Someone Wanton His Way Comes

Wantons of Waverton, Book 1

De: Christi Caldwell

Narrado por: Alex Wyndham, Emma Roya

Christi Caldwell, USA Today bestselling author of the Wicked Wallflowers series, invites you to join London’s most scandalous society in a witty romance of love, rebellion, and second chances.

Widowed Lady Sylvia Elton is out to save young ladies from the terrible fate of love and marriage. Her former husband has retained his reputation as an honorable and loving man in death, but Sylvia has privately mourned his lies and infidelity. Joined by two equally scorned and cast-off friends, Sylvia establishes the Mismatch Society. With each new liberated member, the scandalous circle wreaks havoc on the romantic prospects of London’s frustrated male peerage. But nothing prepares Sylvia for the Viscount St. John, a familiar face and her most formidable challenger.

Clayton Kearsley, the Viscount St. John, can’t allow these wantons to dismantle the Marriage Mart. Until he discovers the ringleader is his old friend’s widow, a fine woman for whom he’s carried a torch since the day they met. Thinking himself undeserving of a diamond like her, he introduced her to his best friend - a decision he now regrets deeply, knowing of the hurt she carries in secret.

Now he is positioned to match wits with this woman, who is determined to save young ladies from future heartbreak. And despite his misgivings, Clayton is entertaining fantasies that he could end their battle with a kiss. If only he had the courage to tell her how he feels - or the hope that she’d ever again let down her guard.

This meeting of the Mismatch Society is called to order...

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Narrator Alex Wyndham's low, whispery timbre and sexy British accent perfectly capture both male and female characters. He is especially effective as Viscount St. John. Narrator Emma Roya's voice is equally effective. She excels with the whiny moments of Lady Sylvia's mother and sisters. The narrators' portrayals are compatible, and the smooth transitions between them add to an enjoyable audio experience.” –AudioFile Magazine

“Caldwell provides enough secrets, scandals, and scheming to keep the lovers on their toes.” —Publishers Weekly

“Humorous, tender, and altogether fun, Caldwell’s latest will have wide appeal among romance readers.” —Library Journal (starred review)

Great book!

I loved it! Christi Caldwell is an amazing author. I can't wait to hear the rest of the series. Romance and humor with a little mystery and suspense.

Narrator

He was good but the drag at the end of the sentence drove me nuts

Just the escape I needed

Far fetched. Yes. But everything a regency lover wants and needs in a regency romance.

The narrators were great too. I don’t normally love when there’s a male and female narrator, but this one worked well.

Well, not as good as anticipated

This story has been in my wishlist for a long time as I waited for my credits to reload. With stories that I have to pay for or use credits I naturally assume they will be better than those included in my membership. I am a huge Christi Caldwell fan but this story disappointed. It was alright, just alright. Not great.

My favorite so far!

I have enjoyed all of Christy Caldwell’s books but this has to be my favorite. I really enjoyed the family dynamic of Clayton’s family and all the humor. The love story was so sweet with very little angst, and a lot of steam! I highly recommend

Beautiful

Clayton and Sylvia come together after years apart, friendship and love with betrayal and secrets, what more can you want in a good romantic novel... This was beautifully written

Loved it!

Really good historical romance!! Great storyline! Likeable characters and fantastic narration done. I highly recommend this book👌

The pronunciation of the female narrator bad

But it does improve! I love revisionist romance! This is definitely not historically accurate but fub!

Not what I'd hoped

The story was entertaining and the characters interesting but the sexual encounters were unrealistically public and started way too early in the story to build any realism. I didn't care for the narration much; I have heard Alex Wyndam narrate before and was really looking forward to hearing him again, but his narration here was sing-songy and bland, much like his counterpart. I almost had to stop listening half way through...

Brilliant!I was

I love Christie's Books, her stories are always filled with witty banter ,A catchy plot and memorable characters. This title included a little extra heat in the romantic scenes--very sensual but not obscene. Caldwell is an absolute master writer. Enjoy!
