Suddenly a St. Clair

The St. Clairs, Book 5

By: Alexa Aston

Narrated by: Brian J. Gill

Will a marriage of convenience blossom into one filled with love?

Listen to book five in the best-selling The St. Clairs series!

At age 18, Hudson St. Clair learns he’s the Duke of Everton’s bastard. Though never clamed by his father, the new duke, Hudson’s half-brother, accepts Hudson into the family, gifting him with a university education and teaching him about the myriad of businesses controlled by the St. Clair family. His grandmother, Cor, guides Hudson in how to become a gentleman and molds his character, making him a man to be reckoned with. Upon Cor’s death, her wealth and estate will go to him - provided Hudson weds within 60 days after the reading of her will.

Lady Mia Sloane is an inventor, caring for her feeble-minded father on their crumbling country estate. Upon his death, Mia is swept away to London by her pushy but loving aunt, who tries to turn Mia into a woman she’s not. Attending society events at night, Mia spends her days working on her devices, especially the new steam engine she’s sold to Hudson St. Clair and his family.

When Mr. St. Clair proposes a marriage of convenience in order to allow Mia to continue working on her prototypes, she leaps at the offer, despite never having desired a husband or children. The only thing troubling her is her new husband tells her she’s not expected to share his bed - the very thing Mia has become most interested in doing since their experiments in kissing have awakened something within her that only Hudson St. Clair can fill.

Can two misfits rejected by society come together and grow stronger through the lasting bond of love?

Find the answer in bestselling author Alexa Aston’s final book of The St. Clairs, Suddenly a St. Clair.

Great story

loved story but needs better narrator. carries story on really well. must find next one.
.

Good first half

The story became more predictable and less interesting in the second half of the book.

A repetition of her previous books; plots, abduction at the end, standard sex scenes. Low marks. C-/ reader was skilled.

Spoiler alert: Just like previous 2 I read, great beginning with introduction to welcoming family members…then, the perfunctory sex scenes ( that seems inserted) with the regular breast sucking and the (of course) 2-finger insertion and (oh surprise!) orgasm, the couple continue as if it was not more than a hug. They marry, discover True Love, and the lady is abducted by her greedy moronic family for $, and she is rescued….JUST AWFUL…..
