Historia
Prudence Shackleford had not expected to be a spinster at three and twenty, but unfortunately, as she'd quickly discovered, very few men were prepared to tolerate either her ghoulish sense of humour, or her macabre taste in literature. And those were the ones she'd got as far as holding a conversation with. When invited to London by the Duke and Duchess of Blackmore to witness the Coronation of King George IV, she was equal parts horrified and intrigued. Especially after a chance meeting with a Bow Street Runner on the trail of conspirators it was feared were planning to murder the King.

Cute story-awful male narrator
Revisado: 12-04-24
I couldn't take the male narrator (mainly does the voice for the Rev but sometimes butchers the female characters as well). Think I'll just read the final book in the series bc I can't take another narration by him. It ruins the entire story-I end up fast forwarding through his narration.

Decent story, unlikable female lead
Revisado: 11-23-24
Narration was solid and the story was good. It was really hard to like the female lead. She was mean and self-righteous. The ending made her seem spoiled and hypocritical.

Historia
The Home Office has asked Sir Bertrand Thorndike to head an investigation into stolen royal jewels. It's the perfect chance for Bertie to step out of his brother's long shadow. His superior, The Duke of Haverly, has a plan that makes him balk: in order to sell his cover, Bertie must play the part of a man looking for love, ready to reform his rakish ways. The duke is willing to let Bertie name his own investigative team, but his recommendation that the team include Philippa Cashel has Bertie on his guard. Does the duke-known for his behind-the-scenes machinations-have an ulterior motive?

Very religious and preachy
Revisado: 11-19-24
The story would be really good if the author wasn't always trying to insert religion and pontificating. The character of Charlotte in particular is nauseating. The amount of gaslighting she does of her half sister is infuriating. I forwarded through the preaching and gratuitous religious stuff and the story was better for it. Won't be getting another book from this author.

Historia
Intelligent. Kind. Must like children. Passable looks. A man of means. Must make us laugh . . . For Lady Alice Carpenter, these are some of the "musts" on the checklist compiled with her sisters as they husband-hunt among the ton. Yet when she encounters a striking nobleman on her morning ride in Hyde Park, Alice soon tallies another list of first impressions . . . Shallow. Flirtatious. Without seriousness of purpose. Impossible to avoid.

Decent Story
Revisado: 07-01-24
The female lead makes it very hard to like her-she's judgmental and a snob. I actually was rooting for the lead male to find someone else and leave her with the superficial rouge. I liked the plot overall but the characters aren't well written.

Nice story, awful narrator
Revisado: 06-28-24
Well written story overall though the female character was a bit over written to the point that she was unlikable. Of course it may just have been the narration which was particularly dreadful. I've heard better acting during middle school plays.

Rather Unlikable Female Main
Revisado: 06-16-24
Story had great potential but it was so hard to like the main female character. Her father repeatedly caused death and destruction but she keeps making excuses and choosing him over the husband who is going above and beyond to make her happy (and whose brother was murdered by her father). Such an unsatisfying ending as the murderer gets away with it and doesn't actually have to face the consequences of his actions. He sold his daughter and then almost killed her. Oh and hiding really important info until he gets a payout. Yeah not a fan

Historia
When Faith Shackleford found herself in the unenviable position of having to accompany her irascible father to convalesce in the genteel seaside town of Torquay, she envisioned three months of wearying monotony. She certainly wasn't expecting to be intrigued by the forlorn empty house situated next to their own elegant villa, especially when she discovered it belonged to a handsome captain in the Royal Navy who was currently away at sea. Unfortunately, she never imagined that fascination might cost her her life.

Awful male narrator, nice story
Revisado: 06-13-24
Find a new male narrator. He is absolutely awful and ruins the story. Read the book and I think it will be enjoyable.

Historia
Reverend Shackleford was at a loss. He'd truly believed that in marrying his eldest daughter Grace to an extremely wealthy peer of the realm, his problems would be over. But as the Reverend was now beginning to realize, it wasn't sufficient to have a wealthy Duke in the family if the daughter he was trying to marry off had the manners of a stable hand. And to Reverend Shackleford's knowledge, his second eldest daughter Temperance is the exact opposite of her name and a harpy to boot.

Woman Lies and Is Rewarded
Revisado: 01-17-24
I really disliked the 'heroine.' The investigator piece was poorly done-like it was an afterthought to try and make it more interesting. The woman lied over and over and over again so the man apologizes and she continues to punish him. I wanted the Duke to leave and find a more worthy woman.

Worst female lead ever
Revisado: 12-26-23
Narration: Simon Prebble is not my fav but he was particularly bad with this narration. He gave an Indian accent to the English male lead character and that irked me.
Lead female character was shallow and immature. While the male lead is trying to stop a fanatical cult that is responsible for heinous acts against innocent civilians so of course she decides to to stalk him and attach herself. She then proceeds to complain that he isn't giving her enough attention to determine if he is the 'one.' Dozens of assassins are chasing them and nearly kill then but she's upset bc he isn't kissing her enough. In general I don't love the women in SL's books-they aren't bold, they are spoiled and selfish. I like the overall story...wish the male lead had pushed female lead overboard
