Sins of a Wicked Duke

De: Sophie Jordan

Narrado por: Emily Gray

She works to live....

One would think the last place a beauty like Fallon O'Rourke could keep her virtue was in the Mayfair mansion of London's most licentious duke, the notorious Dominic Hale. Yet Fallon - who's endured nothing but lecherous advances since her father's tragic death - is perfectly safe there... disguised as a footman! Beneath the notice of the dark-haired devil with his smoldering blue eyes and sinful smile, Fallon never imagines her secret will be discovered. But how long can her deception last when she begins to wish she is one of the many women traipsing in and out of the sinful rogue's bedchamber?

He lives to sin....

Most men envy the duke, never suspecting his pleasure-loving ways are a desperate attempt to escape, however briefly, the pain of a past that's left him with a heart of stone. Only one woman can break down his defenses. Only one woman can win his love...if she reveals her secret and succumbs to the sins of the wicked duke.

Predictable...

Hmmm...I like my romances with lot's of suprise turns and a little passion mixed in. By all the summeries this book fit the bill. I found it fell a bit flat. It was an uncomfortable read with impossible ups and downs and while the ending was predictable, not really plausible.

Narrator tiny tiny bit under par

Would you listen to Sins of a Wicked Duke again? Why?

I've always liked this story and would listen to it again. It wasn't done badly, I just thought that the narration wasn't quite what I hoped for as compared to other audiobooks of its type.
If you're wondering whether to spend the money to hear the audio of a book you've already read or want to know the story for the first time it's not a waste.

Good enough story and a good narrator

You know what you're getting with these types of books, some are more entertaining than others - this one is one of the better ones. Fallon can't get a job cause she's too sexy with her long striking hair so she dresses like a boy to get a job as a footman. The devilish but handsome (of course!) Duke hates himself and uses women one after the other. Fallon ends up working for the Duke who has no idea his new valet is the lovely woman he rescued one night and who has haunted him since their meeting.

Well worth the credit and I will look for further books by Sophie Jordan.

Drab

The narrator was pretty good. The characters were not very developed. The story was soooooo predictable and cliché. Nothing too exciting or interesting about this story.

Sexy, funny, showed bravery, romantic

This book had it all, also loved the reader in this. There was enough suspense, but not so much that you had to wait for release of the tension, then more suspense. All around excellent!
