To Marry the Duke

American Heiress Trilogy Series, Book 1

De: Julianne MacLean

Narrado por: Rosalyn Landor

American heiress Sophia Wilson leaves Old New York for a Season in London. Her goal: to marry into the English aristocracy and help improve her family's social standing in America. Sophia knows her marriage will be a business transaction - her father will provide a generous financial settlement in exchange for a title - but secretly, what she desires most of all is to marry for love.

Love is the last thing on James Langdon's mind. The darkly handsome Duke of Wentworth comes from a menacing past and has learned to avoid his passions at all cost. But his castle in the north is falling into disrepair and what he needs is a swift cash infusion, not to mention an heir. A business transaction with a beautiful American heiress seems the perfect solution.

All goes according to plan until James finds himself enchanted by his spirited new wife, who demands far more from him than the title of duchess. Sophia wants his heart, but his heart is hidden away, shrouded in the darkness of ominous family secrets. James will go to any lengths to protect the dukedom. Soon, he and Sophia must choose between the marriage they thought they wanted and the passion-filled union that could change them forever.

Not a huge fan

While I enjoyed the story, it was a bit too sensual for me. I wish a review had mentioned that so I wouldn’t have wasted my time. Typically the Regency novels I’ve read allude to intimacy but don’t share quite so much.

No one is better than narrator, Rosalyn Landor!

Landor has such a versatile voice - I love it! This story was a good story of character-change! Unfortunately, it doesn't much happen that way. But it was nice to read a story where things worked out fine! Most American women DID come here trying to buy a title- the higher title the better. And as a result, many had awful marriages that didn't last too long! It was nice to read of one that did!

It was sweet, if not a little predictable. Over all I enjoyed listening to it.

If you want a story that will surprise you then this book isn’t for you. If you enjoy a happily ever after story that has a sweet character this is a good book. I enjoyed the story
And listened to the end even though I knew how it would end.

Descriptive emotional feelings

Was a little too long but interesting read for a romance novel. Funny at times with great actors.

Rosalyn does it again

Storyline ok. Repetitive of many past storylines but still enjoyable. I’ll listen again at some point, mostly because I love Rosalyn Landor. I’m willing to listen to anything she narrates!

I love the narrator! Entertaining!

I loved the pace of the story and the performance of the narrator. Been a fan since I heard her from Bridgerton. The story was interesting and my only regret is Sophia didn’t make James suffer a bit more for being so cold to her! Lol!

Really enjoyed this story

Loved the story and the characters. The narrator really makes the story come to life

Just enough intrigue

Slow start but enfolded into a bit of a mystery with enough intrigue to make it interesting but not enough to call it a thriller that keeps you from getting enough sleep. Sex scenes were juicy but infrequent and did not monopolize the story. Realistic. I didn't care for the narrator, she did a fine job but her voice didn't add anything and was in fact somewhat comical for the male voices, seemed forced. Female voices didn't change enough from one character to another so sometimes it was hard to tell who was speaking. Overall I enjoyed the story and will read others by this author.

Plot Twist!

It took quite awhile to get interesting, but if you hold tight you will not be disapoinnted! Once again, Rosalyn Landor is the best!❤

Only 1 available... WHY?

This was a captivating novel storyline. I was impressed with narration the most.
IS there any idea when the other novels in the series will be made available?
