Dreaming of You

Gamblers, Book 2

De: Lisa Kleypas

Narrado por: Rosalyn Landor

When shy and secluded author Sara Fielding ventures from her country cottage to research a novel, she inadvertently witnesses a crime in progress - and manages to save the life of the most dangerous man in London.

Derek Craven is a powerful and near-legendary gambling club owner who was born a bastard and raised in the streets. His reputation is unsavory, his scruples nonexistent. But Sara senses that beneath Derek's cynical exterior, he is capable of a love more passionate than her deepest fantasies.

Aware that he is the last man that an innocent young woman should ever want, Derek is determined to protect Sara from himself, no matter what it takes. But in a world where secrets lurk behind every shadow, he is the only man who can keep her safe. And as Derek and Sara surrender to an attraction too powerful to deny, a peril surfaces from his dark past to threaten their happiness...and perhaps even their lives.

Together they will discover if love is enough to make dreams come true.

So engaging & fun.

I’m listening to the series but you can jump in anywhere & enjoy each one. I adore them! Holds your interest & I’ve fallen in love with each character. Going g to buy the next one. ENJOY!

proof you can't judge at 1st sight!

could not wait for the next bit of enthralling drama, debauchery, and scintillating seduction.

Excellent series

I have a deep love for all of Lisa Kleypas books and this is definitely favorite of mine. I love the first book in the series a little bit more but that’s because Lily and Alex are so much fun. I love that they play a decent role in this book too.

Derek is a man who has never known love so he’s spent his life playing hard to protect himself. Sara is sweet and independent and sees his soul from the beginning. Their love is true and Lisa does am amazing job of slowly getting Derek to give on to his emotions and experience love for the first time in his life.

Rosalyn Landor is so amazing that you forget you are listening to one narrator and not a bunch of different characters. She’s that good or I should say magnificent!

Wonderful Series!

I enjoy all of Lisa’s Kleypas Regency Novels. Rosa Landor is another favorite narrator.
Great 2 books!

As good as I remember

Read this years ago and decided to buy the audiobook and it's even better. Voice performance was great. her male voices were excellent. And of course Derek has always has my heart.

Better than the first in the series

Good to see the redemption of Derek Craven in this volume. A good read, worth a credit.

Love it ❤️ and will listen over and over again

Classic Lisa Kleypas. I wish there were more books in the series. I didn’t want the story to end. Will definitely listen to this one multiple times. Lots of surprise turns in this one.

Best Lisa Kleypas I’ve listened to yet!

I’m in love with her books. This one especially. I love how her books are part of the same universe. I wasn’t expecting that Cravens was the same place talked about in the wallflower series, which I adored mostly. Sara is her best heroine yet, and Derek her best hero. I love the two of them and their story. I’m wondering if all her romance historicals are part of the same universe? Can’t wait to find out!

enjoyable

I really liked this story. to me it was a little long it is hard for me to keep my attention for story this long. it is enjoyable though.

I'm Not Good Enough For You

Derrick Cravens loves Sara so much he wants to protect her even from himself. He thinks that he is not good enough for her. He understands the significance of their class differences. She is a very nice girl from the country, she writes fictional novels that deals with prostitution; she is in love with him and she wants him. She likes how he made her feel when he kissed her one time. She is excited, she proposed to him but he said no. It took a while for me to fully understand why he kept telling her no, but I finally understood the depth of his reason. In addition to their class differences, it's his own sexual needs that he is afraid of. He believes he would ruin her angelic sensibilities Well, she proved his thinking wrong, of course! This is a good story which could have been edited down a bit but I highly recommend it. Rosalyn Landor's narration is excellent as usual.
