Reseñas de la Crítica

"Dalton's Regency debut resonates with real feeling.... Unlike some one-note tortured heroes, Vane is sincere and appealing. Sophia's pain is very real, and every interaction is fraught with honest emotion. As they struggle to recapture their romance, readers will feel deep sympathy with both characters and hope for them to find happiness." ( Publishers Weekly)

UGH Sophia is soooo tedious!

the only reason I kept listening is because of the Duke . Sophia is just toooo rigid and unforgiving. Also hate that she never calls her husband by his name. The narrator is actually very good except for her male voices, they are hard to distinguish. Worth a listen if it stays free.

Angst Galore!

I laughed, I teared up and was very frustrated with the heroine at times. Goose indeed!
this was the first book read from this author. I thought it was well done. If I had to list a complaint it would be the heroine was a bit 'peevish' but other than that, it was a great listen. Worth the money if you love the genre, which I do!

loved it!

love the story of the characters love the narrator! I hope the author comes out with another book looking forward to it!

Pretty good

Mixed feelings about the book. Sometimes I wanted to yell at how stupid some of the characters were. The narration was painfully slow at times and but I got used to it. Pretty good overall but wouldn’t call it great.

Delightful

The overall storyline was well written. it sometimes felt to be a bit slow, however, it was easy to follow and kept me wanting to know, "what's happens next?!"
