About this listen

Your presence is requested at romantic Twill Castle for the wedding of Miss Clio Whitmore and.... and....?

After eight years of waiting for Piers Brandon, the wandering Marquess of Granville, to set a wedding date, Clio Whitmore has had enough. She's inherited a castle, scraped together some pride, and made plans to break her engagement.

Not if Rafe Brandon can help it. A ruthless prizefighter and notorious rake, Rafe is determined that Clio will marry his brother - even if he has to plan the dratted wedding himself.

So how does a hardened fighter cure a reluctant bride's cold feet?

  • He starts with flowers. Ladies can't have too many flowers. Or harps. Or cakes.
  • He lets her know she'll make a beautiful, desirable bride - and tries not to picture her as his.
  • He doesn't kiss her.
  • If he kisses her, he definitely doesn't kiss her again.
  • When all else fails, he puts her in a stunning gown and vows not to be nearby when the gown comes off.
  • And no matter what, he doesn't fall in disastrous, hopeless love with the one woman he can never call his own.

The beginning was a bit boring, all the was was planning the wedding for more than half the book, but then half way through it got a bit better, and towards the end even better.
The narrator was very good. I like Carmen Rose, she's one of my few favourite female narrators.

it was ok

The book so far is good. But I HATE the narration, the cadence, it’s so monotonous! I’ll just stick to the book, thanks!

Hard pass on the narration

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
The Hero is a younger son of an Earl turn pugilist. Who despite his upbringing he seem to have forgotten the luxury of his birth. He didn't feel he was worthy of his birth, so turn his back on it.
The Heroine has waited eight years to marry his brother. She has now inherited a Castle, so wish to have an independent life. Throw in a lot of ridiculous secondary characters and that is the story. Definitely not based in reality. If you like fairy tales, then this is not bad.

Parallel universe

The story was very slow moving and repetitive. Other Tessa Dare books I've read are much better in plot.

The plot sounded promising and I was so much looking forward to it -
Especially as I found that the book is well narrated….

Unfortunately I was quickly bored as I found the author more interested in the details what happens in the outhouse or bedroom than the storyline-
Also I found the book in itself repetitive…

I listened from start to finish - but won’t bother with any further reading in this series ..
