Arrangements, Book 2

De: Rebecca Connolly

Narrado por: Jessica Elisa Boyd

To hate and to scold....

Derek Chambers, Marquess of Whitlock, has a problem: his wife. She is the single most horrifying aspect of his life, and the only thing he has ever enjoyed about her are their truly spectacular fights. As such, he prefers having as little to do with her as possible. So when she unexpectedly summons him to London, he surprises himself by going, and finds his life turned upside down in ways he never thought possible.

To loathe and to perish....

Katherine despises her worthless and irritating husband, and nothing bothers her more than the fact that he actually came to London when she sent for him. Worst of all, now that he has come, she needs him to stay. With her. And with his every smile making her heart race, she begins to wonder if there could be more to him than meets the eye.

very touching

I enjoyed this book. It shows what two people who start out wrong can do with just giving each other a chance.

Excellent

Excellent entertainment with unacknowledged love, interfering relatives and a fire in the house to bring everyone together.

wonderful

it was a clever story line. I loved the concept and the interaction. it felt a bit dragged out before reaching a good ending. overall I liked it alot.

Very Enjoyable Read

Any additional comments?

Loved this story. Both the hero and heroine made me laugh constantly with their banter. I also enjoyed Moira's appearances since she knew just how to say what needed to be said. I really like romances with real humor and wit, not just silliness. I look forward to the rest of the series and hope it will be in Audible soon.

Great clean regency romance

Loved this book! It was a great story of an arranged marriage of enemies turned friends and more

A Regency about a married couple

MY TAKE
I really liked Derek and came to love Kate. Connolly does a great job demonstrating how a person can have a tough exterior yet be very vulnerable inside. That was Kate. I didn't get the impression Derek being an obedient son in the first book--not that we saw that much of him--but his portrayal was appropriate to those who show one face to their parents and another to everyone else.

The falling in love part took up a large part of the story. I loved best when they started learning about each other and the rules they'd each grown up with. I got really angry with Derek later for the way he lashed out but the eventual coming together was very touching.

I listened to the audiobook, and Jessica Elisa Boyd did a great job again.

4 1/2 stars

Love. Story

Easy listening clean love story. A couple married for 5 years.....arranged marriage since they were children.....husband lives in the country while wife lives in London. Wife summons her husband home due to a death in the family. So the story begins......

Loved this one

I am enjoying this series immensely. The narration is excellent and the story very enjoyable.

I liked it. A unique story line not so full of unrequited sexual longings.

Nice to be spared the continual description of male arousal and “want you” ‘s page after pages. But truly how can the characters for chapters and chapters be so dense and missing the perception gene.

Thoroughly Enjoyed...but

I thoroughly enjoyed everything about this novel. but I do wish the author would not have thrown in the 3 bad words which could very easily have been left out without changing anything about the characters or the story. It was otherwise morally clean.
