New York Times bestseller Lisa Kleypas delights in the third book in the Bow Street series, an enthralling and steamy romance about the most seductive and dangerous rake in England tasked with finding a runaway bride—but when he finds her, will he be able to keep his feelings in check?

Nick Gentry, the most seductive and dangerous man in England, has been sent to find Charlotte Howard, a runaway bride who has disappeared without a trace. But when he finds her, Nick is stunned by the intensity of his attraction to the elusive young woman whose adventurous spirit matches his own.

Determined to escape a forced marriage to a man who will destroy her, Charlotte agrees to an audacious bargain . . . she will become Nick Gentry's bride. But soon she discovers that Nick has secrets of his own, and it will take all her wits and stubborn will to tame his tormented soul.

In the desperate quest to protect Charlotte from the diabolical aristocrat who threatens her, one thing becomes clear: to save the woman he loves, Nick will take any risk . . . and pay any price.

FANTASTIC

This is the best on in the Bow Street Runners series. I loved every minute.

Great

Great as always. Great writer. Love the series and other books. Have almost read all her books and enjoyed all so far.

Turmulous relationships can be reconciled by true love.

Entertaining story that captured my interest to follow all the way through but somewhat predictable conclusion.

Okay Storyline If....

you enjoy this type of novel, Historical Romance, and stories written by Lisa Kleypas, Mary Balogh, etc., AND narrated by Rosalyn Landor you may enjoy this one. I listen to these stories while doing other things. I enjoy Landor's narration style. So, for me, historical romances are "easy listening" I enjoy the stories, and I can usually root for both the hero and the heroine's characters. This story deals with what we in today's world would label as pedophilia. An 18 year-old young woman "runs away" from her parents home because they want her to marry a man 30 years her senior. Since age 9, the man would visit the home and meet privately with the girl.... it seems that parents had legal rights to virtually exchange (sell) a daughter for money with the only snag in the exchange is the man can't claim the girl until she's 18 years old. All's well that ends well as these stories usually end on a happy note. .... Recommend

Wonderful as always

I loved this series! I love all Kleypas novels but enjoyed this series immensely. Didn’t enjoy the narration of Bow Street but the other two were great!

Good and steamy series!

All characters were well developed in all 3 books in this series. Creative plots and very steamy sex. Ros Landor is an excellent narrator as always!

Another one bites the dust 😩

Oh LK what’s going on? I waited for the story to go somewhere but nothing. It was a bit tedious. So many times I wanted to stop listening but also wanted to keep giving it a chance. Oh well. Still enjoy your style.

Too much sex, too little plot, not a new book

I generally love Lisa Kleypas' books, not so much this one. The plot moved forward sex scene by sex scene. It was too much. I also didn't realize this was not a new book. I thought the narrator did an excellent job given what she was reading.
