Publisher's summary

Author Gaelen Foley presents the Inferno Club - a scandalous society of London aristocrats, notorious for their shameless pursuit of pleasure. But the Club's members have a higher, secret purpose: spying for the Crown.

Rohan Kilburn, the Duke of Warrington, has quite a reputation. He's "The Beast" - a debauched rake whose many exploits echo in the countryside surrounding his ancient familial castle. In truth, he's devoted his life to the Inferno Club, swearing off love for duty in an attempt to thwart a tragic family curse.

Beautiful spitfire Kate Madsen wants nothing to do with "The Beast" after she is mistakenly abducted by smugglers and delivered into his fearsome clutches. Rohan similarly refuses to fall for her, mindful of the many dangers in his life. But when she starts to thaw his icy heart, Rohan knows he will do anything to make Kate his own.

Absolutely Amazing! Superb Narration!

I loved this book! It was so good from beginning to end!

Wow was this story good. I really loved these two characters together. Rohen and Kate had some great chemistry and banter. Some of the best written sex scenes I have read. Just excellent writing and story telling going on here.

The story line and plot was great. I loved the conspiracy, kidnapping, sword fight, mystery and all the action. You don't get a lot of that in historical romance books but this one had it all.

I highly recommend this book 100%

As for the narration, well Marian Hussey is one of my very favorite narrators so not only was the story good the narrator made it even better. She does such a great job on the men's voices. Every person gets their own distinct voice and her reading voice is amazing. She reads with emotion and is just a super narrator!

Kate had such a darling character

I really enjoyed reading this book although it took me almost a week and a half to do so. The characters seem real and the interactions believable. I have purchased another book I have been wanting to read but I would love to get back to this series after I finish that book and find-out what happens next.

Any additional comments?

My Dangerous Duke is exceptional story in the Inferno Club series. This story is Rohan about the Duke of Warrington. He is also know as the Beast and he is an Assassin for the Order Of St. Michaels. In this story Warrington has returned to his ancestral home Kilburn Castle. Some of his tenants have run afoul in his absence. To stay Warrington's punishment too themselves they kidnap a virgin sacrifice Miss Katherine Fox/Kate Madsen.

Once Warrington finds out that Kate is not a doxy but a gently born lady and has been use by the Promethean Council to lure her believed deceased father Capt. Fox in to save her. They want the scrolls from there first leader Valerian the Alchemist and only Capt Fox knows the location of were Valerian is buried along with the cults scrolls. The teachings of Alchemy.

The growing romance and love between Warrington and Kate is a lovely romantic tale. It pretty sensual too. It takes a bit for Warrington to trust Kate because she has Valerian Blood. The story has a host of other wonderfully written secondary characters. The story moves quickly with the H/H being intelligent loveable characters who work together and not separately. The storyline of the ties and the war between the Ancient Inferno Club, Order of St. Michaels and The Alchemist Valerian Promethean Cult Council is expanding and growing. This is a very interesting series and bks.1 and 2 will go on my re read list. Excellent stories! I am looking forward to reading bk.3 My Irresistible Earl.
I Highly Recommend My Dangerous Duke, but I do suggest your read bk.1 first My Wicked Marquess first.

Beastly Good

Any additional comments?

The heroine arrives at the Beast's castle as a prisoner dressed like a prostitute. The Beast doesn't know she is forced to come. The H is really not a Beast. That is a facade. He eventually tries to help the heroine, Kate. They go through dangerous experiences to find out the truth of Kate's background and they bond during the process. This is an engaging book that kept my attention throughout. It is not great literature, but it is entertaining and likable literature. I loved the characters and the plot. Well worth the price.

I liked this

There's a reason I don't read reviews before reading/listening to books. I really enjoyed this. I wasn't sure if I'd continue with the series after Book 1. That seemed very disjointed and hard to enjoy. But this one I did like.

I'm a fan of bluestockings and throw in a Duke who's afraid (although he'll never admit to that) to fall in love. Maybe it's the ancient family curse or maybe it's his occupation but he won't allow himself to admit his love for Kate.

Now throw in spies, ocean voyages, kidnapping, and a cave exploration worthy of Indiana Jones. This is a long book but I found it easy to listen to and follow. Narrator was good. I will continue with the series.

Disappointed

I think it would've been a good story but I was too distracted by the narrator. Elizabeth sounded like a ninny half the time. I didn't feel like there wasn't much build up to the "romance". Couldn't do more than half the book. I gave up.

Great!

I enjoyed this book, the mystery and setting was well described. I really like it when there is more than just a streamy hot romance and made me curious about the other books.
