Impetuous Innocent

De: Stephanie Laurens

Narrado por: Polly Lee

After the death of her father, Georgiana Hartley returns home to England - only to be confronted with the boorish advances of her cousin. Knowing no one, she flees to Dominic Ridgely's estate, hoping the nobleman will bestow a neighborly kindness upon her.

The viscount hears Georgiana's plea to find her a position as a lady's companion with barely concealed ill humor. A lovely innocent such as Miss Hartley subjected to that wretched existence? The very idea is preposterous. Instead, he takes matters into his own hands, introducing her to his sister's influence.

Suddenly Georgiana is transformed into a lady, charming the ton and cultivating a bevy of suitors. Everything is unfolding according to Dominic's plan...until he realizes that he desires Georgiana for his own.

Typical

I was in the mood for a period romance and I thought this one sounded interesting. It was ok, but predictable. I ended up becoming annoyed toward the end. I was 18 once and I hope that I was not that stupid.

Ok

This is a story about a semi insecure girl who can't imagine why someone could love her. You can imagine the ensuing frustration on the part of the reader. There were times I just had to fast forward through her ridiculous meanderings. To add to that the book is completely PG rated. There is zero heat to this book and given who wrote it that was disappointing.

Early Laurens, don’t start with this

This heroine is dumb as a stick. It’s a fun read, because she does a good job with description and detail but her later books are 100% better with heroines who have guts and smarts. I thought I would try to finish all of her regency novels before the romance category goes away. If I had paid for this one, I think I would want my money back. As it was, it was free so it was a diverting way to spend a few hours, no loss.

Wonderful!

Not a bit realistic. I loved it! Great way to escape! I hope this makes 15 words.

Impetuous Innocent

Another Laurens winner. I've read or listened to most of her works. She has never disappointed me.
