The Secrets of a Courtesan

By: Nicola Cornick

Narrated by: Elizabeth Jasicki

The epitome of privilege and power, the handsome Duke of Welburn sets all the ladies' hearts aflutter as he strides into the village of Fortune's Folly.

For Eve Nightingale this fluttering is a mixture of wariness and wonder. Once his glittering society mistress - caught up in his glamorous world by day and tangled in his bedsheets by night - she is now no more than a penniless yet proud shopkeeper.

It's a world Eve can't go back to - she has secrets to keep. But this determined duke seems very keen on unravelling them....

Romantic, if clichéd...

The skeleton of a good book is in this short work. It is, however, too short for any character development that would allow it to rise above stereotypes.

Really enjoyed and wished it was longer.

Very good story, I love the historical romance stories that have that twist of a mystery. Recommend this story.

not happy

How could the performance have been better?

Too artificial, sound more sincere

No

Any additional comments?

No

Very sweet

For a short story this was well done. I enjoyed it. The characters were likable and believable and the plot was interesting.

Not for me. Boring

This book was so boring I was almost nodding off. I don't know really what else to say. The narration was dull too. Sorry, I say pass on this book. Short and boring. If it had been any longer I would have quit it.
