About this listen

Verity Beaumont has suffered domineering men most of her life; first with her father and then with her husband. Free from both men, she has finally found peace even meeting a kind and hard-working gentleman who just might be the perfect father her young son so desperately needs. But as she dares look to the future, her carefully ordered world is shattered when her dead husband returns.

After six years away, Rufus Beaumont, Duke of Blackburn, returns to claim his place and protect his family. Only, the life he finds is not the life he left, and he must convince his wife that their marriage is worth fighting for; that he’s not the man he was.

When the truth about what happened to him leaks out, he must prove that not everything about him, especially his love for her, is a lie.

Definitely an big improvement on the last book. The story still had set scenarios, but through still predictable, they held together. Considering the experiences she had with her husband, it was surprising how easily she succumb. Still gratuitous sex is this author's stable. No matter how weak the storyline the sex prevails. This storyline manages to hold it's own and is believable. I started with this book and lived to regret buy others in the series. I have never been tempted to buy the whole series, so everything has been down hill after this book.

Believable.
