About this listen
Once Upon a Time...
Maria Martingale was going to elope. But Phillip Hawthorne, Marquess of Kayne, put a stop to those plans when he learned his younger brother intended to marry a cook's daughter. Now, 12 years later, Maria discovers that the man who holds her fate in his hands is none other than the haughty gentleman who sent her packing - and he's as handsome and arrogant as ever.
Happily Ever After?
Always the proper gentleman, Phillip will do anything to protect his family from scandal, and when Maria dares to move in right next door, he knows scandal will surely follow. She is as tempting as he remembered...and the more he sees her, the harder it is for Phillip to keep his own secret desire for her a secret....

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 118
One of Daphne Wade's guilty pleasures is to watch the Duke of Tremore as he works, shirtless, on the excavation site of his ducal estate. Anthony Courtland is by far the most exciting and handsome man she has ever known, and she dreams of one day being able to speak with him without getting tongue tied. Anthony, meanwhile, only sees her as a hard worker on his excavation team. He considers her a plain young lady and says so to a friend, unaware that Daphne is outside the library door, her heart shattering to pieces. So Daphne decides she will not be so silly any longer.

Another good listen
This is the 3rd book in the girl bachelor series and the quality is maintained. I purchased the audio version. It’s a good listen except for the American accents which are fairly horrible. Thank goodness the American parts are very small. Pronunciations leave a lot to be desired. Anyway the Phillip and Maria story is just as good as the others. I like that the Men in the series have no problem telling the women in their lives that they love them once they discover they do. Another abrupt ending but the first chapter in the next book is a nice bonus.

Male voices and American accents are horrible! Female British roles are well done but not American or male.

I'm enjoying this series of books. I'd give this story a 3.5, class difference story. Medium steam. Good narration.

He found his match
Being independent and strong is the theme for all the girl bachelors in this series. Knowing what she wants as a businesswoman and staying true to herself puts her at odds with the man from her past who hid his feelings for her since they were young. She is not going away and he can't deny his desire for her. Whitty and charming, this story keeps you entertained. These two are destined to make a love match.

excellent narrator annoying heroine
My pet peeve is characters who behave completely illogically, and the heroine in this novel does. The first half of this book is cute and interesting and well-written. Then the author writes a complete rip off of the Mr.Darcy proposal scene from Pride and Prejudice, and it goes downhill from there. Copying Jane Austen is never a good plan because you will always look so terrible by comparison. This heroine also is a cook. There is zero chance a cook would reject the proposal of a Marquess she has had a crush on since childhood or even one who was a total stranger in that era. So now I am just annoyed with this author and her inferior Elizabeth Bennett and her inferior Mr. Darcy. Alas.
