About this listen
Desperately seeking a fiance...
Miss Sarah Battersby is in dire need of a man, preferably one skilled at deception. Upon her father's death, she will be left with no home and nary a penny. With time running out, she must either accept the proposal of a man she loathes or stall long enough to secure a teaching position by telling one teensy, trifling lie - that she is promised to someone else...who doesn't technically exist.
But Sarah refuses to be defeated by insignificant details. The answer lies in finding the right man for the job. As luck would have it, she has stumbled on just the candidate...though he could use a little patching up.
Desperately seeking a refuge...
Where Lord Colin Lacey goes, trouble follows - even when he attempts to do right. Tortured and hunted by a brutal criminal, he is rescued from death's door by the stubborn, oddly fetching Miss Battersby. In return, she asks one small favor: pretend to be her fiance. Temporarily, of course.
With danger nipping his heels, he knows it is wrong to want her, wrong to agree to her terms. But when has Colin Lacey ever done the sensible thing?
Desperately seeking a love to conquer all...
As lies turn to longing, and longing to something deeper, they realize it will take more than passion to see them through the danger to come. They will need a plan. They will need family. Above all, they will need a love strong enough to steel a lady's resolve and transform a scoundrel's heart.
Contains mature themes.

His requirements are precise: she must be capable of mothering the wild twin daughters who have unexpectedly appeared in his life, and so must possess the patience of a saint and the understanding of an angel. Better still if she is plain and has no expectation of a true marriage. He is not about to reform his ways.

But Adam, an unrepentant rake, would only renounce a life of scandalous pleasure for one woman, the woman he's lusted after - and loved - for years. It's rather unfortunate, then, that Miss Charlotte Greene, a shy but beautiful blonde of impeccable manners and breeding, would never consent to be the blushing bride of a rogue...or so he thinks. But Charlotte believes that the earl, the only man whose touch leaves her trembling with desire, would never want a woman like her.

I was excited to get back into this author’s Rescued from Ruin world. I've enjoyed her writing and the characters she's created. So far, all of the stories are interconnected, but this one continued soon after the previous book (The Truth About Cads and Dukes) ended. The main characters of that book got their happy ending, but the fate of the hero's brother was in question. There began Colin's story.
While Colin had committed some reprehensible acts in the previous books, the author still managed to evoke empathy for his character. It was apparent he was emotionally scarred and seeking solace in alcohol, gambling and debauchery. His downfall was desperate and sad, which made his redemption story gratifying. Colin's romance with Sarah wasn't as appealing as the previous books, but I still enjoyed it and their story arc. Sarah's relationship with her family, but especially her father was sweet and emotional. Along with the romance, Colin's troubles and a ruthless suitor of Sarah's also added an exciting dose of suspense. I enjoyed seeing Colin get his happy ending, as well as some reconciliation within his family.

Nicky finally gets his story. Good.
Awesome but it gets a bit maudlin for a chapter when he won’t let go of guilt and avoid a his cherished wife. Though it’s probably the way a guy used to guilt might feel. Apparently a man wants to protect, provide and take care of wife, it’s a fever in the head reaction that leads to extreme devotion. The
Fantasy fiction I need right now.

Colin Redeemed! Another Great Story in The Series
Colin Lacey, you bad, bad man. The younger brother we hated in the other books is found near death by our heroine, school marm Miss Sarah Battersby. All the rest of the Clyde Lacey house family and friends are here.
Sexy hot but it's Mary Sarah Agliotta that brings these characters to life. I love her!
I've listened and/or read all of Elisa Braden's books and am so glad when Mary Sarah Agliotta is her narrator.
And Sophie Darling's. I seek out MS for her Regency reads. Love this team!

Exciting End To an excellent series
I had no idea how Elisa Braden was going to redeem Colin Lacey but done how she did and I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. Edge of your seat moments, extremely steamy moments balanced by humour made this book one I highly recommend.

Enjoyable
This is the third in the series. I didn’t think I would like Colin but it was pretty good. Author could have developed why Hero fell in love with Heroine. Wasn’t quite as clear once they were in London. Slightly thin on development of the relationship. I liked the first one the best and the second better than this one. I might go for the fourth but I don’t think they have it on escape and not sure I want to use a credit. I might though. If you have escape, this third one is worth a listen. Not sure I would use a credit for it.

Too much whispering. Too low volume.
If you have any difficulty hearing avoid this. Well worth the read though. Great story but so hard to hear.
