Publisher's summary

When shy and secluded author Sara Fielding ventures from her country cottage to research a novel, she inadvertently witnesses a crime in progress - and manages to save the life of the most dangerous man in London.

Derek Craven is a powerful and near-legendary gambling club owner who was born a bastard and raised in the streets. His reputation is unsavory, his scruples nonexistent. But Sara senses that beneath Derek's cynical exterior, he is capable of a love more passionate than her deepest fantasies.

Aware that he is the last man that an innocent young woman should ever want, Derek is determined to protect Sara from himself, no matter what it takes. But in a world where secrets lurk behind every shadow, he is the only man who can keep her safe. And as Derek and Sara surrender to an attraction too powerful to deny, a peril surfaces from his dark past to threaten their happiness...and perhaps even their lives.

Together they will discover if love is enough to make dreams come true.

Excellent series

I have a deep love for all of Lisa Kleypas books and this is definitely favorite of mine. I love the first book in the series a little bit more but that’s because Lily and Alex are so much fun. I love that they play a decent role in this book too.

Derek is a man who has never known love so he’s spent his life playing hard to protect himself. Sara is sweet and independent and sees his soul from the beginning. Their love is true and Lisa does am amazing job of slowly getting Derek to give on to his emotions and experience love for the first time in his life.

Rosalyn Landor is so amazing that you forget you are listening to one narrator and not a bunch of different characters. She’s that good or I should say magnificent!

another beautiful love story

I read some of these reviews and I think we must be talking about different stories. These are beautiful perfectly flawed people finding love. The sex scenes are done well, not gaudy in any way, but romantic and show the passion they feel for each other. Think some of you should get a subscription purely thru Harlequin or Hallmark. Everyone has different tastes. but I thought this was a great series and I will archive to listen again. I have come to really enjoy this author's style of writing and like the narrator. Enjoy!

Wonderful Series!

I enjoy all of Lisa’s Kleypas Regency Novels. Rosa Landor is another favorite narrator.
Great 2 books!

As good as I remember

Read this years ago and decided to buy the audiobook and it's even better. Voice performance was great. her male voices were excellent. And of course Derek has always has my heart.

Better than the first in the series

Good to see the redemption of Derek Craven in this volume. A good read, worth a credit.

Wonderful love story

Narrator was great, loved the way these characters are tied with the Wall flowers series.

Really good

Mixing of old and new. Could not put it down. Looking forward to next book

Great listening

i truly loved this story. excellent reader as well as story line. recommend author for more.

Rosalyn Landor ruins good books

This has been one on my favorite LK books. So I was excited when there was finally a audiobook. The story is ruined by the narrator. I try not to listen to books narrated by Rosalyn Landon. She can’t do male voices at all. She always make them sound like an old stupid man. She especially bad with Scottish and English voices. I highly recommend the book but it’s I say avoid it listening to it but read in it.

Loved it!!!

Lisa Kleypas and narrator Rosalyn Landor are a perfect team! Stellar writing and narration that makes the story pop. Both books in this series are well worth the listen. I'd give each more than 5 stars.
