A Beastly Kind of Earl

Longhope Abbey, Book .5

De: Mia Vincy

Narrado por: Kate Reading

An outcast fighting for her future....

Thea Knight loves a spot of mischief. She especially loves her current mischief: masquerading as her sister, while finalizing her scheme to expose the dastardly knaves whose lies ruined her life.

Then big, bad-tempered Lord Luxborough upends her game by maneuvering her into marriage. But it's her sister’s name on the license, so the marriage won’t be valid. Thea’s idea? Keep pretending to be her sister until she can run away.

A recluse haunted by his past....

Rafe Landcross, Earl of Luxborough, has no love for mischief. Or marriage. Or people, for that matter. The last thing he wants is a wife - but if he marries, he’ll receive a large sum of much-needed money.

Then he learns that Thea Knight is using a false name. Rafe’s idea? Pretend he doesn’t know her true identity, marry her, and send her packing once the money is his.

A compelling attraction that changes their lives

But as passion ignites and secrets emerge, the mutual deception turns tricky fast. Rafe and Thea face irresistible temptations, unsettling revelations, and a countdown to the day when Thea must leave....

Fun, tender, and steamy, this Gothic-flavored historical romance tells of a fake marriage between a grumpy, scarred hero and a trickster heroine who reminds him how to play.

Extremely Diverting!

This was a spectacular listen! Mia Vincy is definitely a step above the rest with her writing. The dialogue and back-and-forth banter were some of the best I've read/heard in historical romance. Excellent character development. Thea was a thoroughly believable and lovable h.

Thanks to the superb narration by Kate Reading I laughed out loud multiple times! The story was so well-written and enthralling that I couldn't stop listening! After a very late night listening and an unfortunate early alarm, I had to prolong the conclusion which whetted my appetite further!

The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 (it would have been a 6 or 7 if there were an option!) is because of the gratuitous sex scene. I don't need graphic details and find it detracts from a story. I have a vivid enough imagination, I really do not need full descriptions. Even most movies do not give that much detail. Mia Vincy, you don't need a crutch like that - you are a great writer without it. Please consider excluding it in your future historical romance novels.

Well-written, Fun, Superb Narration

I’ve been listening to so many fun Regency romances that I was expecting more of the same: a 4 to 4 1/2-star book, certainly good enough. What I got from Mia Vincy, though, was a solid 5 stars! How can a book be so sexy with just the exchange of kisses? And the dialogue — inner and between characters — is so realistic thanks not only to great writing and humor but to a fabulous actress doing voiceover and male and female protagonists. The icing on the cake for me: Ms. Reading appears to know (1) the difference between “apprise” and “appraise,” and (2) the proper pronunciation of “mischievous.” Yayyyyy.
