Boudreaux's Lady

De: Lauren Smith

Narrado por: Heather Wilds

Miss Philippa Wilson's lot in life isn't what she'd choose, but being an upstairs maid for a wealthy baron is better than living on the streets. Little does she know, her lackluster days are about to become decidedly more interesting...and dangerous. When a madman wants Philippa dead, it's going to take more than the plan of her good-hearted employer to save her and find out why she's being targeted. It's going to take a hero...or maybe a rogue.

Beauregard Boudreaux is a notorious rogue, living uneventful days and terribly scandalous nights with little thought to settling down. He needs nothing more than a strong drink, a beautiful mistress, and a spirited card game to be happy. When he intervenes to rescue a friend's upstairs maid from a killer, he's drawn into a game of cat and mouse with the maid used as bait to draw out the killer. But the more time Beau spends with Philippa as her protector, the more he has an irresistible attraction to this mysterious woman.

But Beau has lost too much in life to risk being hurt again. He can't let himself fall in love, not even with the temptation Philippa presents to him. And bloody hell, she is oh-so tempting....

Contains mature themes.

loved it!

I loved this series. I listened to one book after the other. the stories were paced well and this author doesn't treat her readers like idiots so you can solve the mysteries yourself.

Great romance!

I really enjoyed this book and the narrator - I thought she did a great job! The story line was fun and kept me greatly entertained to the end of the book!

Lauren Smith thank you!

Your series is THE BEST!!! Thank you that each story is JUST AS GOOD AS THE FIRST! Writing is a gift and you have it!!! This is definitely your calling!! I hope this encourages you to continue writing and sharing your gift!

Unique!

I imagined there was going to be some kind of twist to make it “okay” for a maid to marry a gentleman, but I was pleasantly surprised by the lack of class centered angst. While it was there, it wasn’t the over arching conflict driver and their world of friends/employers made this tale more believable for the time period.

Narrator did a good job with it.

Loved this book. Spellbinding

I did not expect to like this book so much. From the first sentence to the last, I listened to every word with intense interest. The story had intrigue, murder, mystery, suspense, and of course love. There was not one passage that I could fast forward through as every word counted. Lauren Smith did not disappoint.
