About this listen
Ambrose Worthing is no gentleman. He's a proud, coldhearted rake who's determined to stay a bachelor forever. He enjoys bedding a different woman every night without the risk of falling in love. When he hears about a wager over the seduction and ruination of the daughter of his father's best friend, he knows he must intervene. Committing himself to the bet, he agrees to seduce Lady Alexandra Rockford - for her own good. He never expected the lady in question to be a beautiful, fiery creature who has passions of her own that call to his guarded heart.
Alexandra Rockford has sworn off men, her heart still broken from the false promises of a childhood sweetheart who left her to marry an heiress. When she stumbles into Ambrose outside of a country ball, she knows the rake is trouble. His smile, his touch, his forbidden kiss are all too tempting, but being with him would ruin her. Determined to enjoy herself without falling in love, Alex can't help but let her defenses down with the too charming rake. But when she discovers Ambrose is seducing her to win a bet, it will take everything Ambrose has to prove to her that he is worthy to love her. Contains mature themes.

Jasper Sutton—London’s most dedicated scoundrel—needs a wife, and he needs one quickly. He needs one yesterday, in fact. His requirements are precise: she must be capable of mothering the wild twin daughters who have unexpectedly appeared in his life, and so must possess the patience of a saint and the understanding of an angel. Better still if she is plain and has no expectation of a true marriage. He is not about to reform his ways.

Adam Faramond, Earl of Rothbury, needs to find a wife -immediately! - or his beloved grandmother swears she'll leave him penniless. But Adam, an unrepentant rake, would only renounce a life of scandalous pleasure for one woman, the woman he's lusted after - and loved - for years. It's rather unfortunate, then, that Miss Charlotte Greene, a shy but beautiful blonde of impeccable manners and breeding, would never consent to be the blushing bride of a rogue...or so he thinks. But Charlotte believes that the earl, the only man whose touch leaves her trembling with desire, would never want a woman like her.

I really enjoy this writer!
I read her other series and didn’t realize that this was the same writer until it was mentioned in the book. I enjoy the other series as well as this one. Can’t wait to start the next book. 1st book was really good but really short. I wish it went into more detail. This one was a little bit better giving two additional hours with detail.

It's surprisingly good given the premise
I read book 1 & didn't love it. This one, however, had much more depth. The subject of sexual assault is a tough subject to write about. I felt the author did this with justice and grace. The story is interesting and complicated. The characters are well developed and dimensional. The dialog felt true.
Side note:
It's interesting to think how some men's social clubs really haven't evolved in over 200 years 🤔😳😬.

Weak conflict
The conflict had already been detailed - we understood- and then we were hit over the head again with it. It didn’t make sense why the H was upset the second time.
It’s a good premise though. And I always appreciate writers who don’t use dialogue to portray the woman as one dimensional & haughty.

3.5 out of 5
I enjoyed both characters but the premise of SA was disappointing. The narrators voice wasn’t terrible but the voice she used for Ambrose brought forth images of a stodgy, pompous, old man.
