with my Audiobook membership.

One of my favorites!!

This story is filled with twists and turn and lovely characters. As always Mary Balogh does it and Rosalyn Landor performance gives the story another level!!
Highly recommended
