The Last Hellion

Scoundrels, Book 4

De: Loretta Chase

Narrado por: Kate Reading

The Duke of Ainswood, Vere Mallory - the last of the infamous Mallory hellions - lives a charmed life: he's rich, titled, and exceedingly handsome. And he's seemingly bent on throwing it all away in his reckless race toward self-destruction, until a devastatingly beautiful blonde amazon literally knocks him off his feet.

Lydia Grenville has devoted herself to protecting London's less fortunate. She has no patience for dissolute aristocrats and would like nothing more than to get his big, strong, handsome carcass out of her path so she can continue her work. But Ainswood could never resist a challenge - especially in female form - or trouble, which seems to follow Lydia like a stray puppy. When real trouble appears it's all or nothing for the duke and his annoyingly headstrong female!

I love this series!

This is one of the best Authors I have ever found. This whole Series is amazing! This is a GREAT finale to end it. This story has an amazingly strong willed woman who protects and has her own ideas of what she we wants in life. No matter what.

"I want a love that feels like a dream"

A VERY well written book and very engaging storyline. Characters are very well developed and the story is well thought out. I liked everything about it. The only reason I gave it a 4 star is because as good as the book was it was just not what I give a 5 star for. I give 5 stars to the ones I spend every minute of my life I can spare listening to. I even cut from sleep to know what happens next. This however was an excellent book.

riveting characters and a thoroughly engaging plot

Chase has excelled another story with an intense plot and characters that you want to get to know deeply. you could read it as a stand-alone but why would you when her characters maintain satisfying lives and deserve to be carried from book to book. Kate Reading does a delicious job narrating the book, giving each character a voice of their own. I will definitely read it again.

Fun!

I’m really enjoying the banter and bickering between the two main characters and I adore the dog, Susan! I definitely recommend this author and narrator!

Loretta Chase is brilliant

This is almost worthy of 5 stars. It was a great story. Lydia is a wonderful heroine. I loved her. And, even though the Duke was a jerk in the preceding book, he turned out to be quite a great character, too. I want to know more about Elizabeth and Emily now.

The story moved along fine until toward the end. It may just have been me but it seemed to slow down after what could have been the HEA moment. It picked up again in a bit so it wasn't a horrible thing. The narration by Kate Reading was her usual good job with some pronunciation quirks that were a bit distracting.

But Loretta Chase's writing style is brilliant and her dialogue is second to none. I loved this series.
