By: Megan Bryce

Narrated by: Maureen Cavanaugh

Olivia Blakesley, self-proclaimed spinster extraordinaire, is quite happy with her life. She has her studies and her duties, what need does she have of a husband? With five sisters married she knows the reality does not live up to the promise, and does not need to personally experiment with the state to know she would be ill-suited to it. However, she finds herself envious of at least one aspect of marriage. But to experience the physical side of marriage, one doesn't need a husband, all one needs is the right man....

Nathaniel Jenkins knows his duty. Marry a young girl from a respectable family and father an heir, no matter how cold the endless parade of suitable girls leaves him. But a shocking proposal from a scholarly spinster leaves him wondering if unsuitable is just what he's looking for. Can he convince his spinster that marriage is the greatest experiment of all?

What a fun story.

I have both an audio and e-book of this story. It is a fun story. It does not take long to listen to or read. I love the characters. Nathaniel is so tired of the ladies of the town and his mother so wants him to marry. Then he meets the spinster Olivia Blakesley and things really change for him. Then what she wants from him was a grand bit of writing. I loved how they would go around and around. Olivia is the hard head one in this story. Yet stubborn she maybe it is hard not to see that Nathaniel is just the one she needs the question is will Olivia realize it before it is too late. What a great book to have. I loved Ms. Cavanaugh narration a must get book!

to catch a spinster

this book was very entertaining and sexy. I intend to read it again because it is attention grabbing.

Insipid

Not an original sentence.
Could have been tolerable but the narrator was ghastly . I will for her to avoid in future.insipid

wonderfully simple!!!

It's a very different storyline then a lot of the
HEA Historical Romance novels out there. Yet although it's a simple, errrr..... not so simple?, dilemma for the Heroine that drives this book it easily keeps you entertained. Its funny and sexy, just a little sad and very romantically happy.... yes, I enjoyed it!

NARRATOR : She did a wonderful job! I knew every character, every mood.... and not once did I 'hear' the narrator. Just as it should be!!! There were no distractions that sometimes exist like mispronounced words, bad timing, fluctuating speed or volume, and none of the mouthy sounds that ruin a good book. All in all I enjoyed this book and Maureen Cavanaugh greatly contributed to that.

CREDITWORTHY? : I would give it a definite YES but for the fact that it costs less than a credit does. For me it was definitely dollarworthy!

HEAT FACTOR: Steammmmy!!!!
