Will a rake's wicked ways lead the lady astray?

Andrew Carrington, Earl of Bellingham, believes in being a gentleman, whether it's fishing a soggy stranger out of the Thames or assisting a fetching lady into his bed. If the stranger becomes a friend and the lady a mistress, all the better. He certainly welcomes the opportunity to help Laura Davenport, a dazzling young widow with a rebellious stepson. Her gratitude, he hopes, will take an amorous form. But from the moment he sets foot in her drawing room, he gets far more than he bargained for.

It was a moment of desperation. On the brink of losing her stepson, Laura turned to the notorious Lord Bellingham for help. Suddenly, she, a vicar's daughter, is in the precarious position of resisting his tantalizing advances. How Bell earned his wicked reputation is clear; the surprise is how much more there is to him than the gossip sheets could possibly reveal. Now every moment with this dangerously desirable man puts Laura's good name at risk - and promises pleasure unlike any she has ever known....

Reseñas de la Crítica

"4 1/2 stars! TOP PICK! Dreiling's first book in the Sinful Scoundrel's series is wonderful! Rife with the Regancy's penchant for gossip, scandal and matchmaking, What a Wicked Earl Wants is a delightful romance featuring a rakish hero, an innocent widow, corrupt villains and a secondary cast of characters who add dimension, wit and tenderness to the plot. Readers will find this a real pleasure to savor." ( RT Book Reviews)

This is one of the best books I have listened to in almost a year and I listen to about 2-3 a week!
The characters in this book actually have conversations, there is little misunderstandings between the two of them (at least not the man made ones that leave you smashing you head in)!
There is an evil character but he doesn't take up much time and doesn't turn the whole last half of the book into fighting about him!
The feelings are real, they grow together in them and there is moderate sex scenes that are pleasant and sometimes funny.
The whole book has witty remarks and it is just a wonderfully written romance novel as I really don't like that SO MANY historical romance books have either so much war scenes or such that take away from the romance between the two main characters lives!
I read romance for romance...I am not a man who loves to read about battles, evil-evil villains doing bad things constantly, I really wish more authors would write in this style! Bravo Vicky and Priscilla it was outstanding!

Wonderful characters! Fantastic book!

Good dialogue between characters made this particularly good. Sex was spicey enough but infrequent. I didn't miss it because the story line was quite engaging. Narration was good, especially true as there are quite a few characters in this book.

great dialogue and character development

This is sweet story with clean to nearly void of sex scenes, which is okay by me. The storylines are okay, held my interest throughout. my only complaint (if can call it a complaint) is the narration. The narrator has a nice sounding voice but doesn't use much variation to distinguish male voices from females. And do not use any emotions. Even so I can hear the opposite argument which says that this is a calm even kneeled religious/Bible based story or a story based around religious beliefs .(such as do unto others as... etc etc) and there is no raised voices or a wide range of emotions in this story... And the listener is NOT hit over the head with too much religious speak! It's a Good story to listen to in between those Regency Romances that have weak storylines or those with too much angst or too much back and forth of "he loves me he loves me not" stupid stuff...

Kinda Sorta Okay

This was a good simply story. Yes, there was a little external conflict from a mean Uncle, but it never felt real. It was rarely brought up as any real danger. It was mostly an irritant in the far-away background. The story focuses on the relationship between the MCs. There are a few special moments but I never believed the MMC fell in love. Still, in the end there is a HEA that tied it all up and drove home the love match confirmation.

The narration was exceptional! The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 was that I found it the story repeated a large amount of information... u necessarily. I only give 5 stars when I have a strong emotion at the outcome, which I did not. All in all I do recommend the book as a nice little Regency Romance.

Good Story!

This was entertaining. I liked the story until the last part of the book. At that point it fell apart. The unfolding of the uncle/guardian storyline was extremely disappointing as was the ending. I also found the narrator didn't differentiate between voices enough - even between men and women. I'd have to give this a 3.5.

Disappointing ending

A talented author with interesting characters and smooth flow of words. I like nice characters and it is here in abundance.
However, the intimate scenes were ridiculous (and hilarious). The author seems to have had a checklist of sexual techniques and she checked each item off at a very rapid pace in a robotic style. So, if you’re looking for a sensual description, this is not it.
One complaint in general: MUST the “confession” of “his demons” be a prelude to love? In this book, it was heavy-handed, but I’ve seen it in many other books too.
Perhaps this overused trope could be modified or dropped.
