Publisher's summary

Gillie Trewlove knows what a stranger’s kindness can mean, having been abandoned on a doorstep as a baby and raised by the woman who found her there. So, when suddenly faced with a soul in need at her door - or the alleyway by her tavern - Gillie doesn’t hesitate. But he’s no infant. He’s a grievously injured, distractingly handsome gentleman who doesn’t belong in Whitechapel, much less recuperating in Gillie’s bed....

Being left at the altar is humiliating; being rescued from thugs by a woman - albeit a brave and beautiful one - is the pièce de résistance to the duke of Thornley’s extraordinarily bad day. After nursing him back from the brink, Gillie agrees to help him comb London’s darker corners for his wayward bride. But every moment together is edged with desire and has Thorne rethinking his choice of wife. Yet Gillie knows the aristocracy would never accept a duchess born in sin. Thorne, however, is determined to prove to her that no obstacle is insurmountable when a duke loves a woman.

Wonderful

This has taken its place among my favorite romance novels. The characters are beautifully written and come to life in these pages. The hero and heroine are both human and charming. No ridiculous conflicts, no misunderstandings that trail on for 100 pages... just a sweet story of two people from different worlds that gradually fall in love.

Very Slow

It's very repetitive. No one is getting it on and the hero is nice. Yawn.

Good story

Kate Reading is terrific. Story was interesting and sweet. Lots of sexual tension but things didn't get heated up until about chapter 18. Great ending. I do highly recommend.

Really enjoyed this book...it kept me listening.

Enjoyed the story although narration average because of immitation of male voices but story is solid and I liked the English accent which was fitting

Sweet love story

I really liked the book and everything was tied together neatly except for one detail... Robin.
I look forward to the rest of the series.

Narrator Ruins the Story

How can anyone listen to this narrator's voice and attempted accent and enjoy this story. I am a huge fan of Lorraine Heath, but this is the second time I've not been able to enjoy the story because of the narrator's voice. This one, as in The Viscount and the Vixen, is too masculine, so when she is speaking the woman's part it's impossible to listen and engross yourself in the what the character is saying. In this audible the narrator not only has a very masculine voice but pronounces her words for the female lead with a gutter slang yet the female is suppose to be one who has says improving her speech helps her deal with the world. How can you feel any affection with a person who sounds like she works on the docks. Ms. Heath, please review your narrators before offering your wonderful books to your audible listeners.

Didn’t want it to end

Second book into a series that’s quickly become a new favorite. The writing style is perfection. You can practically feel the electricity between the couples with steamy scenes so hawt hawt hawt and beautifully done. The relationship build has become my favorite part of her books. Looking forward to the next in my queue.

Beautiful

This was such a beautiful love story. I couldn't get enough. I would get so frustrated when I was interrupted while listening. it wasn't the usual love story but it was amazing. I love that she was so strong and she could hold her own. I especially liked that she stood up to her mother-in-law. Beautiful story.
