About this listen
Treat yourself to a delightful Regency romance with a fairy-tale twist: "Grace Burrowes is terrific!" (Julia Quinn, author of the Bridgerton series).
Duncan Wentworth once tried his hand at rescuing a damsel in distress long ago, and he's vowed he'll never make that mistake again. Yet when he comes across a stranger in the poacher-infested woods of his estate, decency compels him to offer the lady aid. Matilda is whip-smart, she can read Duncan's horrible penmanship, and when she wears his reading glasses all Duncan can think about is naughty Latin poetry.
Widowed duchess Matilda Wakefield can't entrust her secrets to Duncan without embroiling him in the problems that sent her fleeing from London, but neither can she ignore a man who's honorable, a brilliant chess player, and maddeningly kissable. She needs to stay one step ahead of the enemies pursuing her, and falling into Duncan's arms is a distraction she can't afford—or they'll both pay the price.

Love thy neighbor, 'tis said. A fine idea, except when the neighbor in question is Lord Holden. Lady Helen Tiernay has complained frequently about his treatment of his people. Too frequently perhaps, for the king intends to curb their constant bickering by ordering them to wed. Helen can't refuse a royal decree, but she'll do everything possible to drive away her devilishly attractive husband-to-be.

A beautifully written story where both the hero and heroine are meant to be together. The narrator James Langton did an exceptional read.

The story was excellent, I enjoyed it immensely & listened every moment I could, on my Kindle App. Thank you to all who brought this story and the performance to be. Many thanks especially to the talented author, Grace Burrowes. (I rarely ever have read a romance novel because of the callowness of the love scenes. Those in this book were remarkably refined though, and only enhanced the story.)
Delightfully written & performed

I stayed awake until 3am to finish listening. My audible library contains over 1000 very good books. This book could be placed in the top 50 . I enjoyed the authors story line and the people who filled it.
Good Romance with a good reader

What was a puzzle was why or how this was the second book in this series. We start the series squarely in London, the Duke returns home to three vivid and dynamic siblings and this slightly aloof cousin. The last thing I expected was to have book 2 be about the cousin and be set in the countryside. I had to go back a couple times to make sure this book (and the next one) were in the proper sequence and I hadn't missed anything.
Unexpected for second series, but sweet story
