A Vicar...A Soiled Dove...An Unlikely Romance!

Lord Edmund Knight has dedicated his life to rescuing unfortunates and prostitutes which he refers to as his doves. One of his rescues comes with more baggage than he bargained for, and he is forced to hide her at his brother's estate in far away Devonshire.

Lady Isabella Hartmere was ruthlessly placed up for auction by her father to settle gaming debts, but is miraculously rescued by a vicar in the nick of time. As her father becomes desperate to find her, the situation becomes more dangerous by the minute.

Both are drawn into the web of an old blood feud, but will keeping Isabella safe lead to an unlikely romance?

Really enjoying this author and the narrator is one of my favorites!!!

This is the third in the series and each one so far has been excellent! Clean romance and adventure! Alwx Wyndham is one of my absolute favorite narrators! I was extremely surprised to find that some reviewers didn’t like his narration. His voice for each character is consistent, even across multiple books, and he, although having a masculine voice, provides excellent representation for the different female characters too! He is actually the reason I started listening to this author. I’m really enjoying this series and looking forward to the next one! I am also very glad that Alex Wyndham will be narrating them as well!
Enjoy!

Alex Wyndham narrates

Third in the Knighton family saga. Love the narrator and the characters but this is my least favorite and wish I hadn’t purchased it. Just not very good. Alex’s great narrative voice kept me going.

Great novel. Terrible narrator.

Whoever the narrator was is horrid. He ends nearly ever sentence with an upper tone as if asking a question. It drove me nuts. His intonations repeated for almost every sentence.

heartwarming and refreshing....

The 3rd in the series, which I have grown to love. Clean and thoroughly enjoyable. the Narrator is splendid, too.

Book 3 was good, but book 2 is my favorite

For me, Isabella became a pain various times in the book she was whiny. She didn’t listen she got into trouble. She jeopardize the safety of others and for me just felt annoying at times however, I gave the strong rating because the writing was good enough to impact me in the way that Isabella actually annoyed me, it was good to see her finally have a love match, and reunite with her family

Good Story

I agree with other reviewers that the leading lady was not very smart & acted foolishly endangering others. The leading man was wonderful but not sure how he could be attracted to such a reckless woman. But her actions made for the adventures in the storyline, I guess. As far as the narrator, I love his voice for the male parts, one of my all-time favorites but not fond of his female voices. They all seem rushed & and snotty, and come off as rude most of the time. He’s like that in all his books, but regardless his male voice makes up for it a lot for me. Thank you for the good listen.

Continued series

I liked the new characters and keeping up with old ones too. Having a good narrator makes it even better. I was surprised at the secrets revealed.

Excellent Story

I have loved this series! She writes such great stories and I'll listen to anything Alex Wyndham narrates. Together it's a book to listen to over and over!

Another beautiful book in the series!

The Knight family saga continues with the story of the third brother finding his forever companion in book three. He is a stalwart Vicar in one of the most dangerous places in London where selling women and children into prostitution is a daily event. Edward has made it his life’s work to rescue these victims and rehabilitate them into functional members of the working class so they can have an honest livelihood. Imagine his surprise when a daughter of the realm, an Earls daughter, is sold to the highest bidder by her father and he must rescue the love of his life. An engaging story of great love and danger to the Knight family.

I’m an outlier on the narrator

This is an okay story. It has a simple plot so is drawn out to fill pages, but it’s decent and entertaining to have on in the background. However, I’m always disappointed to see Alex as narrator on a book. I truly enjoyed him on the deeper Lucinda Brandt stories and the earlier Stella Riley books. But after a while, I began to find him fatiguing to listen to. He whispers too much, has an uptick at the end of most sentences, and has a repetitive, clipped cadence for the narrative parts. The voices of his women are dreary and sound exactly alike (mostly petulant or wimpy) in everything he reads. He does excel at men’s voices and personalities, capturing the mood of a story, and getting the scenes spot on. It reminds me of Rosalyn Landor. She hits the ball out of the park on certain books, but I dislike hearing her on too many things—all I can think about is her distinct character voices (that she rarely changes) instead of the story. So, sorry Alex fans…I know he’s talented, but I need long breaks from him, so I skipped to the end to get to the HEA on this one.
