A Historical Regency Romance

De: Audrey Ashwood, Rosie Wynter

Narrado por: Marian Hussey

A disgraced young woman with nothing to lose.

A handsome, newly appointed duke, bound by his honor.

Her one opportunity to steal his heart.

Disowned by her parents for helping her sister elope to the Americas, Grace Curtis never expected to capture the attention of the witty and bold George Blackmore, the Duke of Cromford. After the sudden death of his father leaves him with the responsibilities of his elevated station, he has little time for romance...not even with the beautiful Grace.

When Cromford’s younger brother, Edmund, takes an interest in her best friend, Grace encourages the relationship, in the hope of seeing the duke again - and stealing his heart. However, Edmund divulges some unexpectedly worrying truths about his older brother, and Grace soon finds herself questioning her attraction to the newly appointed Duke of Cromford.

As she finds herself embroiled in a bitter war between two brothers, Grace must choose carefully where to place her trust. Will she be able to fathom the duke’s true colors and find happiness?

A tale of love, duty, mistaken assumptions, drama, and intrigue, set against the glittering backdrop of Regency England. To Steal a Duke’s Heart is a clean Regency romance that will keep you up late into the night.

Clean Regency romance novel. No cliffhanger.

Stubborn duke

I just found these new to me authors and I am glad I did. This was a charming story with some suspense. Though it did take the stubborn duke a lot of time to admit his feelings and the character of his brother, everyone has a lesson to learn which made them into better people. I received a complimentary audio and this review is voluntary.

honor such a misleading attribute

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review

Fantastic!

The characters are simply marvelous. The narrator is incredibly talented and truly brings the tale to life. It’s just wonderful to listen to.

First Impressions, Second Chances

This is the first time I've heard a performance by narrator Marian Hussey. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I felt she captured the weakness/frailty of Katherine and innocence of Claire. She also captured the wishy-washiness of Grace (our main character) and the authoritative voice of the Duke (George) and his charming brother, Edmund. Although the story had it's slow points, Ms Hussey's performance never waivered.

This is the second book in this series, but it stands alone too with references to occurrences from book 1. The story had IMHO undertones of Pride n Prejudice with first impressions and judgements made on all parties that set the story in motion. Having not read the back cover of the book, I didn't know where it was going, but I'm glad I kept listening, because it definitely got exciting. I look forward to listening to book 3 and going around to book 1.

I received a free copy of this audiobook from the author/narrator. My views and opinions are voluntarily offered.
