Marry Me, If You Dare

Wagers and Wallflowers, Book 2

By: Alyssa Clarke

Narrated by: Catherine Bilson

The last thing Lady Perdie Crawford expected when she fled London was to encounter difficulties in securing lodgings as a lady traveling alone. Claiming a particular Scotsman as her husband was only supposed to be a brilliant tiny ruse. Except the damn handsome, devilish, charming scoundrel claims they are now truly married, and he must stay by her side to protect her from undesirables.

Perdie was not looking for distraction, or marriage, or the love and attention from any gentleman. Yet, with each moment spent in Thaddeus's presence, attraction burns hot and fierce, and Perdie finds he awakens an irresistible desire within her to which she can never surrender.

What's a lady to do but run...

Unfortunately, London was not where Perdie should have gone. With the ton all atwitter over the newly minted and sought-after Earl of Sherburn, Perdie finds herself face to face with the sensual Scot who is more determined than ever to tear down her walls and claim her as his.

lovey

I really enjoyed this story. I loved that Thaddeus was so patient with her and understood her fears. also loved that in the epilogue he gave her more time before having children. I see a few reviews that said there was no happy ending. lol. This is too astonishing to say if a man gives a young girl of 21 years more time before having children is an unhappy ending. I think the ending perfect and showed that his promise to give her time to travel the world and have fun before settling down to be a mother genuine on his part. true love.

Unlikeable heroine?

I got tired of her selfishly defensive insistence on being free. Her extreme whininess got on my nerves.

Otherwise it was a good enough story.
The narration was okay.
It got hot and steamy.

Tedious, irritating and disappointing.

Is like hitting replay with a selfish and fearful woman. Lost me for any more listens from this series and author. Spoiler alert..not a happy ending escape.
