De: C. J. Archer

Narrado por: Gabrielle Baker

From USA Today best-selling author C. J. Archer, this romantic historical mystery will take your breath away.

Seven years ago a woman with too many secrets and a man with too many lies fell in love. Then she left him.

Isabel's quiet life as an assistant to one of London's famous apothecaries hides a deadly secret. A secret that could see her put on trial for witchcraft if the authorities uncover the truth. But when the authority figure who turns up at her shop is Sir Nicholas Merritt, she's at risk of losing more than her life. She could lose her heart and soul, and the man she loves.

Royal spy Sir Nicholas Merritt can't believe his luck when he stumbles upon Isabel during an investigation. He's been searching for her for seven long years and now he has her again, in his bed and his life. Except she's resisting all the way. Worse still, she's somehow tangled up with a plot to assassinate the queen. To hold onto her this time, he must find out why she left him while hiding a secret of his own that could tear them apart forever.

A delight!

I thoroughly enjoyed Isabel and Nick’s story. They make a mean crime fighting duo. I look forward to their next big adventure.

GREAT COZY MYSTERY

This book reads like an IMAX movie. It jumps off the page, pulls you in with strong leading characters, especially Nicholas's mother. Lots of hate and discontent, secrets, and reconnecting going on. But who doesn't love a good spy / love story. C.J Archer has become a new FAV on my list of authors.

Spicier than Glass and Steel

Cute read. Little predictable and tied up the end in a nice little bow that wasn’t true to the characters but enjoyable

Enjoyed this book

I enjoyed all parts of this book—plot, characters, and narrator. Iam hooked on CJ Archer books.

Cozy Read

This is the perfect type of book I enjoy listening to as I go about my daily routine. It keeps me interested and engaged in the story without being too unbelievably fanciful.

Nice story poorly performed

I liked the story, the characters were lacking a little in depth but overall it was an enjoyable plot.
The narration was awful. The first time I started to listen I only got through 15 minutes and I had to put it down because it was so annoying. I managed to give it another try and the story managed to pull me in enough for me to listen despite the poor narrative. The voices female between characters can be very confusing. The pitch and inflection, even the speed for various events in the story was too monotonous. This narrator could become a good one if they were to breath a little more life into the narration.
The characters were a little predictable but the writer did provide some interesting twists.
As for the supernatural aspect, this is a good story for those who prefer “The Good Witch” level of supernatural.
Nice steamy scenes without launching fully into soft porn.
A Pleasant read/listen overall.

Fantastic!

I LOVE the storyline, characters, plot, EVERYTHING. One of this authors BEST! Three more words

I am so glad I found this author

Thank you for making this an audible book. They are fun with just a little heat.

Good

Good story, it’s an older one from this author, historical romance with a hint of paranormal.

Light cute story

A little predictable but enjoyable read. Narration pretty good - a bit nasty mother in law and a slightly doting son; but he finally learns
