Heartless Duke

May be my favorite in this series. I love how it brings in the book.about her half sister which is dead some time back. Her half.sister Daisy.

IT IS A MUST HAVE!!!!

SO AMAZING UNTIL THE END!!! YOU GET HOOK AND THEN BAM! IT JUST KEEP GIVING AND GIVING... I TOTALLY LOVE THI BOOK AND PERFORMANCE/

Thoroughly Enjoyed

I am enjoying this series so far. The characters are interesting and their background makes them who they are. This book is also steamy. Rosalyn Landor does a nice job for the men's voice.

Meh

I was looking forward to this book after the last one, because I love a good enemies to lovers romance, but this just never lived up to that. The appeal of that kind of story is two people finding common ground despite their opposite sides and that was totally missing here? The story never gave any reason why each of them was willing to betray their long held convictions for each other besides that they found the other instantly attractive. I kept waiting for some moment of connection beyond sexual attraction, but it never came. They could've admired each other for their devotion to their cause, their intelligence or persistence and just... nothing. The sex scenes were great, but in a full novel like this I kept wanting more to their relationship and it didn't come. And SPOILERS (using pregnancy to get them back together at the end felt like a total copout). Reluctantly disappointed. The writing is good though, and I enjoyed the previous book. The narrator is as always excellent, even with the different accents, so that was a definite highlight.

Sex,sex,sex -it may sound good but after a while it was boring!

Even though it brought them together, I did not like all the sex Leo and Bridget had! Especially while Bridget mistrusted Leo! I could have told her John was using her ( and her brother)! Even though in 2024 there now IS home rule in Ireland and no more violence, our family lived in England BEFORE this came about, and I remember the trains being blown up! I hated the violence on innocent people that the Irish did, but they did Eventually get Irish rule - which should have been theirs from the beginning!

Loved it!

very spicy! 🌶🌶🌶 Good story that moved along well. I didn't think I would like Leo , but i ended up loving the Duke! this was my first listen in this series. I plan on going back and listen to the first book about Daisy.... Bridget half sister. I absolutely ❤️ Rosalyn Landor in my opinion she is the best narrator!

Not a storyline I could enjoy.

I only listened through because of Ms. Scott’s exceptional track record for storytelling, and the fantastic narrator.

Ms. Landor is the consummate professional! She brings every ginger, age and accent to life so well that a poor storyline can be diminished. All authors should lobby to have her read their stories.

Turned out well

So, I was initially VERY skeptical of this love story. The start to Bridget and Leo's relationship was unbelievable...even by romance novel standards. I doubted the author's ability to bring them together in a persuasive manner. But, for the most part, I would say she managed to pull it off. Of course, there are lots of holes in the story, and the author relies far too heavily on sex scenes. But, as always, Rosalyn Landor, helped bring the story to life and made it really enjoyable.

I liked the voices chosen

I liked the voices chosen. They held a good temper and clear to hear on headsets

Rosalyn Landor was formidable, but...

After keeping with it till the end, I found that the first chapter characterized the rest: a sentence of "dialogue" surrounded by paragraphs of inner thoughts. Too hard to keep up with what was being discussed. Secondarily, all those inner thoughts of the heroine became tiresome and unreasonable half way through. While others in the series were satisfying, this was hard to keep with till the end.
