About this listen

A headstrong wallflower...

Lady Olivia Montague's betrothed has ignored her and their contract for years. In the meantime, she has decided to remain unwed, embracing the life of a spinster. The last thing she expects is for her betrothed to come storming back into her life.

A determined duke...

Following the death of his parents, William Breckenridge finds himself as the Duke of Thorne and in charge of his three younger sisters. He needs help in the form of a mother and guide for his siblings. Lucky for William, he's already betrothed. All he need do is collect his future duchess.

An unstoppable love...

William and Olivia engage in a battle of wills, but the more she resists and he pursues, the more their passions flare. Once the heart is engaged, resistance becomes difficult, but will they give into happily ever after?

This is a short love story where Lady Olivia, because she has been totally ignored by her betrothed, William, Duke of Thorne, decides that she wants to get him to break the betrothal and tries to concoct ways of disgusting him so that he does so.
I must admit that there is a bit of underlying sense of humor showing through and of course William only realizes that he in fact loves her and can't do without her in his life when it is almost too late.
I listened to the audiobook version and my review above is voluntary and unbiased.

A story of a long (almost forgotten) betrothal between Lady Olivia and Duke William. It started off with the Duke's unromantic claim for his bride and the suspicious/unrelenting fiancee. It was a sweet romance, with a self-sacrificing theme, which could have easily resolved by the right statement.

Enjoyed the audiobook version as you can feel the intensity of their feelings. I recommend enjoying this story

William and Olivia were betrothed years ago. Since then William has ignored Olivia, and she is happy with the freedom of a spinster. When William’s circumstances change, he needs a wife, and comes to claim Olivia. She begs him to release her from their betrothal, but he reuses. What results is a (very humorous) contest of wills, as William pursues his claim, and Olivia tries everything she can (without ruining herself) to convince William she is unsuitable. Will they ever see eye-to-eye and reach an understanding? Could love possibly bloom? I love this story and these two characters. It was fun to watch them test and challenge each other.

The narration was very good and really showcased the stubborn nature of both characters. The narrator’s voice was very pleasant to listen too.

I received a free copy of the audiobook and am voluntarily leaving this honest review.
