The Viscount's Revenge

The Royal Series, Book 16

De: M. C. Beaton

Narrado por: Lucy Rayner

The handsome but arrogant Lord Charles Hawksborough desperately wants to catch the infernally insolent thief who held him up at pistol point on the King's Highway and rode off with his family's inheritance and jewels.

Hawksborough tries just as desperately to not want the piquant and penniless Miss Amanda Colby when this young lady and her twin brother come to stay at his London townhouse during the height of the social season.

Hawksborough fears his desire for this slip of a girl as he is about to wed the most beautiful and more suitable Lady Mary Dane. Meanwhile, Amanda fears he will discover she is the thief before she can atone for the crime. Whatever is to happen, it is clear that neither is prepared for what takes place in this bewildering labyrinth of love and larceny!

A great story of forbidden love and redemption!

I've read a lot of the 'Royal Series' books by M.C. Beaton as a sort of pallet cleanser between more depressing/heavy reads, and I really have enjoyed them all. Being of a light-hearted, fun, and wistfully romantic nature, it provides the perfect mental vacation for me. And this title may be my favorite yet! I also loved the narrator for this story. She was perfect for it!

Ohhhh, I LOVE this one

One of my favorites from Beaton/Chesney! And I wish Lucy Raynor could narrate more of these! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

a fun one

this one was a little different from others. events were surprising. i enjoyed it.

Cute, entertaining story

This is a light listen. I really liked the main characters and the love story was sweet. As always Chesney throws in an evil villain or two to move the plot along. I liked Lucy Raynor's narration.

Original storyline and fantastic narrator

MC Beaton delivers another wonderful tale. Original and unexpected. And the narrator is also perfection! I’m hooked on Beaton.
