About this listen
Trapped in a crevice after a carriage accident, Amanda Downy is not sure whether she'll ever see the light of day again. With her tongue loosened by a fellow passenger's flask of brandy, she reveals several well-guarded secrets about her life as a governess at Colonel Watson's residence, including the fact that she falsified her references to gain her employment.
The next morning Amanda is horrified when she finds that the passenger who saved her life after the carriage crash is sitting at the breakfast table at Colonel Watson's estate, and it appears that he is the long-absent Colonel himself! Amanda is certain that she will be immediately dismissed, but the Colonel has a different sort of discipline in mind for her.
The Colonel soon learns that in spite of the deceitful manner with which she obtained the position, Miss Downy is an excellent governess and is much loved by his children. After a firm dose of the leather strap on her bare bottom, he lets her know that she may keep her position as long as she is truthful with him in the future. As time passes, though, the Colonel finds himself thinking of Amanda as he has not thought about any woman since his beloved wife passed away. Though he has no intention of ever marrying again, he cannot deny his growing need for her.
Amanda has a longstanding dislike for stiff military men, yet she warms to the Colonel, discovering that underneath his gruff exterior he is kind and generous. As she wonders if the attraction is mutual, another suitor makes his interest known. Should she accept his offer? Or should she wait to see if the Colonel will ever make his move?

The lovely attorney kept a secret from me. A baby she’s been carrying since Valentine’s night. The night we were thrown together by the roulette wheel. She never contacted me. Meant to keep me in the dark. She’s about to find out what happens when you cross a bratva boss. Punishment is in order. Sequestering until the birth. And I’ll use that time to win her surrender. Because I don’t just plan to keep the baby - I plan to make his mother my bride. And it would be much better for both of us if she were willing.

Being attracted to her isn't wrong…but acting on it would be. As the patriarch of the powerful and wealthy Cavalieri family, my choices come with consequences for everyone around me. The roots of my ancestral, billionaire-dollar winery stretch deep into the rich Italian soil, as does our legacy of ruthlessness and scandal. It isn't the fact she is half my age that makes her off-limits. Nothing is off-limits for me. A wounded bird caught in a trap not of her own making, she poses no risk to me. My obsessive desire to possess her is the real problem—for both of us.

Great story, great narrator, bad recording equipment
This story was really good. Kept me interested. The narrator did a great job with the different character voices and I love her accent and manor of speech. That being said, my only regret is that they didn’t have good equipment to do the recording. (Listen to the sample before you buy.) However, the story was so good that I forgot about the bad sound quality because I just wanted to know what came next!

Fate has a warped sense of humour
Trapped beneath an upturned carriage, the young governess, Miss Downey, believed she was about to die. The liquor, one of her fellow passengers plied her with, trying to calm her nerves, also loosened her tongue, and she spoke to perhaps clear her conscious, if these were her last moments alive.
She did not die, but the very next morning, coming down for breakfast, she wished she had, as one of the two men that had been trapped with her, was her employer, who was a stern military man, who had just returned home from extended service overseas.
How was she to survive if she was dismissed?
You will enjoy how twisted fate's sense of humor (or is it Ms Rose's quirky sense of placing her characters into interesting dilemmas), either way, a very entertaining read.
I listened to the audio rendition of this book and found it both relaxing and amusing, due largely to the diversity of voices used by the narrator.

Not what I expected
I really like the characters but wish something was happening. But this is not an erotic romance. There is some nonsexual disciplinary spanking but no romance. I’m less than an hour from the end and nothing of substance has happened between the main characters. I’m confused.

You like spanking me!
Loved this book! If you enjoy a lot of spanking and listening to two people fall in love, you will enjoy it too!
After her father's death, Amanda had to get a job in order to survive. So, she said she had experience as a governess. Unfortunately, her new employer overheard her confess that she had NO experience! And the colonel, being a strict military man, couldn't let this lie go unpunished... Then, their attraction grew from there!

This isn’t a finished audiobook
In my opinion, this is like a draft. It’s super short and the story feels like the Cliff notes. The narrator has skills…. Love her voice and she really conveys the emotions of the characters. Unfortunately, her voice was echoing. I got used to it a little bit but then at chapter 6 it seemed like a completely different narrator/equipment. It was distracting. As far as the story goes, the “sample” seemed super steamy and ya know…. It was basically just that same scene 4 times over. She kept “misbehaving” and he would lash her butt as punishment. My brain couldn’t enjoy it because it was meant as punishment. It felt really weird to me. Anyway, had this book been free or like $4.99 I would be fine…. But I think I paid a credit for it so I was super disappointed. I’m moving on to a different author.

Lovely
Would you listen to Pleasing the Colonel again? Why?
Yes I'll definitely listen to this again, loved the story and the narrator has a pleasing voice.
Any additional comments?
I look forward to reading and listening to more of Renee Rose's books she has never disappointed me yet. Though they could be longer I never want them to end.

ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS AUDIO!!!
Any additional comments?
I can't say enough about Renee Rose and her wonderful writing. Absolutely loved this adventure and awakening for the Colonel - loved how they interacted with each other, of course love the Alpha male and the spankings and the era that this story was based on. This narrator did a fantastic job, I even looked to see if she had done other audios, because I thought she had done such a good job. The only negative thing I can say about "Pleasing the Colonel", is it was way too short. Can't wait for the next audio from Ms. Rose.
