Unclaimed

De: Courtney Milan

Narrado por: Polly Lee

Her only hope for survival….

Handsome, wealthy, and respected, Sir Mark Turner is the most sought-after bachelor in all of London—and he's known far and wide for his irreproachable character. But behind his virtuous reputation lies a passionate nature he keeps carefully in check… until he meets the beautiful Jessica Farleigh, the woman he’s waited for all his life.

But Jessica is a courtesan, not the genteel lady Sir Mark believes. Desperate to be free of a life she despises, she seizes her chance when Mark's enemies make her an offer she can’t refuse: seduce Mark and tarnish his good name, and a princely sum will be hers. Yet as she comes to know the man she’s sworn to destroy, Jessica will be forced to choose between the future she needs… and the love she knows is impossible.

Ah the power of love...

A nice love story about how love redeems you, changes you and ultimately conquers any obstacle. It slowly develops a relationship out of friendship and the sexual tension was Amazing! For being a courtesan story it was quite vanilla! I enjoyed the story a lot specially the conclusion.

Narration: I feel that the only problem in this story was the narrator. Polly Lee sounded too old, on the verge of crying several times and her male characters sounded badly. I will avoid books narrated by her in the future.

Lovely

Quite Enjoyable!

This was my first Courtney Milan novel, and I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would. I like historical romances, but I just didn't know what to expect from this author. Like all genres, there's a mixture of offerings out there. And all are not to my liking. But this story was believable, romantic without scenes that make me roll my eyes while I think "As if," and sexual, though not erotic--meaning the, maybe, 2.5 or 3 complete sex scenes were very tamed. Though, I should add, I have no problem with samplings from the erotic genre as well. I don't want to leave the wrong impression. Continuing, some of the sex scenes were alluded to without giving the full picture, but it didn't detract from the story at all, but added to it appropriately. I absolutely loved the heroes full support of the heroine and how she came into her own. I loved the view of women in relation to men's sexuality and women not being too blame. As a result of this book, I'm going to read Ash's story. And I look forward to the other brother's story too. I actually wanted that one first, but it's not available. So I wait with baited breath! This book is well worth the expense IMO.

A tender story of love and friendship

What made the experience of listening to Unclaimed the most enjoyable?

when a book makes me cry, I know it was a GREAT story, I cried and it felt wonderful and it's a great romance story. good job

Who was your favorite character and why?

Jessica- I can relate to her to some point. To fight and make it- and at the end to find love and someone to love you JUST THE WAY we are.

Have you listened to any of Polly Lee’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I think it's the narrator she did a great job. very emotional and could tell the differance in all the characters

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, even took it to bed, and then in the morning went back and relistened to it again.
