New York Times bestselling author Christina Dodd spins the captivating tale of a nobleman whose path crosses again with the one woman he absolutely cannot resist....

A Disastrous Season

A simple statue began the scandal.

A Lady Concealed

An innocent English miss conceived of it, her hands gliding across the clay, delineating each smoothly defined muscle and sinew, creating a sculpture of the man she worshipped. When the likeness was exposed, along with Miss Jane Higgenbothem's secret tendre for Lord Blackburn, the ton's gleeful contempt sent the lady back to the country in disgrace.

A Gentleman Revealed

Now, a decade later, she's back in London, as a chaperone to her beautiful niece. But to Blackburn, Jane's unwitting model, the cool, reticent spinster is still a challenge. She once made the arrogant rake a laughingstock; so why is he tempted to revive an affair that almost began so long ago, on that scandalous evening...?

I have found both Dodd’s audible story’s so well
Crafted looking forward to the third book
I fell in love with Karen Cass
And will listen to everything she has narrated
In truth I pick my books by who narrates them there is only a handful of great readers so discovering Cass was a treat !!! Smart Christina Dodd .

Everything from the story to the narrator was perfection. I liked the main characters and all the minor ones. On top of this you get comedy,romance and intrigue. The narrator was unbelievable giving each character a unique voice that fit them perfectly
Each good character got a happy ending with some nice surprises and the bad guys their comeuppance!

It is a rare book that has it all, this one🥳

I really enjoyed the romance plot and overall plot. I still want to kick Ransom's butt for being too pushy and not marrying her the first time, but the way things worked out it's that much sweeter for her. Also I am still not clear if he meant to ruin her honor by having people walk in or if it was happenstance. The statue misunderstanding was excellent and I am very happy that was a part of this whole story lol.

Perfectly executed bodice ripper

This was really good! I mean I wanted to punch the MMC a couple times but if Jane forgives him I guess I will too. This was so enjoyable and the narrator was amazing!

I love Christina Dodd!

IMHO the narrator sets the pace, presents the bones of the story and portrays the characters as interesting and relatable. That did not happen in this book. The story was pretty good, but there was no umph and no feelings...not my feelings anyway...were invoked. Christina is an experienced writer....I expected more from her than this.

So very bland
