About this listen
Archer Hamilton is a collector of rare and beautiful insects. Gina Shaw is a servant in his uncle's house. Clearly out of place in the position in which she has been discovered, she becomes a source of fascination...and curiosity.
A girl with a blighted past and a fortune she deems a curse, Gina has lowered herself in order to find escape from her family and their scheming designs. But when she is found, the stakes suddenly become dire.
All Gina wants is the freedom to live her life as she would wish. All her aunts want is the money that comes with her. But there is more than one way to trap an insect. An arranged marriage might turn out profitable for more parties than one.
Mr. Hamilton is about to make the acquisition of a lifetime. But will the price be worth it? Can a woman captured and acquired learn to love the man who has bought her?

Lady Aileana Grant just wants to help her starving clan at Christmastide. So she pilfers some vegetables from the bastard Laird James MacDonald—the Devil, they call him. When the Devil shows up and demands marriage as recompense for the thievery, Aileana can't believe it when her brother agrees. Even if she's able to negotiate a severance on Twelfth Night, that's still two weeks to put up with the laird in enemy territory. She's counting down the days, even if James isn't quite the disgusting cretin she'd imagined.

Beatrice Poole may be a vicar's daughter, but that doesn't mean she's a stranger to the darker passions. Indeed, she knows enough about gothic terrors to have carved out a highly successful career penning "horrid novels." But now the talented authoress finds herself in the midst of an ominous adventure that rivals anything she's ever written.Her beloved Uncle Reggie is dead, Beatrice suspects that he was murdered - all because of his keen interest in a fabled treasure that may not even exist. Rumors abound that the Forbidden Rings of Aphrodite, said to give their possessor the most unnatural powers, have surfaced in London. Yet Beatrice needs more than rumors to uncover the truth. That's why she's braved the wilds of Devon to seek out a leading authority on antiquities and ancient legends: The famously eccentric, unquestionably reclusive, possibly dangerous Earl of Monkcrest, a man believed to dabble in the supernatural.But bearding the Mad Monk of Monkcrest in his den and dangling the possibility of uncovering a fabulous artifact before him may be the biggest mistake of Beatrice's life. For suddenly, she finds herself joined in an uneasy alliance with a man who is every bit as fascinating as one of the heroes in her novels.

good story
I only wish the sentences were longer and the narrator paused less between sentences. As it is, the telling is staccato.

Great narration
I enjoy a long book, so I didn't mind the 20 hr, 44min run time. The plot kept me engrossed until the very end. Rachel P. Jenkins is a fantastic narrator and I hope she narrates some other books soon!

Horrible, long, BORING story
Story was just not good. struggled, really struggled to finish, waste of time. Main character willing enters into agreement w/ uncle of prostitution, then does nothing to save him from fatal accident, she then plays the victim. Openly admits to wanting the attentions of her uncle's clients and that he (uncle) never forced her to participate, inherits a fortune, runs from it, even through she earned every last dime of it. She could have run away prior to the prostitution job, like when the uncle was behaving weird-sounds like a good time to me. This runway could have happen before she did nothing to save he uncle from certain death. The lunacy continues with her "don't touch me/chase behavior", post prostitution, she then has desires for her cousin, all pretty sick really. The author never places real blame on the character, just her guilt, which of course is to be discourage, never her fault. Now mind you this is all set in the 1800's. How in world did this book get past the editors or publisher's-I don't know, but you should know before you waste a credit or cash!!!

Story drug on and on. Dialog was silly. One word sentences, too many pages worth. There was not one character that made you want to like them. Very much disliked this book. The actress reading was good.
