The Governess

Wicked Wallflowers, Book 3

De: Christi Caldwell

Narrado por: Tim Campbell

Rivalry, romance, and scandal run hot in this Wicked Wallflowers novel from USA Today bestselling author Christi Caldwell.

Regina (Reggie) Spark has loved Broderick Killoran, the resourceful and protective proprietor of the Devil’s Den, ever since he saved her from the streets and made her his right hand at the notorious gaming hell. For just as long, Reggie has never admitted her true feelings for him. Nor has she revealed her spirited ambitions - to buck convention and expectations and open a music hall.

While Broderick built his gaming empire with ruthless cunning, his loyalty to his employees is boundless. So when he learns of Reggie’s plan to leave his side and take charge of her own future, the betrayal cuts Broderick to the core. He responds as he would to any business rival…with swift retribution.

Instead of wilting, the savvy Reggie rebounds with a fury that shocks Broderick and stirs a desire he’s been holding in reserve for only ladies of nobility. But as their seductive battle of wills ignites under the harsh spotlight of the London Season, secrets are exposed as well - ones that could be ruinous in decent society but invaluable for the heart.

Another Gem from Christi Caldwell

I just finished this book, as I wipe a tear from my eye. The characters come alive on the page; in this case, listening to the voice of Tim Campbell, who brings the characters to life. Reggie and Broderick indeed need their own story. And it doesn’t disappoint!

Another winner from Christi Caldwell

I really like Christi Caldwell and her narrator, Tim Campbell. The Wicked Wallflowers follows The Sinful Brides in that it takes place in another Gaming Hell in "The Dials" of London. These characters are interesting and this entire 'world' of English nobility vs. the 'world' of the lower class "Hell" owners and their women is fascinating...plus, who doesn't love some hot romance!! Christi is judicious with her sexy interludes. This book is no different from many of her Historical Romances. It's all about the people and their stories. Tim Campbell has a glorious voice, just made to convey the 'sexy-rake' vibe. I am already thirsty for the next installment of this series...due May 7th!!...My calendar is already marked.

Unexpected

What an unexpected story. Broderick and Miss Steele, their story is so embroiled with past pain, misunderstandings and havoc you wonder how it will ever work out. Steven is definitely a little termagant.

SPOILER? I guess Gertrude’s book will be next, I hope

Great story

Reggie is one amazingly strong sexy woman. Broderick is one stubborn strong alpha man. Could not wait to see where the story went. Great ending.

Unique and well written. Satisfying read and ending.

This is a well paced, character driven story with plenty of action, well fleshed-out relationships and bad bad guys.
