Last Gentleman Standing

De: Jane Ashford

Narrado por: Lucy Scott

A fun, witty regency romance from best-selling author Jane Ashford.

Young heiress Lady Elisabeth Elham has no need for marriage, but warding off London's most charming suitors is easier said than done.

Miss Elisabeth Elham is an unlikely heiress. She never knew the curmudgeonly uncle who died suddenly and left her a fortune. She's proud, outspoken, and independent - a definite challenge for London's fortune hunting suitors.

As various determined gentlemen vie for her attention at balls, routs, picnics, and parties, Elisabeth finds herself embroiled with a charming rake, a mysterious nabob, and an elegant neighbor. This would all be great fun, if only she wasn't so fascinated by the one man in London who's not trying to woo her....

Originally titled Bluestocking, this story has been unavailable for over 25 years.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Jane Ashford's characters are true to their times, yet they radiate the freshness of today." (Historical Novel Reviews)

Enjoyed with a caveat

I enjoyed the book a lot but found the main hero underdeveloped. I thought I learned more about his "competitors" than about him. It was all from her point of view which was fine but where is he coming from? How do his feelings develop? Did not get a feel for it. And still, it was enjoyable.
