About this listen

Stephanie Laurens authors USA Today best-selling historical romances such as A Rake's Vow and Devil's Bride. Lauren's Scandal's Bride is the hot and exciting third novel in her riveting Bar Cynster series.

Cynster men are invariably handsome rogues, and Catriona Hennessy, Scottish Lady of the Vale is well aware of their reputation. She is aghast when it is decreed by her guardian that she must marry the scandalous Richard Cynster within one week's time. Like her mother before her, Catriona is a beautiful, independent woman who needs no man to rule over her or the Vale. But what she does need is an heir--will the charming Richard Cynster be willing to give her what she wants? Facing unavoidable marriage, Richard savors the challenge of taming spirited Catriona. Simon Prebble's masterful narration of Laurens' tale will leave listeners feeling exhilarated.

The Best In The Series So Far!

I really enjoyed this tale, the mystery not as open as in the previous ones, therefore not as frustrating. However, as per the others, practically every other chapter was a love scene which, eventually gets tedious and doesn’t really explain how the characters get to know each other mentally, intellectually or to discuss domestic or business matters?

Still… it was a very enjoyable read. Onto the next cousin.

A mystical story.

Another typical Cynster story with the strutting and swaggering male. A strong lady, like all the other stories. It had a believable story with plenty of carnal interludes, however they didn't overpower the story. A great improvement over the last book. It is a pity that the author believes that her books will only sell, if they are drowned in carnal saturation.

My favourite book from Stephanie Laurens

What made the experience of listening to Scandal's Bride the most enjoyable?

Listening to the story of which I have read on my kindle, means I can relax, close my eyes and I'm transported back to Scotland,

What was one of the most memorable moments of Scandal's Bride?

I love when Scandal is poisoned and the family come, the interaction with the every one in the household, lovely detail of their lives.

What about Simon Prebble’s performance did you like?

I can listen to Simon Prebble all day, I have several talking books with him narrating, the inflection of his voice, he is a master at narration

If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

scandal the story begins

Rather far fetched

In a 14 hour novel, lengthy descriptions of intimate encounters between main characters took up nearly half.
The narrator’s dramatic rises in voice during such descriptions made it even harder to listen to.
It was a good idea to try and veer outside of London for Richard Cynster’s story but it would have been nice to make it believable
