About this listen

WINNER OF THE 2018 AUDIE AWARD FOR BEST ROMANCE

‘Prepare to Fall in Love’ Julia Quinn, author of Bridgerton

‘I absolutely loved it; her style is so warm and funny.’ Nicola Cornick

–

Perfect for fans of:

Marriage of convenience

Rags to riches

High society

–

‘I am a Duke. I’m not asking you to marry me. I am offering to marry you. It’s a different thing entirely.’

When the Duke of Ashbury returns from war scarred, he realises he needs an heir – which means he needs a wife! When Emma Gladstone, a vicar's daughter turned seamstress visits wearing a wedding dress, he decides on the spot that she'll do.

His terms are simple:

- They will be husband and wife by night only.

- No lights, no kissing.

- No questions about his battle scars.

- Last, and most importantly… Once she's pregnant with his heir, they need never share a bed again.

But Emma is no pushover. She has secrets and some rules of her own:

- They will have dinner together every evening.

- With conversation.

- And teasing.

- Last, and most importantly… Once she's seen the man beneath the scars, he can't stop her from falling in love…

I laughed out loud this was excellent, narration made it so much better her voice, tones and verbal sparing really put across sarcasm and wit in the book.

Story was pleasant, I enjoyed the humour and the narrator read the story well. Unfortunately too much sex and not enough plot and depth to the story. An easy listen

Good narration

I love this story, the humour is joyous and the characters true. Mary-Jane Wells brings my favourite Tessa Dare book ever to life. Thank you 💖
