Hugh Philemon Ancaster, seventh Duke of Ripley, will never win prizes for virtue. But even he draws the line at running off with his best friend's bride. All he's trying to do is recapture the slightly inebriated Lady Olympia Hightower and return her to her intended bridegroom. For reasons that elude her, bookish, bespectacled Olympia is supposed to marry a gorgeous rake of a duke. The ton is flabbergasted. Her family's ecstatic. And Olympia? She's climbing out of a window, bent on a getaway.

Since his return from war, the Duke of Ashbury's to-do list has been short and anything but sweet: brooding, glowering, menacing London ne'er-do-wells by night. Now there's a new item on the list. He needs an heir - which means he needs a wife. When Emma Gladstone, a vicar's daughter turned seamstress, appears in his library wearing a wedding gown, he decides on the spot that she'll do.

Darius Carsington is a spectacularly attractive rake, who's all brains and brawn...and no heart; a man who's equally expert at bedding loose-moraled women and writing scholarly papers. He finds society's "perfect darlings" exceedingly boring. Then why is he so intrigued by the supposedly faultless Lady Charlotte Hayward? Darius senses a crack under her polished surface - and finding it is a challenge he can't resist.

Publisher's Summary

The traditional Regency classic from New York Times best-seller Loretta Chase is back.…

A comedy of manners…

Her father’s prodigal ways have forced the extremely lovely Alexandra Ashmore into an engagement with a strange man in a strange land: a man blind to the effect her unearthly beauty has on other men, and which has earned her the title "the English Witch"! So when she’s kidnapped by another love-struck suitor, Alexandra assumes she’s truly doomed to a loveless marriage with her captor.

A villain redeemed…

But her troubles have only begun - for although she's quickly rescued, her brave "hero" is the notoriously irresistible, unrepentant scoundrel Basil Trevelyan, who finds himself quite taken with the tart, spirited Alexandra. So taken, in fact, that he’s determined to make her his own. Now, if he can only charm her into agreeing with his plan!

The English Witch

I like reading early books by successful authors. The stories have bright nuggets of things that make us enjoy the later books.

This story is comfortably predictable, and good for relaxing with a cup of very English tea.

A Charming Romp

After reading Isabella I looked forward to reading this second entry in the series. Starting in Armenia with a vague archeologist and his bewitching daughter we travel with them back to England accompanied by a handsome rake . Multiple engagements, one kidnapping, a couple of elopements and lots of lords and ladies keep the tangled plot moving. The dialogue is great fun and kept a smile on my face all the way through.

Glad I went back for this

Older Chase books which I hadn't read have less complex plots than her later books but are very enjoyable in the audio format. Perfect performances.

Another Masterpiece

I am truly sad that at some point I’m no longer going to have any more books to read by Kathleen. This book was great and I cannot wait to read more in this series, I always enjoy her silly scenarios that her characters get into and of course how everyone seems to fall in love.

Beginning okay but …

The story started off okay, but once the main characters returned to England it all started to go down quickly. I wasn't even able to finish the book.

Sometimes I can deal with one stupid character, but having both romantic interests being totally without sense ruins a story.

It was even more disappointing due to the fact that the previous book, Isabella, was rather good and I had high hopes for Basil.

The narrator was acceptable, but there always seems like the recording is too sharp or metallic sounding.

I have liked almost all of Loretta Chase's books especially the ones read by Kate Reading, but this one was not up to par with the others.

A delightful, witty, humorous story

Very enjoyable, sympathetic, humorous, in the best tradition of the picaresque novel; it winks to many of the English classics of the eighteen and nineteen century.

bad echo in the recording

Good performance, good book but the echo and background noise of the recording drove me nuts !! I wish they fixed it, it spoils a good book!!

Sweet romance

This was a lovely way to complete a craft project. I listened, enjoyed and knitted. I had some issues with words being pronounced incorrectly. I also think that the room this was recorded in should have had some soft furnishings to make it sound less like it was recorded in a bathroom.
A sweet romance, ideal for a lazy afternoon.
