Bachelors, beware. For those who keep secrets and prey on the innocent, you will be exposed, with all your dirty little secrets laid bare to one and all. You have been warned....

Lady Olivia Haliford has had enough. Tired of seeing women lose their reputations, futures, and sometimes even their lives to scandal while the men walk free, she is ready to take back power and stand up for women everywhere. Along with her two closest friends, she plans to start an anonymous publication dedicated to dishing the dirt and exposing the secrets of society's most eligible bachelors. But in order to do so, she will have to make a deal with the devil....

Sebastian Colver, known as the Bastard of Baker Street, is feared throughout London as the city's most notorious gambling den owner and undisputed king of the underground. He agrees to be a silent partner in the publishing of the Gazette if she will use her connections to sponsor his sister and launch her into Society and away from his dark world.

But exposing the secrets of the rich and powerful can be dangerous. Almost as dangerous as a lady falling in love with the king of the underground.

Contains mature themes.

Good story line

The story was easy to follow chronologically & with several different characters & a unique story to tell. The narration was excellent.

The best of all the Maddison Michaels books!!

Fantastic story with strong characters who bring you through every possible emotion. Two people who do their best to defend others and truly believe they don’t deserve happiness, find each other and try to guard their hearts from being broken. Had happy highs and gut wrenching lows.

If you have read any of Maddison Michaels other books, you know there tends to be some dark criminal backgrounds. You have to be able to handle evil “bad guys” who do evil things and not faint at strong language. That being said, this was such an awesome story. I’m so happy I bought this one.

The next in the series is in print but not yet an audiobook. Hopefully won’t have to wait to long but I’ll be getting the kindle version in the meantime. Favorite from this author so far! Narrator was great, as always, too.

Great story!!!

What a great performance y the narrator!!! Great story line, amazing character development loved this book! Now to read all her books!!!!

Pretty good... but the ending is sappy

Worth a credit. But the ending... made me cringe, There's "happily ever after", and then there's sickeningly sappy... Rewrite?

Mystery and romance

Good story. Liked the mystery, but it was easy to figure out before the characters did.

Just Lovely

As most over-thinkers do, I’ve been feeling a little lost as of late. It’s been a long time since I listened to a whole book. But I throughly enjoyed this installment. Great tension through the lovers and the great secrets that brought them together. Not a wasted credit at all.

Great storyline!!

Enjoyed the story and how it was brought to life with narrator Ashford McNab. I laughed, and teared up, really good read.

Great story

I loved the character development and mystery! I was actually surprised at the end and my heart broke for the characters.

Slow start building up to an intense love story!

When I started the story I enjoyed the story and thought it would turn out to be a light romance but as the story continued it got deep and had a touch of suspense. It ended on a high emotional note with me in tears! I enjoyed the book and was very happy with the happy ever after ending! The narrator was excellent!!

Sweet ending

It got a little slow at times but overall, it was an exciting and fun listen with a happy ending.
