If Wishes Were Earls

Rhymes With Love

De: Elizabeth Boyle

Narrado por: Susan Duerden

When you wish upon an earl . . .

Harriet Hathaway has only ever wanted one man: the Earl of Roxley. After a passionate interlude at a house party, Harriet is convinced Roxley will do the right thing and propose. But when she returns to London, she finds the roguish earl on the verge of proposing to another.

Yet Harriet refuses to believe that her hopes of a happily-ever-after are completely lost—for she can see the desire still flickering in the earl’s eyes when he looks at her from across the dance floor. And when they are alone . . . there is one wish neither can deny.

. . . the most extraordinary things can happen

The Earl of Roxley is in a dangerous fix—and to keep Harriet safe, he must hold her at arm’s length. He won’t entangle her in the murderous mystery that is threatening to destroy his family and his future. But keeping Harriet Hathaway out of his troubles proves as impossible as it is to keep the determined beauty from stealing his heart.

Wonderful

Best of the series I will definitely listen to this one again loved the characters and the plot.

What a Great Ride!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, definitely! This book was so much fun and really engaging. I'd almost say I liked the mystery plot even better than the romance in this book, though the romance was amazing too!

What other book might you compare If Wishes Were Earls to and why?

Lessons in French by Laura Kinsale. That was another book with some really well written adventure and intrigue along with very moving romance. These books really took me on such a fun ride!

What about Susan Duerden’s performance did you like?

I always love Susan Duerden, she's one of my favorite narrators. She was fabulous as always.

Any additional comments?

Definitely worth the credit!

What a really fun story and series.

I am really enjoying this whole series! This story was very good. The Hero and Heroine are both strong, funny, witty and smart. The heroine, Harriet is pretty funny she can plant a facer and pick a lock! I really enjoyed her character. The hero, Roxley is handsome and sexy. The two had some great chemistry between them and there was a couple of very nicely written sex scenes. Nothing forced between these two.

The story line and plot were great. There was mystery, murder and romance. Lots of very good dialogue throughout the entire book! (I like lots of dialogue). The whole story flowed quite nicely.

I have already started the 4th book in the series The Viscount Who Lived Down the Lane and it's wonderful so far!

I highly recommend this book as well as the entire series.

As for the narrator, it's Susan Duerden, so if you get past the sing song reading voice she is fine, The men sound like men and the women sound like women, and she does, for the most part, give everyone their own distinct voice. She is not my favorite but not my least favorite.

Great Story and Narration

I highly recommend reading the first two books of the series before listening to this one, the buildup for the characters is worth it. This is my favorite book from this series. I love the twist and turns of the story. Both the H&H are strong characters that you just have to adore.

Fun fun fun

If Wishes were Earls was very fun. I loved all the characters, except the bad guys. There is suspense in this story as well as true love. My only complaint is that as the suspense story wrapped up, I had trouble remembering who a few of the characters were. It might have been just me though. My only other complaint is that I find whispering irritating. Elizabeth Boyle has quite a bit of whispering in her books. But, that is just a quirk of mine. I loved the book and Susan Duerden is always a great narrator!
