Temperance

The Shackleford Sisters, Book 2

De: Beverley Watts

Narrado por: Deirdra Whelan, Mark Elstob

In this funny romantic series, the Shackleford sisters descend on a Regency society that doesn't know what's hit it… Perfect for fans of funny, lighthearted Regency Romances with a little bit of steam.

Reverend Shackleford was at a loss. He'd truly believed that in marrying his eldest daughter Grace to an extremely wealthy peer of the realm, his problems would be over. But as the Reverend was now beginning to realize, it wasn't sufficient to have a wealthy Duke in the family if the daughter he was trying to marry off had the manners of a stable hand. And to Reverend Shackleford's knowledge, his second eldest daughter Temperance is the exact opposite of her name and a harpy to boot. In fact the Reverend very much feared that unless he could find someone to teach her at the very least how to hold her temper, he would be stuck with her forever. But as he was always telling his curate, the Almighty works in mysterious ways. Indeed, Reverend Shackleford believed his prayers were finally answered when he found the very person to take Temperance in hand.

I enjoy a series, the continuation of characters.

The winey voice of the earl. I almost couldn't listen. Female reader did better. I wished she had read the whole story.

Cute story awful male narrator

Good lord the male narrator ruined this story. Seriously he is stunningly bad. It made the story almost impossible to enjoy.

Decent story line and characters

Story line flowed nicely, but oh, some of the voices - a couple of the men sounds like they were actively dying, especially the preacher. temperace’s voice sounded like she was in her nineties.

The narrators were questionable.

The story was well written, interesting and funny. However, the male narrator was lacking. The female was better.

A rollicking ride of fun, it had me laughing

This is exactly what Jane Austin would have written if she had been a bit naughty.
