The Dishonorable Miss Delancey

Legacy of Grace Series, Book 3

De: Carolyn Miller

Narrado por: Anna Parker-Naples

Tainted by scandal and forced to leave London for the quieter Brighton countryside, the Honorable Miss Clara DeLancey is a shadow of her former society self. She's lost the man she loved to another and, in a culture that has no patience for self-pity, is struggling with depression. A chance encounter brings her a healing friendship with the sisters of an injured naval captain. But Clara's society mama is appalled at the new company she's keeping.

Captain Benjamin Kemsley is not looking for a wife. But his gallant spirit won't let him ignore the penniless viscount's daughter-not when she so obviously needs assistance to keep moving forward from day to day. Can he protect his heart and still keep her safe?

When they're pushed into the highest echelons of society at the Prince Regent's Brighton Pavilion, this mismatched couple must decide if family honor is more important than their hopes. Can they right the wrongs of the past and find future happiness together-without finances, family support, or royal favor?

Narrator is the worst!

This story is fine enough, but it’s hard to pay attention at times to the story line because the narrator detracts from the story so much! She makes each character come across as whiny brats who are impatient with everything around them at all times. I don’t understand why some narrators are chosen- do the authors get to listen to a clip of their performance first? For me, it’s like listening to someone scratching their nails on a chalkboard. The author needs a different narrator who can actually make the story come to life instead of make me want to stop listening 5 minutes in.

Good but very religious

I enjoyed the book a lot, however, found it to be quite preachy. I am a Christian myself, but some of the religious aspects seemed quite forced rather than flowing naturally.

I loved the idea of a captain falling in love with a lady whose representation was tainted. I also enjoyed the conflict between her, her parents, and her brother. It seemed rather realistic that the brother would do anything he could to get money.

Enjoyable

I enjoyed the story and enjoyed the clean, religious undertones throughout. There wasn’t one sex scene or one swear word. A good clean story of forgiveness, hope and redemption

VERY WELL DONE

I love this author’s creativity. Her stories far surpass other authors with complexity. She supplements the unnecessary intimate details of other romance novels with clean romance & added substance to the storyline. I also like the added historical references & research she has done, with footnotes at the end of the book. The narrator is not my favorite due to her squeaky females voices, somewhat annoying for me but her male voices are good. Thank you for another enjoyable novel.

Best of the series!

I loved everything about this series! Each story was individual but built the framework for the next. This one in particular was a beautiful story of growth and change. The narrator was fantastic as always!

Great Book

I absolutely love historical fiction. It is so much fun to have a little romance mixed with history.

Best of the series

The opening scene made me not want to listen, as the 2nd book in the series was so full of hardships and heavy events, I just didn’t want yet another emotionally trying book… but once past that, the book picked up and I thought the characters and storyline the most interesting and believable of all 3 of the books. I appreciated the biblical references and how the characters applied Christian truths to overcome, heal and build up their lives.

Religious book/ Christian Romance

The storyline was MUCH better in this Book than book 1. Clara's development made her a very enjoyable character. Ben was likable throughout the story. The story had more depth, though still too many superfluous characters floating around. While the focus was still on new found Christianity there was much more attention to the budding romance of the MCs.

Narration was very good.

Redemption and Forgiveness

I enjoyed a tale of forgiveness and redemption in the materialistic and self-centered Regency period,

Regency Delight

I enjoy the Bath setting and of course the Regency Period. This novel is beautifully written with light faith elements. The Narration was great. I would definitely recommended this novel. Nice and clean;)
