Summary

Best-selling author Julia Quinn flawlessly combines passionate romance with "pitch perfect humor" ( Publishers Weekly).

Miranda Cheever has been blessed with many things, but great beauty is not among them. Still, when she meets Viscount Tuner, she knows she is meant for him. As the years go by, fate is as kind to Miranda as it is harsh on the Viscount. He's skeptical about love with good reason - but he may be falling for Miranda.

Awful narration tainted the story

My goodness, what terrible narration! It was delivered in a ridiculous monotone which sounded half-drunk and slurred throughout. It was like listening to an aged aunt reading to you after a bottle of her strongest sherry. The characters were read in a stilted and unlikeable way, completely ruining Julia Quinn’s perfectly adequate story.

I have listened to most other Julia Quinn books on Audible and they have, without exception, been enriched by Rosalyn Landor’s outstanding narration. Perhaps this has just exaggerated how badly this book has been read. I have no doubt that I would have liked the book far better had it also been read by Ms Landor. What a pity!

Loved it.

I really got into this book from the beginning to the end. It enthralled me to the point I was not sure if this was going to disappoint me with the ending so near. But as with most Julia Quinn’s books, it kept me guessing until the end. If you are a fan of Julia Quinn’s books, then I am sure this will not disappoint.

Bit hard going

I like Julia Quinn normally but I found this one hard going. It was all quite obvious and the characters weren't the best. sorry. not for me.

Easy listening and classic Quinn!

I really disliked the narration and stopped listening after two chapters. I eventually came back to it and listened at 1.2x which helped!
The story is sweet, a little predictable but another easy listen from Julia Quinn

Loved the story

I listened to this story way into the early hours, didn’t want to stop. That doesn’t happen often. Thank you for hours of entertainment.

Great story

This was a nice story spoilt by poor narration. Julia Quinn’s writing was predictable but amusing. It kept me engaged and I was always keen to listen to the next chapter. Why this narrator was chosen I don’t know!? She lacks cadence and it can mislead the listener’s comprehension of the scene.

Rubbish narrative

Julia Quinn’s story was not one of her best, imo, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.
However, NOT having Rosalyn Landor as narrator was a HUGE MISTAKE. It was not as entertaining as usual, the funny bits were harder to pick out, the sex scenes were robotic. It just didn’t ’gel’.

Great story but terrible narrator

I'm a big fan of Julia Quinn but this book was sadly let down by the terrible narration. Her voice was monotonous and hard to listen to.
