About this listen

With a family legacy tainted by murder and madness, Phineas Brand, the Earl of Holstoke, is having a devil of a time securing a proper wife - or even an improper one. Society misses faint at the sight of him. Matchmaking mamas scurry to avoid him. Only one woman is bold enough to keep drawing near, and she's more scandalous than he is.

Lady Eugenia Huxley knows all about running aground in the marriage mart, thanks to a scandal involving a footman and too much drink. No matter. She'll gladly pursue millinery over matrimony. But when her sister's spurned suitor returns to London in search of a wife, she can't resist offering him a bit of courtship advice, even if the chilly, brilliant, honorable Lord Holstoke does give her shivers - heated, head-to-toe shivers that are anything but fearful.

After a series of vicious murders brings suspicion to Holstoke's door, Eugenia risks everything to be his alibi. The only rational remedy is to marry the minx before she generates another scandal. Yet, the dangers don't end at the altar. A poisonous enemy coils ever closer, threatening the woman who awakens his soul. How far will he go to protect her? That may be the greatest danger of all.

Contains mature themes.

The Heroine, is a "passive aggressive " bully.

She is ruined because of her liking for the lower classes. The story is so ludicrous, it is in a parallel universe of the time, with a poisoner thrown in for interest. Everyone has to bow to her agenda, she has no respect for others wishes, bludgeons people to do as she wants. She is a "passive aggressive" bully, the poor hero is forced into marriage with her, thanks to her following her own agenda. Despite people being poisoned and dying around her, she is only concerned about what she is suffering. I felt sorry for all those who had to live with her, I could feel no sympathy for her. Having forced her way into the hero's life, she goes at his life and that of her sister-in-law, like a "bull in a china shop". Personally if someone had nagged me about hats for so long I would have thrown her out of the carriage. In true life a man of his character and intelligence would have no time for such a women. She is a "nasty piece of work" and totally ruins the rest of the plot. Sex as usual is important, the more explicit the more books sold.
