About this listen

As the eldest son of the Duke of Langford, Nathaniel Gresham sees his arranged marriage to Lady Violet Devere as just another obligation to fulfil – highly suitable, if unexciting. But as Violet sets out to transform herself from dowdy wallflower to dazzling young duchess-to-be, proper Nathaniel sets out to prove he's a match for his new bride's vivacity and daring.

Oppressed by her family all her life – especially her domineering and horrible grandmother – Lady Violet can't wait to enjoy the freedom of being a married woman. But then Violet learns her family's sordid secret, and she's faced with an impossible choice – does she tell Nathaniel and risk losing him or does she hide it and live a lie?

Thoroughly enjoyable

A couple of mawkish moments but otherwise well written with well developed characters and a decent plot. Good narration too.

Too much drama

The story was too dramatic and there was not enough romance for me. Also most of the characters seemed horrid. The ending was too abrupt and the only good thing was that I didn’t have to listen anymore.

Wonderful story!!!

Lovely story of a woman who finds her independence in an era when a young woman was “married off” without guidance!!!

The whole novel is a fascinating and delightful story with a great twist 👍

Incredibly dull

Although the narration was excellent I found the actual story incredibly slow and dull, especially the details of the circle race.

awful narration

too slow narration in polite accent killed all drama and tension. I stopped half way as it was so irritating. Pity, as story was intriguing.
