About this listen

A heartless villain....
Lady Daphne Fairchild braves the journey from London to the wilds of Scotland alone with one purpose in mind: confront the man who purposely and methodically set out to ruin the men of her family. But what he demands in exchange for answers will thrust Daphne into a world of mystery, hatred, and lust.

An indecent proposal....
Thirty days and nights in the bed of the Earl of Hartmoor...this is the price she must pay to learn the truth of the dark lord’s vendetta against her family. Yet, when she accepts the offer, Daphne never expects to find that nothing is what she thought it was, and the truth proves far harder to stomach than she ever imagined.

A cruel desire that holds her captive....
Even as he uses her to exact his final revenge against her family, Daphne cannot deny the way her body reacts to his touch, the way her soul seems to become more intertwined with his by the day. Despite the ruin he has made of her life, she cannot escape that the threads of deceit, desire, and pain have tied them together irrevocably. With her fate now in his hands, she is uncertain whether he will turn out to be the hero who steals her heart, or the villain who destroys her soul.

The relationship is based on revenge. anger and a desire to debase. The heroine enjoys this enormously. I don't relate to it but the story is well told even though it is just an excuse for violent sex. The narration is good.

This story has many ups and downs and it was difficult to like the main characters, but as the story unfolded you realise how strong, his character is. I really got into it by the end.

I have read the book and this was my review for that:- This is a spectacular story and highly recommended. Very early on one is hooked. This is a hot and steamy tale, but with a very strong narrative- that is to say not just a lot of random encounters.
Lady Daphne’s family has been destroyed and ruined in the eyes of the Ton by The Earl of Hartmoor (Adam). Daphne travels to his castle in Scotland to discover the reasons for the man’s hatred and need for vengeance. The narrative carefully leads us through this mystery. The characters are carefully drawn and believable.

The narrator is really good - he delivers the story superbly.

I love all of Victoria Vale’s book - she has a wonderful style and weaves a good story.

Highly recommended Steamy Regency Tale

Loved this book.

I think the header says it all. I found the storyline really boring but the *excercises* between were good. Variety of descriptive language really narrow and same things repeated over and over again.

Poor storyline, excellent spicy

Well done Victoria Vale!

Loved it!

I bought this on a whim and can honestly I actually enjoyed it.

It is a steamy one so headphones are a good option. I tend to read some erotic romance novels from time to time, but this one has been the best one I've read in a while.

Just purchased the dove so I cant wait to get started on that. I may end up buying a few more from this author

Surprisingly Brilliant!
