Someone to Care

By: Mary Balogh

Narrated by: Rosalyn Landor

Once the Countess of Riverdale, Viola Kingsley throws all caution to the wind when adventure calls in the form of a handsome aristocrat....

Two years after the death of the Earl of Riverdale, his family has overcome the shame of being stripped of their titles and fortune - except for his onetime countess, Viola. With her children grown and herself no longer part of the social whirl of the ton, she is uncertain where to look for happiness - until quite by accident her path crosses once again with that of the Marquess of Dorchester, Marcel Lamarr.

Marcel Lamarr has been a notorious womanizer since the death of his wife nearly 20 years earlier. Viola caught his eye when she herself was a young mother, but she evaded his seduction at the time. A prize that eluded him before, she is all the more irresistible to him now although he is surprised to discover that she is as eager now for the excitement he offers as he is himself.

When the two defy convention and run away together, they discover that the ties of respectability are not so easily severed, and pleasure can ensnare you when you least expect it....

Disappointed

I have been enjoying this series until this book. First half was great but with the miscommunication between the main characters that stretched on for chapters, the second half dragged.

Lusty turns to Be Love and Care

Viola. (formar countless) flees loving family ,
to free herself from what seems smothering .
to go for a lustful,fling,Than she discovers what
she desires is to love and and be loved . and cated about The one , who she has t he fling with the Margquis 'of Dorchester ,They flee for a Trieste
than facing both families, declares their betrothe
Is this a best or true love ,Does Viola go on ,with
agree to what she believes is honorable but not true
Having victim of l,infidelity ,suffrering in a marriage
that's bigamous , Or does she does she b flee !
and keep fleeing,?
Or when and if does find someone to be loved and cared about and can she do the same?
I believe the story was good ,once I skipped over all
the lust ful scenes .That is ,a blessing with audable
You can navigate ,so you can avoid immoral lluust
and skip that to find the actual story

Another great love story by Many Balogh

I just can say that I love the Wescot series so much!!
And the performance of Rosalyn Landor is perfect!!

It’s a great series

Needed to get accustomed to the accents, but thoroughly enjoyed each book so far. The characters are relatable even though the setting is turn of the century… I love it

Survivors meet the Hathaways ( Lisa Kleypas)

Survivors meet the Hathaways ( Lisa Kleypas). I am thoroughly enjoying this Westcott series. Balogh explores the trauma and healing as in the Survivor series and marries it to the a tactful and endearing humor of large families reminiscent of the Hathaways. As always, her skill of designing romance and coupling with believable couples with real conversations is superb.

Needed time to get to like the main characters.

The hero is shallow and hard to like when the story begins. It took about four chapters to warm to him. The poor heroin has been through enough from her first husband that you wonder what she sees in Marcel.

Great series

Have enjoyed the story of each family member so far. I will continue until last book.

Always great!

Love all about this author, the story & narration! Sweet story of love later in life!

Wonderful

A really wonderful story that continues a family saga . A must if you have enjoyed other books in the series.

Viola!

Maybe, It’s because I identify with Viola that I enjoyed this so much. Too often, women of age are passed over. A man and younger woman is accepted but the reverse is shocking and she would be labeled a cougar. Very unfair as the playing field for older ladies is limited before the courting starts.

Ms Balogh is slightly winded but I do believe it’s purposely done to identify the time period. It’s so easy to imagine yourself standing by the cliff side.

Overall, very pleasing.
