Acerca de esta escucha
The first in a new regency romance series about two feuding families, and reunited childhood enemies whose hatred turns to love.
Maddie Montgomery’s family is in debt, and her hope rests on the rival Davies clan missing their yearly “pledge of goodwill", ceding the land that separates their estates. With Maddie’s teenage nemesis, Gryffud “Gryff” Davies, Earl of Powys, away, hope is in reach. But then Gryff shows up on a horse and is stunned that the tomboy he once teased is now a woman.
When Gryff and Maddie discover contraband on their land, they realize it can benefit both families. But they’ve also uncovered a dangerous plot, and they need to work together to get out alive. Soon their hatred for each other starts to feel more like attraction.
Kate Bateman brings crackling banter, steamy romance, and a dash of adventure into the first book in the Ruthless Rivals series.

Forced to do the bidding of a corrupt government minister, Marianne de Bonnard agrees to plant incriminating evidence in the offices of France’s most notorious spymaster.

Historia
Griff Knighton's found the perfect way to avoid being trapped into marriage with one of the Earl of Swanlea's daughters: He'll swap identities with his man of affairs during their next visit to Swan Park, and be free to pursue his own desires! After all, he's not about to marry some homely spinster just to claim his rightful title. But Griff didn't reckon on the brazen, voluptuous Rosalind, who could tempt even a saint into sinning, and Griff is no saint.

Society dictates that a governess should be modest, quiet, and keep to herself. She should never contradict her employer. And, above all, she must not attract the attention of any male in the household. But Michael Severson doesn't see Isabel Halloran as a governess - he sees her as a woman, one whose lush curves cannot be hidden behind a dowdy gown...and whose efforts at hiding her sparkling intelligence are betrayed by her wit.

A Reckless Match
Not your ordinary regency romance. This one is filled with angst, action, and of course a centuries old rivalry. I listened to the audiobook because I really like Kate Bateman's writing especially when Beverly A. Crick is matched as the narrator! I've never heard Beverly do anything other than a spectacular job! Book 2 isn't out yet, but to be released at the end of May! I look forward to reading that one as well.😍

Lovely story, interesting characters
Kate Bateman is a relatively new author for me, but she has proven to be a great story teller and very clever at character development. This book has elements that make a great romance novel - love, just enough sturm and drang to create interest, mystery and sex. IMHO there was a little too much sex.....three consecutive chapters is a bit too much.
The book was also well narrated. Beverly Crick did a great job with the Welsh accents.
