In Pursuit of Eliza Cynster

A Cynster Novel

De: Stephanie Laurens

Narrado por: Matthew Brenher

Arguably Regency England’s most scandalous family of misbehaving rogues and ladies, the Cynsters are back! New York Times bestselling author Stephanie Laurens continues her delectable new historical romance series with In Pursuit of Eliza Cynster, focusing on the first of three Cynster sisters, each on a determined quest to find a hero who’s her match in every way possible. When Eliza is kidnapped from her sister’s engagement ball, the plucky miss refuses to be daunted—and her escape leads her straight into the arms of a most unlikely champion. Devoted Laurens and Cynster fans, as well as readers of the acclaimed romance fiction of Lisa Kleypas, will find pursuing Eliza Cynster to be an exceptional delight!

Great story

Even better than the first installment , this story concerns the abduction of Eliza, her escape and the steps they take to elude their captors. This has more adventure and less soul searching than the first installment and is entertaining. Could be a stand alone as well

Good, could've been better!!!

I am a huge fan of Stephanie Laurens and I absolutely love the Cynster family and stories. I certainly was expecting this trilogy to be better especially the second book, I am so disappointed! I honestly hope that the third book is better than this one and they get an idea about the Laird and what he is after. Honestly, I am surprised they have no idea who he is or it is made so easy to kidnap the girls. Overall however, the books were a good listen.

Filler for book three

Too much of the same. 2 kidnappings was very redundant with high tailing it to Scotland
The story was a little more action packed than the first which was nice but the bond between the characters was a bit flat. These were both overkill to set up the third book, not sure why we had such similar story lines but u now expect a lot in the next one. The narrator has great male voices but the females r a little baby sounding. It makes the story telling a little annoying when the main characters are interacting Could have been shorter.
Overall a decent listen.

Finally!

I’ll start by saying, yes this book is almost identical in plot to the book before it. But if you are only going to read one, skip the one before and read this one! Unlike almost every other Cynster book, you have a hero who thinks it is stupid not to tell a woman he loves her AND you have a heroine who doesn’t play games or speak in riddles.
It was so refreshing to finally get to another Cynster book where the hero isn’t afraid of his emotions and can identify them! And to have a sensible heroine! There’s absolutely no “I’ll make her want to marry me by giving her good sex” crazy reasoning here.
I easily put this in the top 3 Cynster novels simply because the hero and the heroine are not thinking/doing the same things as almost very other hero and heroine in this series.
I can’t give this five stars because so much of the kidnapping plot is similar to the previous book. But, thankfully, this one focused on getting away from the kidnappers and not “what are my feelings?”/“she has to marry me and I will convince her with my body so I don’t have to say I love her or even hint that I might”/“I will only marry for love and you can’t make me” tired plots.
I hold out hope that this means the author has FINALLY realized she’s been writing the same hero:heroine and plot book after book. Maybe the next book will stray from that pattern too! One can hope!

Twists and turns like a rivers flow

very interesting and enjoyable story, clear presentation, draws a picture and entertains - the strong characters, a villan with whom one can empathise, a secondary villan who's vileness is reprehensible... thanks
