About this listen
Feisty orphan Pippa de Lacey lives by wit and skill as a London street performer. But when her sharp tongue gets her into serious trouble, she throws herself upon the mercy of Irish chieftain Aidan O'Donoghue.
Pippa provides a welcome diversion for Aidan as he awaits an audience with the queen, who holds his people's fate in her hands. Amused at first, he becomes obsessed with the audacious waif who claims his patronage. Rash and impetuous, their unlikely alliance reverberates with desire and the tantalizing promise of a life each has always wanted - but never dreamed of attaining.

As a once happily married woman, Rebecca Parker lived a charmed life, but now widowed and working for a living, she feels alone and lives a mundane existence. That is until the day a valet speeding by on a horse nearly runs her off the road. Mr. Malcolm Henry is apologetic, gentle, and very handsome. She’s instantly drawn to him, which is why, rather than stopping him from kissing her, she finds herself kissing him back, reigniting a nearly forgotten passion in her. But love at first sight only happens in fairy tales—never to an ordinary woman like her.

Cloistered with the other Vessels of her faith, she believes - as all Ovinists do - that a saint imprisoned Elath the Great Demon centuries ago, saving humanity from temptation. When Gelya stumbles into a deadly cover-up by the Ovinists’ military, she reluctantly teams up with Tavik, an enemy soldier, to survive.

However, when her snooty neighbor returns to their small hamlet to brag about having a grand Season, a plethora of ballgowns, and so many suitors that she cannot possibly decide which one to marry, Verity tells a lie. She claims to be betrothed. To a duke. Who happens to be her family’s sworn enemy. But what are the odds that he would ever learn of this one, little, harmless falsehood?

Grace and Dan Arden are in their forties and have been on the IVF treadmill since the day they got married. Six attempts have yielded no results, and with each failure a little piece of their hope dies. Priya Laghari and her husband Nick Archer are being treated at the same fertility clinic, and while they don't face the same time pressure as the Ardens, the younger couple have their own problems. On the same day that Priya is booked for her next IVF cycle, Grace goes in for her final, last-chance embryo transfer. Two weeks later, both women get their results.

Almost Outstanding
Really enjoyed this book, but found a few parts to be carelessly -- almost hastily -- written, and a few other parts to be annoyingly trite and repetitive.
The GOOD: Even though the plot was entirely predictable, the action was good and the story generally carried along well (but: see "the bad," below, for exceptions to the plot carrying along well). The characters were mostly compelling. There was witty dialogue (almost all on the part of the heroine). Once you accept that you have purchased a rather silly Elizabethan-era romance to begin with, there is little necessity to suspend further disbelief; the author takes care to fill most potential plot holes.
The BAD: There are FAR too many moments of: "Oh! He/She suddenly realized that he/she was truly/deeply in love with him/her" (for the fourth, fifth, sixth time?), as he/she could tell by the special "look" in his/her eyes or by some revelatory comment. TOO MANY EPIPHANIES!!!
Also BAD: There were some "skips" in the story line. At a few points I wondered if I had inadvertently skipped ahead in the story. (I had not.) It was disconcerting to discover (well after the fact) that the characters had spent weeks at a certain venue in England (as the heroine reminisces about this), but this was all glossed over during the time it happens within the story, and was only revealed in retrospect. Similarly, I apparently missed a plot point during which the heroine reacts (I will not say how) to a servant's warning. Maybe I really did miss the warning and the heroine's reaction, but I don't think so. (This interaction is casually referred to near the end of the book.)
It is as if the author had outlined the book, but was too lazy or too rushed to actually WRITE all of the sections in the outline, and too lazy to even sketch in the missing parts.
Overall, it's a good romance. Could have been really excellent. Not worth a re-read or re-listen, as is, but I did enjoy it.
Not sure the narrator was the best choice; he's fine, and I thought he was good in a different series he narrated, but in this story, I grew tired of his ever-gravelly voice.
