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.

"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 ! !
