Confirmed Bachelors, Book 2

De: Jenny Hambly

Narrado por: Helen Taylor

Captain Charles Bassington of the 13th Light Dragoons is famed for his good luck, high spirits, and devil-may-care attitude. He escapes serious injury at Waterloo only to succumb to an inflammation of the lungs. When he returns home to recuperate, cracks begin to appear in his cheery façade.

Lady Selena has adored Charles all her life, but when she receives a letter from him suggesting his friend Lord Carteret would make a good husband, she is forced to put aside childish dreams that he might one day love her.

As Charles determines to forge a new career close to his family and friends, Selena opens her mind to the prospect of marrying another.

It is only when two eminently eligible bachelors appear to be vying for her hand that Charles realizes his own heart’s desire.

But how can the younger son of a baron ever hope to be worthy of the wealthy daughter of an earl?

very good

Loved it !! this story. the narrator is so fantastic it's like your really there!! good overall

Thumping good

I thoroughly enjoyed the book. I have a personal test for judging a book: do the characters seem to live a life separate from the pages of the book? These characters do. It’s definitely worth listening to.

It’s okay

I like this author and appreciated the clean aspect, though it was a little slow in spots because of the simple plot. Don’t let that stop you, because it’s a perfectly fine story to have on in the background. You don’t need to listen too closely to keep up with the goings on. Narration was great, though sometimes I had trouble discerning the characters.
