The Duke of Malmesbury’s daughters discover that passion can derail even the best-laid matrimonial plans.

Lady Cecily is known as the “Ice Princess” because of her cool blond beauty and her refusal to wed any of her several eligible suitors. She has no choice but to obey her father, the Duke, who wants Cecily to marry the one man who can assure the family’s social and financial positions: The arrogant and infuriating Viscount Ravenwood, who has been her enemy since childhood. A marriage of convenience is all she expects from their pairing - she has no idea that Ravenwood conceals a deep secret, or just how determined he will be to claim her heart.

Cecily’s sister, Lady Brittany, is relieved that she doesn’t have to take part in the husband hunt in London’s marriage mart - though as a duke’s daughter, she is considered a prime catch. Comfortably engaged to amiable Lord Anthony Faringdon, she knows that though they may not be a love match, she and Tony will get along just fine - that is, until she meets his best friend, the darkly handsome Marquess of Cheriton, whose eyes pierce her very soul. Brittany’s comfortable life and perfect plans will be overturned by her increasingly passionate feelings for the irresistibly charming Marquess.

An unrealistic portrayal of acceptable behaviour of what a Duke’s daughter would be able to get away with in the timeline.
Readable but unbelievable.

Great story line that gives a good glimpse of life in high society in the 1800’s
Far too much time spent describing attires and discussing bonnets and sashes, but overall not too bad at all

A satisfying listen

This book is not really for me but maybe it's just the thing for someone else. I do like the narrator.

Hmmm

NOT Georgette Heyer but pleasant. A discordant note is the constant harping on fathers and husbands. It may have been legally possible to a limited degree but it seems rather unlike the gentlemanly behaviour that the period demanded.
The narrator’s style of slight pauses in totally the wrong places is a little irritating, but she has a pleasant voice.

Pretty good stories. I suspect they might have been better read rather listened to. Some language and behaviours of characters were not suited to the period, and the narrator's pronunciation was off at times. Overall good.
