About this audiobook
It is whispered behind the fans of London's dowagers and in the corners of fashionable ballrooms that scandal follows willfully wild Lady Beatrix Lennox wherever she goes.
Three years before, the debutante created a sensation by being found in a distinctly compromising position. Now, the ton has branded her as unmarriageable, her family has called her a vixen, and Beatrix sees no reason not to go after what -- and who -- she wishes.
And she wants Stephen Fairfax-Lacy, the handsome Earl of Spade. Beatrix, with her brazen suggestions and irresistibly sensuous allure, couldn't be more different from the earl's ideal future bride. Yet Beatrix brings out a wildness in the earl he has tried to deny far too long. Still, he's not about to play love's game by Lady Beatrix's rules. She may be used to being on top in affairs of the heart, but that will soon change.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Nice read, but again I was equally, if not more, interested in Esme and Sebastian.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/52.5 stars rounded up. It was actually driving me batty, but I finally decided that I should just consider it a comedy of errors with a cast of nitwits, and then it was actually much easier to swallow. If there is an awful option on the table, they will choose it! Absolutely preposterous stuff. Beyond the horrible decision making and daftness of the characters it was fine though.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I really enjoy Eloisa James' books, and didn't mind this one, but I did find it a bit slow at times. I like the characters and enjoyed reading the next installment in the lives of these duchesses, but did find that I skipped a few pages here and there to get to "the good parts".
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A nice light and fast read. My only quibble with this book was that I wasn't sure who the main characters were, although it was nice to see a resolution to the stories of two of the couples, although Esme's resolution felt a little rushed at the end.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I am basically enjoying this series, but I have to agreed with others that there are probably too many characters and the whole thing is becoming a little diluted. My problem with this book is that I really couldn't figure out the relationship between Bea and Stephen. Oh, there was lust, alright, but it's not clear why and they sorta don't seem to like each other. Baffling. I hope the last one is better.
