Story
Prudence Landon has always done exactly as she should. She's obeyed her parents' every word, lived by society's every dictate, and even agreed to marry a man more than twice her age simply because it was expected of her. In the fortnight before her wedding, she decides it's high time to bend a few rules before life as she knows it is over. Viscount Ashby leads a charmed life. Betrothed since the age of seven, he is perfectly content to allow his off-the-market status to keep the marriage-minded mamas at bay.

But things aren't always what they seem, and when Sebastian Holmes, Earl of Haverstan, reveals his true reason for abandoning her, Juliette is determined to right the wrong that was done to them both - even if it means causing a scandal the ton won't soon forget.

When fifteen-year-old Clary Fray heads out to the Pandemonium Club in New York City, she hardly expects to witness a murder - much less a murder committed by three teenagers covered with strange tattoos and brandishing bizarre weapons. Then the body disappears into thin air. It's hard to call the police when the murderers are invisible to everyone else and when there is nothing - not even a smear of blood - to show that a boy has died. Or was he a boy?

One thing's for certain: She needs to escape London and her father's tyrannical attempts to find her yet another suitor. The Isle of Synne, an isolated and idyllic retreat off Britain's northern coast, is blessedly far from society's gossip, but it also carries haunting reminders of her first fiancé.

Foul language

By: Lisa Jewell
Publisher's Summary
As the niece of an earl, Elizabeth Abbington knows all about the stifling expectations and responsibilities placed upon peers of the realm. She has no desire to marry into that kind of life. Instead she dreams of traveling abroad, where she can put her talent for languages to good use. When her dear friend invites her on a trip to Spain, Libby jumps at the chance to begin her adventure.
After his younger brother loses a small fortune on the turn of a card, Philip Dain, Duke of Gillingham, decides an intervention is in order. Determined to keep Nigel from falling into the lifestyle that ultimately destroyed their father, Philip offers a deal: If his brother can live in anonymity for a month with him in Spain, Philip will pay his debts outright. By stripping them of the privileged status they've always known and the negative influence of Nigel's friends, Philip hopes, the trip will help turn his brother around.
What Philip doesn't expect is how much he will relish the freedom of shedding his title, if only for a while. When his lack of understanding of the language becomes an issue, Libby comes to his aid. As she falls into the role of their informal interpreter, Libby sees the real him, which makes the growing attraction between them all the more heady. But as love blossoms under the Spanish sun, so, too, does his uncertainty of what will happen when she discovers she's been...Deceived by a Duke.

Torture.
This is probably a good story. I know it's by a good author, but she chose the wrong narrator. Slow drawl, trying to mimic the British upper class, and EMphsis on SYLLables like reading a POem in a singsong manner. She made the story drag with...long...pauses...in.. SENtences...where...noooo...PAUses...
should...BE. I guess she thought the sultry tone was appropriate, but her narration ruined it for me. I had to stop early in the tale, before I ran screaming, away from the torture.
I listened to as much as I could stand, and when I noticed I still had 2 hours and 55 minutes to endure, I thought, "I can't. I can't listen to almost 3 more hours of this."
So, I have made note of her name and will never select another audio book she has narrated. My advice to her: pick up the pace, cut out the melodramatic delivery, and change your name.
I will just read the rest of the story on my Kindle.

Sweet and Simple...
...and sometimes, that is exactly what I want and need. This is the type of Regency or Coventry romance that I read as a teen and beyond, and I wish I could find more of them on Audible. So many are 10+ hours long and full of sex scenes. I am not opposed to nor offended by that, but sometimes I just want the sweet love story.

So sweet
Philip didn't mean to deceive the young lady with the sparkling personality he met while trying to rein in his younger brother's bad habits. It just kind of happened. After all, it was wonderful not having young ladies thrown in his path constantly because he's a duke.
Libby didn't think she would fall in love while accompanying her friend on her friend's honeymoon (still wondering why the new hubby allowed that). How hurt she was to discover she had been fooled. Their HEA was achieved in the end, with minimal pomp and circumstance.
The narrator gave a crisp performance. Very well done.

I played this at twice the speed and it was lovely. Narrator is not the problem, it's the 1.0 speed being only half the speed anyone normally speaks. The story is sweet: titled people falling in love for themselves without knowing their status first.

Another pleasant romance
This is the second novella I’ve listened to by this author. As with the other one I find it to be well written, with a and nicely wrapped up ending - appropriate given the intended length of the story.
I find Erin’s writing has sincerity and her main protagonists to be kind decent human beings. Even the wrong-doers, Nigel in this case, display some sort of decency in the end, as unlikely as it may be from the onset.
This is a clean, enjoyable story which I can safely recommend to most ages.
