Resumen del Editor

As the Earl of Fordingham, Tristan Cavendish has lived by the code his father beat into him for so long he's driven everyone in his life away, including his brother. Now he is alone. Loneliness dictates he must change, so he sets out to make amends with his only sibling. Alas, his brother seems none too inclined to hear him out, and a woman who must be a vision from Fordingham's dreams walks into his path. Now, more than ever before, he knows he must change his ways or risk driving her away as well…but how?

Calista Bartlett is on the hunt for a husband - but one who is nothing at all like the betrayer who was her former beau. When she sees the Earl of Fordingham across the room at a soiree, she knows she's found the very man who is everything her one-time beau was not. Fordingham presents an icy facade to the world, but Calista discovers a passionate man who kisses her feverishly and warms her through to the bones. Can she ever convince him to let down his guard permanently?

Great part of the Duke of Danby world of stories

This is one of my favorites from that co-created world of nieces and nephews of a Duke bent on seeing them all married and settled before he dies. But we only get a small taste of the Duke here. And it’s a very short tale.

I just happen to love this particular couple. The Earl here out-Darcies Darcy in the arrogant manner and imposing expectancy that his wishes will be obeyed. Oh but the Mighty will fall. And he falls for the beautiful girl who has the bravery to walk up to him and tell him to come seek an introduction to her.

The story is short but the author tells us an incredible amount of background on the Hero in a few sentences.

Part one of this duo is a great story too. All of Gayle’s stories from this author collaboration are. But I was so happy to see this one available as an audiobook.

I hope it gets a chance from many listeners and that they use it as an inspiration to read the author’s other books.

Unfortunately the series I’m talking about has been out of print for a long time and finding the individual stories of the authors would be a challenge. But I was introduced to this author in those first Christmas collections and many of my favorite authors to this day were from them.

Gotta love it!

If the Duke of Danby makes an appearance it's bound to be good.

Narrator: Eva Hathaway shines as she brings another Catherine Gayle story to life.

Heat Factor: is non existent. (There's a couple good kisses)

Creditworthiness inhibited only by the fact that it costs less than a credit does!
