About this listen
New York Times bestselling author Cathy Maxwell’s delicious Logical Man’s Guide to Dangerous Women series continues with this provocative romance between a reprobate earl and a sensible spinster who agree to marry under scandalous circumstances. Perfect for fans of Sophie Jordan and Sabrina Jeffries.
Lesson #1: A man, even titled and handsome, cannot be careless forever.
The Earl of Marsden—better known as Mars to all—has lived his life by his own rules…until he is presented with a very big problem in a very tiny package—a baby girl, his daughter cast off by his ex-mistress. Mars won’t let his child be cast adrift, except he doesn’t know the first thing about babies.
Panicking, he turns to a woman for help. Not just any woman, but Clarissa Taylor, village spinster, matron-in-training, and Mars’s greatest critic. Still, who better to tend a motherless child than a woman who was abandoned as a babe herself?
Lesson #2: Life always plays the upper hand—especially when it comes to love.
Clarissa desperately wishes to not to be beholden to anyone. She has spent a lifetime being pitied by the village. Her plan is simple—to use what the intolerable earl will pay her to become her own woman. It all sounds so straightforward until the threat of scandal sends her and the one man she can’t abide toward . . . marriage?
Mars and Clarissa are about to learn the greatest lesson of all—that sparks always fly when the iron is hot.

Story4 out of 5 stars 118
He's inherited a title, but not a penny to speak of, so the Earl of Rochdale knows he must find a wife - preferably one tolerably pretty and good-tempered but definitely wealthy, and who will exchange her fortune for his family name. His choice: Leonie Charnock, one of the season's "Spinster Heiresses". Years before, the earl had saved the dark-eyed beauty's reputation, and she is still breathtakingly lovely, leading Rochdale to hope that their marriage will be more than in name only.

Andrew Carrington, Earl of Bellingham, believes in being a gentleman, whether it's fishing a soggy stranger out of the Thames or assisting a fetching lady into his bed. If the stranger becomes a friend and the lady a mistress, all the better. He certainly welcomes the opportunity to help Laura Davenport, a dazzling young widow with a rebellious stepson. Her gratitude, he hopes, will take an amorous form. But from the moment he sets foot in her drawing room, he gets far more than he bargained for.

Recommend pleasant romance
I would recommend this book for a relaxed beach romance. The characters were enjoyable if not a touch dull. I'm a fan of banter in romances as it really perks up the book (like this one). I like that she was strong and wasn't a push over. I like that he was flawed, not overly so, but redeemable. I don't care for over angst in a book and this one had just the right amount. Justin Eyre had a lovely tone, good voices but I did use 1.25 speed at times.

Excellent book, characters, narration
Is this the end of this series? I hope not, bcuz I want to find out what happens to the Duke. I enjoyed this series, but really loved this book. The twists and turns take this Regency Romance over the top. The characters, while not perfect, were likeable and entertaining. The dialogue was witty and entertaining. Thank you ladies for another masterpiece.

Good story - can be a stand alone in the series.
Having not read the other books in this series yet, this was a very good story. One of the best of Cathy Maxwell’s books. Without any spoilers…Would have loved a little more plot at the end with Mar’s mother’s reaction and Clarissa’s father info. Narrator is one of my favorites and great as always.
