Acerca de esta escucha

His kiss left her flushed and disconcerted - perhaps men were best avoided after all.…

The Earl of Tredair has had his fill of balls, routs, and silly misses, and he despairs of finding someone extraordinary - that is, until he meets Miss Fanny Waverley.

Most unique and intriguing, Fanny and her two sisters are the adopted daughters of the reclusive bluestocking Madame Waverley. They have been raised as her disciples to spread the word of women's rights and to encourage poor oppressed females to stand up against the iniquities of the male sex.

The beautiful and farouche Miss Fanny, however, finds it quite difficult to think of all men as cruel and lustful beasts - how can she when she finds herself longing to kiss one of the most hated of his breed?

the reader was good except for the voice for frederica. the story was good except for the male lead sometimes not treating the female lead well, which is common for Chesney's books .

3.5 stars

This was a a light listen while I did housework. I enjoyed the characters. This is my first story involving the " blue stocking" ladies of this era. It was interesting, cute and funny.

Cute & light romantic listen

Marion Chesney is an extremely prolific author, writing both period and contemporary novels and series of mystery and romance under several names, including Marion Chesney and, probably best known, M.C. Beaton. I have read books from several of her series, including contemporary, Regency, Victorian and Edwardian mysteries. I have enjoyed almost all of them. They are written with a light hand, enjoyable without serious pretension.

I have especially enjoyed her Edwardian series and the Hamish MacBeth series. So when I saw a listing for a Chesney Victorian series, I anticipated the pleasure I had experienced in the Edwardian series. Alas, despite the intriguing underlying concept (a set of sisters who have been raised in, and have adopted, the ideals and goals of women's rights, especially women's suffrage), the book felt flat and uninteresting to me.

This book was missing all the light, humorous touches which I had come to expect from Chesney. The characters, especially the sisters, seemed dull and lifeless despite the fact that the plot contained more than a little action. Finally, many of the occurrences in the plot were simply not believable, and no amount of humor could cover up or diminish that fact. Despite the best efforts of narrator Vanessa Benjamin, she could not give this book enough life to make it enjoyable.

I will continue to read other Chesney books for those times when I just want a light, humorous break, but I doubt that I will continue this Waverly Women series.


Not up to Chesney's Usual Standards

If you are in a mood for not overly complicated, lighthearted romance, I would highly recommend this book.

It just absolutely STOPS. Getting ready for another chapter but the book ends. Enjoyed what was written and I’m guessing a new book follows.

Enjoyed it, but

I really enjoyed the plot of this story. It was an interesting story set in regency times. No profanity which I truly appreciate. To me a lot of vulgarity shows a lack of vocabulary and imagination.

The intelligence of Fanny.

Excellent Read

I like this author sometimes, some of her books have too much sex. However, this one didn’t have descriptive scenes although they “have sex” throughout the book. But it is PG.

Good story and narration.
