The Viscount and the Vixen

By: Lorraine Heath

Narrated by: Helen Lloyd

Love begets madness. Viscount Locksley watched it happen to his father after his cherished wife's death. But when his sire arranges to marry flame-haired fortune hunter Portia Gadstone, Locke is compelled to take drastic measures to stop the stunning beauty from taking advantage of the marquess. A marriage of mutual pleasure could be convenient, indeed, as long as inconvenient feelings don't interfere.

Desperation forced Portia to agree to marry a madman. The arrangement will offer the protection she needs. Or so she believes until the marquess' distractingly handsome son peruses the fine print...and takes his father's place!

Now the sedate - and, more importantly, secure - union Portia planned has been tossed in favor of one simmering with wicked temptation and potential heartbreak. Because as she begins to fall for her devilishly seductive husband, her dark secrets surface and threaten to ruin them both - unless Locke is willing to risk all and open his heart to love.

A nice addition to the series…

But, there were times that the plot and characters were unrealistic, annoying, and had hints of narcissism throughout,
Yet, it was a decent book added to this series.

Because This Is A Series

I like listening to serial novels. This is a series of 3 all about the life and loves of 4 boys/men who grew up as brothers but only 2 were blood related because they are twins. The Publisher's Summary gives a good description/synopsis of each story. I will only say that eac story held my interest from start to finish. However, I do wish the female narrator had the ability to make the female voices sound better, the male voices are okay because the narrator's voice is kinda deep to begin with. Nevertheless the storylines held my interest.

excellent

looked this one from beginning to end made me laugh more like this one please

So sweet

I read a previous review of this book with the reviewer stating that a) they didn’t like the book, b) that Portia’s previous partner wasn’t “that cruel. And actually loved her.”

Now that I’ve finished the book I have to say that this book was so sweet. Also, Portia’s ex WAS abusive, he wasn’t absolutely cruel. He wanted to kill their baby, gaslit her, lied to her, manipulated her and took advantage of her naivety and station. Some of yall need to require more from your relationships and increase your expectations, and then dip if you don’t receive those expectations.

Their relationship was so beautiful and so was the old man and how much he loved his wife who had died. It was fanciful and unrealistic how deeply they all felt for their partners and what not, but it was still a lovely story.

Always satisfying!

I liked the story so full of wisdom and love. Couldn’t put it down.
A listen for anyone who loves historical
romances though the love making is explicit.
Helen Lloyds voice is perfect and I can always distinguish between the female and male voices. A real talent for the different English dialects too.

Couldn’t stop listening!

It’s been a while since I have loved a book, this one is definitely one of my favorites! It’s shocked me, made me cry, and made me laugh out loud!!! This book is a MUST READ!!!

Spell binding

My interest was held from the beginning! Couldn't wait to get back to it whenever I had to put it down. Hated for it to end!

Loved this book!

This book is great from beginning to end. The narration is fantastic too. I highly recommend it.

Great romance

I loved both the hero and heroine. They were both very human with their faults and many wonderful qualifies.. They gave us all the hope for a happier future .The father was very enjoy able.

Lovely story

Out of the three books in the series, this was my favorite. I know it is said that the books can be read independently...I believe that it’s necessary to read the first two. There is so much “story” in the first two that leads up to this last book. You won’t be sorry.
