Two Masquerades and a Major

The Seduction, Book 3

De: Eloisa James

Narrado por: Felicity Foster

In this delightful, sensual romp by bestselling author Eloisa James, Miss Olive Tyron falls in love with a major—who promptly walks away when he realizes who she is.

Livie never worried much about the world’s opinion of her—until the world despised her.

One minute she is happily dancing through her first Season, and the next her family is plunged into scandal and exiled from society.

Stealing into a masquerade ball, she meets the handsome, honorable Major FitzRoy, son of an earl. Yet if she removes her mask and tells Joshua her name, the scandal might engulf him as well.

Could he possibly love her enough to give up his career—and his honor?

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Very strongly recommended…a carefully crafted historical romance novel by Eloisa James that is brought vividly to life in a true 'theatre of the mind' listening experience by the eloquent storytelling talents of Felicity Foster.”—Midwest Book Review

The book pulls you in from the start.

I really enjoyed this book. It seemed to go very quickly. I will definitely listen to this book again!

Likable

Livi and the Major are both likable. Although, when Joshua misunderstands her early on, I felt like his reaction was overblown and harsh, and it was difficult for me to get back on board for their love story. There wasn’t enough reason for me outside of infatuation why Livi would still want him after what he said, especially considered the emotional abuse she received from her father.
Lord Devon is likable as always. I liked Daisy until the scene in the Tower. In that scene she shows herself to be a silly idiot, not thinking about the feelings of her cousin, more concerned with proving a point (and a ridiculous one at that). But she came around in the end. (I’m hoping her match is with Fredrick, but I fear it’s Devon)

what a sweet story

this was it great escape for a cloudy weekend. Not too much drama, not too much sex, and no foul language. Just a nice love story. Sometimes it’s great just to read a predictable story that has a happy ending.

story and reading.

Liked the reader. Liked the trilogy. Happy with the ending. Reader very clear and understandable.

Disappointed

The narrator was disappointing. That story could not be from Eloisa James. It doesn’t sound like any of her others in format.

Not her best work.

The hero was a bit shallow and too concerned about honor. The heroine too, was a bit too easy to give up on her love, but unwilling to give up on her cruel father. What was that all about? The narration was clipped.

sort of dumb but inoffensive

This is by far the best of this trilogy, although the first two set a low bar. There is an almost interesting sort of mystery, and it's not disturbing like the other stories. the narrator performs extremely well, but she mispronounces a zillion words. Not anywhere near Eloísa James's finest. None of these three is worth spending a credit.
