A sensual, erotic story with the rich texture of Regency romance with the spice of erotica.

Margaret Seymour is bored by the stifling constraints of society dictating her behavior as a debutante in search of a husband. Her prospects are promising by the standards of London society, yet, not one of them causes her heart to flutter, or her head to fill with scintillating, forbidden fantasies. Those feelings are reserved for Camden Rycroft, Duke of Avonleah - a man who isn't even aware of her existence.

While attending a scandalous Vauxhall Gardens masquerade, Margaret finds herself in the duke's arms. His promise of a night of pleasure is tempting, but is it worth it when Avonleah is a known rake notorious for his short attention span and avoidance of marriage?

Camden Rycroft is intrigued by the masked vixen he encounters in the Gardens. After one night with her leaves him hungry for more, his desire for her turns into a fiery obsession. Despite the scandal that could ensue from their affair, he finds himself unable to extract himself from a situation destined to end in pain. When faced with losing Margaret to a potential husband, will he rise to the occasion, or risk living without her?

I have never heard a female narrator do the male character better than the female character. Voice is too shrill when performing the female character.

Wrong Narrator!!

Story is generic so easy to follow if dealing with distractions. Sex is explicit & hot. Characters are predictable but charming. Narrator was successful in audibly delineating one character from another but was also slightly grating in her delivery; performance would've benefited from a good director.

good for a long, intimate afternoon

The narrator was all wrong for this story. I tried to get into the story but was constantly frustrated by the over-the-top dramatization. Too bad she narrated books 1-3. I think I’ll skip to 4.

Terrible narration!

This book is not for the faint of heart! Other reviewers didn’t care for the narrator but I found her engaging. I enjoyed this book so thoroughly I wish it hadn’t ended. Cannot wait to listen to the rest of the series. Victoria Vale is a new author to me first listening to The Villian Duology & the sequels, they were all amazing. I am ridiculously happy to have found this author!

Love smut books!

Loved the story, it's sexy and kinda funny. The narrator though...her voice was too mature and the way she spoke the characters made the listen sound like a parody of an Audible narrator. I rolled my eyes quite a few times.

Fun Sexy Story but...
