Nobody knows who Miss Rose Sweetly is, and she prefers it that way. She’s a shy, mathematically-minded shopkeeper’s daughter who dreams of the stars. Women like her only ever come to attention through scandal. She’ll take obscurity, thank you very much.

All of England knows who Stephen Shaughnessy is. He’s an infamous advice columnist and a known rake. When he moves into the house next door to Rose, she discovers that he’s also wickedly funny, devilishly flirtatious, and heart-stoppingly handsome. But when he takes an interest in her mathematical work, she realizes that Mr. Shaughnessy isn’t just a scandal waiting to happen. He’s waiting to happen to her…and if she’s not careful, she’ll give in to certain ruination.

Outstanding series!

I have thoroughly enjoyed each book in this series. The main reason is because Ms Milan has followed through with the initial characters while introducing new ones as each book in the series progressed. The story lines of each book are different and interesting. I didn’t want to stop listening until they were over. Then I couldn’t wait to start the next one. The narrator ‘s voice is very pleasant to listen to. This adds to the experience. I would highly recommend this series.

Very enjoyable book.

This was a very enjoyable book. I loved how the main characters are very smart and likable. I can’t imagine what it would have been like back in the 1800s since interracial couples are unfortunately just barely being accepted now. Glad I listened to this one as well. The entire series was very intense and enjoyable.

Enjoyable read.

I loved this story. Wished it was longer. Loved the characters and subjects that are touched on here(it never gets too deep, but doesn't ignore race women's rights) Really enjoyed this story💜

Too short for my precious credit

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

I enjoy the author and series so when I saw a couple more installments were out, I nabbed them. As I installed them in my library, I noticed this was less than 4 hours long, the length of part 1 only of most books. Hugely disappointed, feeling cheated. I really dislike spending the same on a short story as I do on a full length, 8-10 hr read. Courtney Milan is a gem, and the series is good, but DO NOT GET THE AUDIOBOOK. Get a discounted hardcopy or borrow someone elses. At least until they make these a better value.

What about Rosalyn Landor’s performance did you like?

She has done well in all the books I've heard her narrate.

Was Talk Sweetly to Me worth the listening time?

The time, yes, not the cost.

Any additional comments?

I hate this costs the same as an eight to ten hour book. I do recommend the series overall.

Love this story!

absolutely loved how she told a historical with an African woman. Please write more like this!
