Just Perfect!

This was the perfect ending to this series and my favorite of the three. I could listen to this book over and over.

Worth the Wait

Goodness, it's been a long six months waiting for Daring and the Duke, but it is certainly worth the wait. I venture an audacious claim. Grace is the strongest heroine ever written. Stronger than even our beloved heroines of classic literature. For she is physically powerful as well as strong of character. With Daring and the Duke, Maclean has outdone even her talented self. The depth of characterization, the purpose behind the actions, the tie-in to the two brilliant previous novels result in a magnificent work that is not only highly enjoyable, it is admirable. And if there is any justice in this crazy world of ours that seems to lack that quality, Sarah Maclean will receive the awards and accolades that this brilliant series deserves, that she deserves. You don't have to read Wicked and the Wallflower and Brazen and the Beast to enjoy Daring and the Duke, but you will be cheating yourself if you don't. Thank you to the ever talented, Justine Eyre who gives the Bareknuckle Bastards their voice, and she does it so magnificently. I'm in awe of how the men of the series are so convincing, without any affectations that would distract the listener. The change from female speakers to male is so subtle yet so believable. I am always happy to see her name when I am shopping for my next listen.

Right Book; Wrong Narrator

I waited for this audible. The other books were so swoon worthy. Loved the story plot but I thought this book dragged in places. But then I was so anxious to know why Ewan betrayed his Grace I could hardly wait for the reveal. If the narrator had not been so over the top on reading the passages I would have enjoyed the experience more. Don’t get me wrong the narrator has different character voices she just can’t get the passages right. Sarah’s epilogue are always so darling and this one did not disappoint. As I listened I tried to figure out who would be our next heroine. I mean no one has a stronger heroine in historical romance. Looking forward to our next great read When will you be giving your fans a hint.

Great story, slightly embarrassing sex scenes

I love this authors work, and how she portrays strong women. The reading of the sex scenes though seem so contrived, like someone is making fun of porn. Not sure if it’s the writing or performance. I do find this a lot in regency novels, maybe they are just hard to act out.
