About this listen
When an impromptu kiss captures the imagination, either a spark will ignite or family interference will snuff the match.
Charlotte Darrington adores being adored by the men in her circle. She’s in London at the request of her mother, and though her parent wants her to find an eligible gentleman and start a family, Charlotte delays. In her heart of hearts, she wants a man who can hold his own and won’t be cowed.
Nathan Brigham, Marquess of Ravenhurst, is annoyed with the interfering redhead leading his nephew into the evergreen maze. When he would have delivered a dressing down, she stops his words with a kiss. No matter that he finds her attractive and a welcome distraction from his darkly brooding life, he refuses to succumb to Charlotte’s charms. Above everything, he won’t become the savage man his father was.
Once they return to London from a house party at his country estate, the two can’t avoid each other. Stolen kisses and heated glances in shadowy halls as well as a questionable visit to White’s draw them closer. He can’t forget the demons from his past while her persistence to hear a declaration begs the question: To bed or to wed?

Story
He's everything she didn't know she wanted. She's everything he thought he could never have. The last thing I expect when I walk into The Hawkeye Club is to fall head over heels in lust. It’s supposed to be a rescue mission. I have to get my baby sister off the pole, into some clothes, and out of the grasp of the pussy peddler who somehow manipulated her into stripping. But the moment I see Savage Hawke and verbally spar with him, my ability to remain rational flies out the window and my libido takes center stage.

Story
A club member’s betrayal killed those that I loved, and revenge is the only justice you serve because that’s all you have left. You keep fighting and keep breathing, even when you’re empty of any soul. I had to fight and kill to earn the president patch of the Berzerkers MC. We rule our criminal empire of underground fighting. Money and blood are all that’s important to me now. The brazen, dark-haired spitfire named Izzy made a stupid choice to steal from my club, and now, I’m obligated to deal out her punishment and decide her fate.

Story
American heiress August Crenshaw has aspirations. But unlike her peers, it isn't some stuffy British lord she wants wrapped around her finger - it's Crenshaw Iron Works, the family business. When it's clear that August's outrageously progressive ways render her unsuitable for a respectable match, her parents offer up her younger sister to the highest entitled bidder instead. This simply will not do. August refuses to leave her sister to the mercy of a loveless marriage.

Story
A beautiful, young American girl wound up stranded far from home on my doorstep. When she begged me to stay, I did what a good priest would do, and I said yes. But a good priest wouldn’t spend his days thinking about the fullness of her ruby red lips or feel the sting of envy with the way she draws men to her like flies to honey. A good priest would have stopped things before that first touch. And he certainly wouldn’t have given into temptation so easily, but when Cadence Thorn walked in, she brought me to my knees.

Lord Nathaniel Harte, the disagreeable duke of Beswick, spends his days smashing porcelain, antagonizing his servants, and snarling at anyone who gets too close. With a ruined face like his, it's hard to like much about the world - especially smart-mouthed harpies (with lips better suited to kissing than speaking) who brave his castle with indecent proposals. But Lady Astrid Everleigh will stop at nothing to see her younger sister safe from a notorious scoundrel, even if it means offering herself up on a silver platter to the forbidding Beast of Beswick himself.

fight for love
Both main characters had to fight their families to get their hea which I found reprehensible. Back off selfish families. I enjoyed both main characters and rooted for them. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator was good.

This was a wonderful story of love. A broken man that was treated bad by his own sister and a virgin. Daniella Rose did a splendid job of narrating it. She had a great voice for the characters.

Loved the narration
Daniella Rose did an excellent job as the narrator of this book. Excellent accent, distinct voices for each character and added the right emotions to the story. Definitively a narrator I will look for in the future.
The story was interesting and the romance slow burning. I felt like I wanted more in the end. It could have been a bit longer. I enjoyed the character development. You could feel the difference in both our hero and heroine by the end of the book. This historical romance will appeal to people that want stories with little to no sex descriptions. Recommended!

Old fashion Tale
I love how old fashion this story is. From the gowns to the courting to the way a woman is seen in the public eye. She has a certain way she must behave and carry herself or her name could be tarnished and it ruins her chances of marrying. And that's all that matters, is being married properly. In this story, these two main characters want to actually marry for love (well he figures out eventually that he does when he realizes that he's fallen in love with her)
will his temper keep him from her? Will the rumors keep her from him? sorry, I'm not going to spoil it for anyone, you have to listen for yourself.
The narrator did a great job on this one, keeping each character able to be identifiable. I look forward to more of her work.

Wonderful love story.
I asked to receive this free review Audible book and wrote this unbiased review. This is a slow burn romance with a brief sexual scene at the end. This story has insightful character and plot development. It is so much fun to see Charlotte finally find a man that she has been looking for who knows how to handle her. It is heartwarming to watch Nathan come to the point where he can lay to rest some of the demons that haunt him from his painful past. I was cheering these two on from the beginning. There were several characters that I wanted to kick out of town. The narrator does an outstanding job of portraying the emotions and personalities of these characters. She helps the listener feel what the characters are experiencing. I highly recommend this Audible book.

Sweetly Heated Regency Romance
Take one cranky, brooding, Marquess with a chip on his shoulders, add one spunky, outspoken heroine, mix well and stand back ... way back, because sparks are going to fly! The ride isn’t smooth for these two, and you may want to toss a few family members out of the coach, but believe me, you will root for their happy ending. The story is tastefully written with a fantastic bite and well very narrated. Pop on your headphones and enjoy the ride!

Beautiful Historical Romance!
To Bed or to Wed is the first book in the Darrington Family Series, a Historical Romance. Nathan and Charlotte's story is beautifully written, and heartwarming. The characters are great. I love Charlotte's determination. She is lovely and strong. Her brother is a great supporting character. Nathan is handsome. They are perfect together, and they share a strong chemistry. This is a beautiful Historical Romance. Daniella Rose has a beautiful voice. She did a great job with the narration. I enjoyed it. I would love to listen to Marriage Minded Lord, the first book in the series.
