Summary

With over 25 million books in print, best-selling author Amanda Quick is a favorite of readers who relish historical romances. In her works, including Mistress, Mischief, and Affair, Amanda Quick offers delicious romantic thrillers set in the opulent world of Regency-era London.

The widow Madeline Deveridge is both admired and feared by high society. Devastatingly beautiful, she is rumored to have killed her wealthy husband. Artemis Hunt is a handsome gentleman who is also a master of secret arts. His concentration on his own affairs is shattered, however, when Madeline demands his help one fog-shrouded night. Brought together by a mutual bargain - and a ghost - their bond sparks an attraction that will be far more dangerous than either suspects. Noted for her spirited performances of Amanda Quick’s novels, narrator Barbara Rosenblat captures each nuance of the two heroes’ intelligence and passion.

"Mature yet Agile"

Perfectly and exquisitely narrated and dramatized. This mystery romance fulfills every criteria for the genre with deft dexterity, furvore and aplomb. Serving up humour, drama, clever plot, arcane aspects with good characterizations and dialogue.

It makes you realize just how many poor books there are about, when you are lucky enough to stumbled on this gem of language and lexicon woven into a amusing and ingenious "thriller".

VERY ENJOYABLE INDEED

Meh!

I'm not sure whether this is Regency romantic fiction or fantasy but rather suspect it's just rubbish. The narrator did her best with dire material. I gave up at Chapter 3.

Entertaining listen

Lighthearted fun, great narrator, and just what one looks for in an Amanda Quick book. A relaxing, undemanding, enjoyable listen.

Excellent

Another masterpiece. Loved the story and I like this narrator. A feisty heroine and laconic hero, great combination.
