The Study of a Rake: A Steamy Historical Regency Novella

The Beautiful Barringtons

De: Kathleen Ayers

Narrado por: Stevie Zimmerman

The widowed Duke of Averell is trying to be a better man...

But when he spies a young woman, reading the Iliad beneath a tree, no less, Marcus forgets all his good intentions. Miss Weatherly is outspoken, intelligent, and enamored with the ancient Greeks. When she brazenly offers to show him the constellations later that night, Marcus readily agrees.

Unfortunately, Miss Weatherly is not the woman Marcus has come to Halloway Park to offer for.

Loved!

So wonderful to get a better understanding of the dynamics between Marcus and Amanda at the start of their relationship after having met them as older adults in the first book.

story

i enjoyed the very unusual story alot which was short and performed well. yes I enjoyed the time spent with these people.

A Rare Treat

I’ve read all of Ayers’ books and enjoyed each one. It was so rewarding to find how the Barringtons’ story started. Stevie Zimmerman alway does a stellar performance. Hope she narrates her other books because Ayers has assured me Audibles on in production There goes the bank account. Can’t wait for Ayers’ new Audibles. Oh this is a story of how the Duke found his Duchess reading Homer in the shade of an old oak tree. Lovely

Very disappointing

The dukes arrogance was so appalling that the supposedly happy ending was unbelievable. Amanda’s character bordered on simpleminded as well as a being so desperate she acted like a complete slut. In this way they were meant for each other I suppose, but a satisfying romance it did not make.
