Accidentally Compromising the Duke

By: Stacy Reid

Narrated by: Madeleine Leslay

England, 1817. Miss Adeline Hays is out of options. Determined to escape marriage to a repugnant earl, Adeline plans to deliberately allow herself to be caught in a compromising position at a house party with the much kinder man she’d hoped to marry. Instead, Adeline accidentally enters the wrong chamber and tumbles into the bed of the mad duke.

Edmond Rochester, the duke of Wolverton, is seeking a wife to care for his two daughters. He’s looking for a young lady of sensibilities and accomplishment, someone who, most importantly, he’s not attracted to - the complete opposite of the bewitching beauty who traps him into marriage. But despite the lust he feels for his new duchess, Edmond is resolved to never allow them intimacy, refusing to ever again suffer the tormenting loss of a loved one.

Loved it

Love the story line and the characters. They really made it come to life. Narrater was great Will look for another book by this author.

Loved it!!!

Wonderful as always, loved the content, the characters and very well written, will continue the series.

Facing fears to overcome

Often we judge by another’s actions….not fully understanding their past. Loved this story of strength by overcoming one’s former tragedy. Adeline’s strength to make the best of her situations gives courage. Very much enjoyed this narrator too. It always amazes me how a woman can perform a male’s character so believably.

A lovely story

I loved the story by Reid. The tale of self-forgiveness and opening one’s heart again to love was beautifully written.
The narration wasn’t my favorite. It often sounded stiff and unfeeling, while at other times emotive. My opinion is that Leslay does a more credible job with narrating females than men and children. It distracted from, however did not ruin the story

Good enough to read.

I have only read a few books from this author, and all though are not five star, in my opinion. There is talent. Mild typist to mild plot steamy (1-10) it’s an 8.
