My Rating:
I've loved Julie Garwood for some time and I had read all of her books carried by my library. When I saw this one at my eLibrary, I jumped at the opportunity to give it a listen. It didn't let me down. The characters were funny. Duncan's brothers really made me smile. Plus I love protective men. Lady Madelyne was a bit naive but I loved how she stayed true to her morals and was consistent throughout the novel. The side plots were entertaining. I really enjoyed the narrator as well. Ms. Flosnik did a great job with the different voices. While the plot doesn't stand out for historical romance standards, the story is told quite well and I loved the characters. For that, I wouldn't have missed this one for the world.
