The Duke and the Damsel

Pathways to Romance, Book 2

De: Cinnamon Worth

Narrado por: Megan Green

The son of a Duke finds himself in a race against time - his freedom hanging in the balance. Can he find a husband for a stubborn woman who doesn’t want to marry? If not, he might be forced to marry her himself.

When Allison and Fitz are discovered together alone in a greenhouse, Allison’s reputation is threatened, and Fitz learns that Allison is not just another lady but is the sister-in-law of his closest friend. Using his wealth and power, Fitz hopes to avoid a union and salvage her reputation by silencing the witnesses. Unfortunately, one of the witnesses is Allison’s uncle and he wishes to see his niece marry.

Fitz suggests that rather than marry Allison himself, he will introduce her to a series of eligible bachelors so she can pick her own husband. The uncle agrees, provided a groom is found before he returns from a trip he’s taking to Ireland. Unfortunately, Allison does not want to get married.

Will Fitz's plan work, will Allison secure her independence, or will these two find themselves in love?

Set in regency era England, The Duke and The Damsel is the second standalone novel in the sweet romantic series, Pathways to Romance.

Not my favorite.

I received a free copy of this and am voluntarily leaving a review.

I did not care for the story of Allison and Fitz. Every trope that could be played up was. Calling Allison a naive child and assuming she needed a man to watch over her (although she did behave incredibly stupidly at times.) Neither wanting to ‘lose their independence’ if they got married. Both characters were immensely unlikable.

I’ve listened to other stories done by this narrator and enjoyed them. I’m not sure if I’m just tired of hearing the same voice for the third time in a short period of time, or if the story itself kinda killed the narration for me.

I’ll try the next book in the series in the hopes that those characters are more relatable and less annoying than these.

Clean regency romance

Story: (4 stars)

A cute story! The H and the h slowly grow in their maturity as the book progresses. Some pretty funny moments and wording! A satisfying HEA!

I appreciate it when an author takes the time to allow us to see the changes in his/her characters. That way, the HEA feels like it will last.

I’m definitely listening to more by this author :-)

Narration: (3.5 stars)

The narrator does a good job with voices and accents. Her cadence of reading takes a moment to adjust to, but it doesn’t detract. Well-read.

*poor, **ok, ***good, ****very good, *****something special

Cute, fun romance

This is the second book in the series.
This is a good clean fun historical romance.

The characters are well developed and I love the dialogue.

A sweet clean romance

"The Duke and The Damsel: Book 2–Pathways to Romance" by Cinnamon Worth

I found this story to be a light fun 1800’s romance. I received a free audio download from the author with the hope I would post a review. I do like audio books because my eyes may rest while my ears are busy listening. Read the description for the overview of the story. I liked the story because the characters seemed like they could really have lived this story. And, it is a sweet clean romance, which I think is the very best. I hope you will like the story as much as I did, maybe even more!! Happy Reading ! !

Entertaining Romance

I received this book for free. I am voluntarily posting this review and all opinions expressed herein are my own.

This is the second book in the Pathways to Romance series. This book deals with the same family as the first book. There are recurring characters and some references to events which occurred in the first book but I think this is a standalone book and can easily be read without having read the first book in the series. There is no cliffhanger ending.

It's a quick, sweet, entertaining romance. I liked that the two main characters were very similar in their views on marriage, but for very different reasons. It was enjoyable how their attraction for each other kind of snuck up on both of them.

The narrator, Genevieve Frederick, was great.

Heartwarming and sweet

Heartwarming story of Alison and Fritz neither of which wanted to marry yet here they are. Love the continuation from the first book of the Morgan sisters. As with the first good writing good characters and great narration

Great

Sweet, interesting story. The narrator was great. This was well worth the listen. The characters were strong willed, a little stubborn, had a little past damage and were great. I received it as a gift and this is my voluntary review

Clean regency

Very cute story had a happy ending. Fun to listen to- the narrator did a pretty good job too. The ending leaves it open for another book.

The Duke and the Damsel

It's a sweet romance of two people with different but similar likes of love with a common purpose that neither want love but are forced to face their fears and points of veiw to find common ground all while finding they want the other to be in their day to day life and growing to love one another.
