About this listen

He was her target. She was his diversion. Falling in love was never something they wanted.

As a con woman who has spent her entire life fending for herself on the streets of London, Rose Wakefield knows how to scam a gentleman out of his money without ever getting caught. That's until she knocks on the wrong earl's door and is faced with Carver Ashburn Earl of Kensworth and not the notorious rake she thinks she is approaching.

Carver is a good man, but even a good man will not pass up an opportunity to escape his grief. What better way to avoid his feelings than to play into a con woman's ruse and offer to marry her?

Things only grow more complicated when Carver sweeps Rose off to his family estate and circumstances force them both into continuing the ruse. Carver needs to protect his family, and Rose needs to protect herself - and her heart.

With so much set against them, will Rose and Carver have a chance at love and freedom? Or is the possibility of more heartache not worth the risk?

What listeners say about To Con a Gentleman

Highly rated for:

The Audiobook Presents An Engaging Storyline With Interesting Characters And A Unique Plot, Often Praised For Its Witty Humor And Clean Romance. However, Some Listeners Found The Story Unrealistic For The Regency Period It Is Set In, With Repetitive Narration, Slow Pacing At Times, And A Lack Of Depth Due To Excessive Explanations. The Themes Explored Include Love And Relationships, Regency Era Romance, Grief And Loss, Family Bonds, And Deception Through Conning. Overall, It Offers A Lighthearted And Enjoyable Romantic Tale, Though Some Aspects Of The Storytelling Could Have Been Improved.

So cute!!

A mix between downtown abbey and bridgerton! The performance is great, but very slow for some reason. Not written as well as Jane Austen to make it a true classic, but an exceptional story

Too farfetched

It is a romance, so there is most likely a happy ending coming. The characters are likeable and good- hearted, even though one is a deceptive thief. The narrator is good, too, But the story is very pat and too unrealistic for the era in which it is set.

Not an everyday love story

I liked this audio book because it was interesting and not the typical love story.

Great characters and story!

Finally a romance without so much sex! She developed characters and storyline and not relying on sex to move the story along. Definitely will be reading more!

Very enjoyable book

I very much enjoyed this book. Funny in places!!!! Even though it was a bit predictable, I still listened in a day and a half. I probably would have listened to the book at one time but life gets in the way. The narrator was a little too passive but I enjoyed the story enough to tolerate her. Thumbs up for sure and I will be looking for more books by this author.
