An Ill-Made Match

Vawdrey Brothers Series, Book 3

By: Alice Coldbreath

Narrated by: Anne Flosnik

Roland Vawdrey is used to the best. As the King's champion he sets all the maiden's hearts a-flutter. When it comes to picking out a wife, he knows exactly what he requires, perfection of face and form.

Naturally, his choice falls on the fair Lenora. His dreams may be haunted by a stolen kiss with uptight Eden, but he's not about to throw himself away on some prim, paragon of virtue!

Eden Montmayne prefers poets to knights, and would rather read a book than watch the jousting. When a betrothal feast goes awry, there is a truly scandalous outcome for Eden and Roland that throws the royal court into chaos. Even more shockingly, people soon start to wonder, could the resulting marriage be the making of them both? Despite the fact it was such an ill-made match?

Contains mature themes.

Excellent series!

So well written. I couldn’t stop listening. The narrator was so good once you get used to the voice.

"He is not a dog!"

If you read the whole series that was such a satisfying exclamation ! The whole series is great. Smart, witty, wise and fun! Thanks audible this series was a great journey !

Great but not the best

I must say first of all that I just love Alice Coldbreath. I hope she continues the sweet yet sexy almost erotic love scenes in all her future books. She has a talent with the sex in her stories. Very tasteful and adds to the story. Now of the three books so far the first is the best. The second is second best and of course the third is third best. This last one drawled on about this regarding the court with king and queen. Comments about the castle having ghosts of past lady’s of the castle was talked about but never addressed. It just wasn’t as good. I found myself fast forwarding several chapters which I never did in the two previous books.
May I please make a recommendation about the narrator? Anne Flosnick is such a bad choice for a lot of books. Please hear me out. She’s sounds like a 60-70 year old woman when these maidens are early 20s. And the men sound old and gruff. If looking for suggestions I’d say Ashford Mcnab or Justine Eyre would make these books go from 4-10 stars in a heart beat. Please consider. Thank you Alice. Great job. Keep them coming.

Loved it

One of my favorite books! Read it on my own first. Decided to listen to it when doing chores to pass the time. My ears had to adjust to the Ms. Flosnik’s voice but after I got used to her I was able to enjoy one of my favorite reads

it gets better as you go

This is a book where you really get to see both characters grow. Eden is uptight and judgemental and Roland is immature and superficial. However Roland really does grow up so much since the 1st book. Eden takes a little longer to grow because of her insecurities but eventually she gets there.
