Ridiculous. But fun.

I was on the verge of stopping this and returning the book several times.
It's frankly ridiculous.
But then, it's also funny. And hot.
But so stupid.
But I finished it.
So, I dunno.
Narrator does a great job.
Don't make it the first of their books that you read, but if you've binged all the rest of their stuff, go for it.
So, so dumb.

I love this story!

This is an audiobook I return to again and again. If you love a good Regency romance and enjoy Jane Austen, then this book is for you. The best way I can think to describe is Northanger Abbey on steroids with some MM spice thrown in. Wonderful!

Ridiculous fun

A madcap romp through the English countryside with some memorable characters. Dukes who become less duke-ish die to love are a lot of fun.

Hilarious, reminiscent of Wilde

Do not read this if you're looking for a realistically convincing period drama. This is very much not it. It's absurd, and utterly delightful.

It has distinct tones of The Importance of Being Earnest (my favourite play), with the characters and the convoluted plots being simultaneously ridiculous and entrancing.

I laughed out loud more times during this than any other audiobook.

When I was still trying to take it seriously at the beginning (I had not known what to expect), I wasn't keen on the voice used for Bonny, which seemed rather too silly. However, as soon as I got into the spirit of it, and let myself enjoy the farce, everything was perfect.

A gloriously light and uplifting read.

Adorable

What an adorably Romantic Story! a perfect little Romcom with some unexpectedly steamy scenes.
I highly recommend it!

Loved and hated this one

Everyone here is queer (almost). The story is hilarious in a preposterous and absurd kind of way. Valentine is a reserved, extremely taciturn and socially awkward aristocrat who, up to this point, lived in complete ignorance of his own sexuality and, in fact acted as an as£xual being (he appears to be in the spectrum). Bonny is a dramatic, over the top, highly in touch with his own s£xuality Queen 👑. Their relationship starts quite tumultuous but develops beautifully, eventually. This is a slow burn and the spicy scenes, though far and rare, were deliciously done, and I savored them.
Many parts of this story were wonderfully written and it was easy to fall in love with some of it, but I couldn't get past the fact that Valentine was abused and diminished throughout the book for trying to do the right thing, in a way he thought would be best for all involved despite his own reservations and dislike for the arrangement made by his father. I absolutely detested his wife to be, she was a spoiled, irrational, manipulative, selfish brat that terrorized him during the entire story and suffered no consequences for her heinous actions. That and the fact that everyone just protected her is the reason I took away 2 stars. Poor Valentine was shunned for being reserved and socially awkward, I couldn't stand his treatment.
This was Free on ku with audio included and the narration was superbly done. Not only the voices and the interpretation, but also how each character was portrait and the difference between dialogue and the rest of the narration too.

frivolous and profound

beautifully written, hilarious with no let up to the pace, I came to this via KJ Charles and didn't expect a similar quality, so was pleasantly surprised. I really recommend you try this as the humour (may appeal more to Brits than yanks) is contagious
I'm recovering from a cancer op and was giggling throughout. Thanks to the author for such unexpected healing and joy.
please make more available either on sale or free and I'll be able to explore this author.
