Publisher's summary

Lorraine Heath ends her best-selling Sins for All Seasons series with the hero listeners have been waiting for!

She wants lessons in seduction.

Althea Stanwick was a perfect lady destined to marry a wealthy lord, until betrayal left her family penniless. Though she’s lost friends, fortune, and respectability, Althea has gained a scandalous plan. If she can learn to seduce, she can obtain power over men and return to society on her terms. She even has the perfect teacher in mind, a man whose sense of honor and dark good looks belie his nickname: Beast.

But desire like this can’t be taught.

Benedict Trewlove may not know his parentage but he knows where he belongs - on the dark side of London, offering protection wherever it’s needed. Yet no woman has ever made such an outrageous request as this mysterious beauty. Althea is out of place amongst vice and sin, even if she offers a wicked temptation he can’t resist. But as the truth of his origin emerges at last, it will take a fierce, wild love to overcome their pasts.

Best of the series

This book is the perfect finale to a very entertaining series. All the characters are rich and memorable as is the story. Kate Reading is the perfect narrator for this book...the whole series. One of the reasons I love this book so much is that it surprised me. Throughout the series Beast is in the background...mentioned but rarely seen or heard. Because of that, I've given him a minor role/non player. BUT....this book proves me wrong. As it turns out, he's the Trewlove with the most compassion, character and the most giving spirit. I fell in love with him at the very beginning...and he'll hold my heart for a very long time. Thank you Lorraine and Kate for a wonderful series from beginning to end.

My favorite of the series

The story is beautiful and fulfilling. Albeit a bit long, so many details were ticked and tied by the end. One of my favorite series any and period romance author.
**spoiler alert**
What happened to Thea’s brothers?
The timing of the parents passing and the dukedom didn’t make sense to me. Other than those two points, I feel satisfied.

Lovely ending to the Trewlove saga.

I usually cannot read all the books in a series, as I get bored generally I find each storyline to be repetitive. But this is a great series! I enjoyed every book, every storyline, background, and cast of characters. Excellent narration. Thanks for the entertainment!

My favorite series in quite some time!

All six books were sensational. I cried during them all, which I haven’t done in ages. They are also so unique in their stories. Start at the beginning of the series and listen to them all. You won’t be sorry.

Saved the best for last.

I liked Mick, Gilly, and Finn’s stories. Aiden’s was meh. Fancy’s was great. But Beast is my fave! I don’t want to spoil anything, but he’s been this enigmatic and wise side character for so many books, I loved seeing him get his due!

Great series with the Truelove family

I listened to all the Truelove sibling’s stories. Loved each one. Could not say what my favorite is. They are all well written with storylines that keep you wanting more.

Outstanding

OK, I will admit this was my first story in this saga. And I’m happy it was great even as a standalone. I will be going back and listening to the other stories. I really loved how Althea and Benedict became friends and really got to know each other even as they were falling in love with each other. Both characters were actually very well written and flushed out. I’m a sucker for beauty and the beast types of stories, and this one did not disappoint.
