Resumen del Editor

In only six weeks, Isla Ramsey is due to marry Henry Northrup, the sixth Earl of Sydney. But she remains haunted by memories of the dashing Hugh Courtney, the Marquess Pierce. The handsome aristocrat had hinted at forever and then tossed her aside, leaving Isla with few viable options. Now, as she awaits her new fiance's arrival from London, she rides her horse past Hugh's estate at Hazelwood every day, pining for a man who was never truly hers.

Hugh Courtney may have left Isla's life, but he can't erase her from his thoughts. When he rescues her from a sudden snowstorm, they are forced to take shelter together at his private estate. In such close quarters there is no escaping each other. Yet no man wants a reckless wife - or a woman promised to another. As fate draws Isla further into his world, Hugh vows to keep her out of his bedchamber. However, some vows are meant to be broken...

My favorite Anna Bradley's

I loved this book because it was hopelessly romantic AND made sense. So many of the Regency genre plots are convoluted, but this one was real and is very well explained and paced. WONDERFUL characters!!

Fantastic narration, too!

Read Reviews, Not what you think.

The book starts out with wonderful and gripping scenes! One problem is that this book was not just about the main characters love story, which I was looking forward to. It includes Lord Sydney’s love story with another man, which took up a great deal of the book. If the author wanted to write his love story it should have been a separate book, as every other love story previously had their own book. Also, that was not what I thought would be included given the summary. I was expecting a strong sassy heroine with witty dialogue and that just wasn’t consistent throughout the book. Really no playful banter at all. Finally while I like the narrator, this one pronounced some of the Scottish names and words differently than in previous books and it just took me out of the story sometimes. I wished I would have skipped this one entirely.

it was ok, Antony Ferguson great reader.

book was boring, fell asleep lessoning to it, it couldn't keep my attention. Antony Ferguson couldn't even help it.

GREAT FUN

This is a most eventful story and keeps you totally involved until the last paragraph. (You might want to keep a pen and paper handy so you can keep track of everyone, though, because the players in every betrothal are ever changing.) (And there are many betrothals.) Hurrah for marriage with love! As always, the narrator is outstanding. Enjoy!

So Romantic!!

I’ve listened to a lot of Anna Bradley books and the side story between Lucas and Sidney was so touching and made the book for me. Love is for everyone! Not just the aristocracy, and not just for straight people.

It’s a no…. Just no

I enjoyed the Somerset sister series but I can’t make it through this first book. I didn’t finish so I gave 4 stars but I would really give 3. Honestly, I don’t understand why Antony narrates so many books because I just can’t with his compassionate voice…. It’s not for me. Shiver.

Absolute Utter Delight

I love this story. The writing is so far above the usual Regency Romance it almost deserves a place on the classic shelf. It’s has tangent plots and asks listeners to open their minds. It is devilish fun and conjures grave concern. Deeply satisfying in a way other light fare books are not. The narration is IMPECCABLE. Enjoyed everything about this production. I consider it a gift because it was among the “free” selections. Thank you!

Loved it!

Several reviewers felt the secondary love story between two men ruined the book. I found that subplot compelling.

Synopsis doesn't include romance between two men!

At least half the book covered the romance between two men. Considering the subject, the synopsis should have included the romance between two men. It's just not something I am interested in when it comes to picking out a book.

It is awful to not include the m/m.

This should have been disclosed in the beginning. It’s not my cup o tea. Had to stop the story.
