When He Was Wicked

De: Julia Quinn

Narrado por: Rosalyn Landor

In every life there is a turning point....

A moment so tremendous, so sharp and breathtaking, that one knows one's life will never be the same. For Michael Stirling, London's most infamous rake, that moment came the first time he laid eyes on Francesca Bridgerton. 

After a lifetime of chasing women, of smiling slyly as they chased him, of allowing himself to be caught but never permitting his heart to become engaged, he took one look at Francesca Bridgerton and fell so fast and hard into love it was a wonder he managed to remain standing. Unfortunately for Michael, however, Francesca's surname was to remain Bridgerton for only a mere 36 hours longer - the occasion of their meeting was, lamentably, a supper celebrating her imminent wedding to his cousin. 

But that was then.... Now Michael is the earl and Francesca is free, but still she thinks of him as nothing other than her dear friend and confidant. Michael dares not speak to her of his love...until one dangerous night, when she steps innocently into his arms and passion proves stronger than even the most wicked of secrets....

Too much repetition

While I enjoyed reading the Bridgerton series in the beginning, I became less interested as I continured to ready. I don't think these books should be read one right after the other. Very predictable from the very beginning, but that in itself isn't the issue.... every story is exactly the same with different characters. It got to the point where I had to listen 2x the speed during parts of the books brecuse I was so tired of listening to the same old thing, some things were just repeats from previous books. (word for word). This is a good series, but it could have been a great one.

Beautiful, raw and sexy!

I am finding it difficult to understand how one can read this novel and come away thinking Franny is gay or bi or whatever term we are using these days. The story is a masterpiece and I sympathized so much with the fact that I couldn’t have kids during my marriage either. I am going to be mourning Michael for years even after Bridgerton is over. Thank you Julia for creating this book series. Xoxo

Wicked indeed

This was a beautiful story. Although at times Francesca tried my patience and my nerves. My heart broke fr Micheal so many times while reading . I was so relieved when Francesca realized that it was okay for her to have happiness in her life. I must say the second epilogue was as intense for me as the first 24 chapters of the book☺️. Thank you for including it. I have throughly enjoyed the entire Bridgeton series

Spoiler Alert!

Loved the storyline, as I have all the books of this series. Only thing I wish that would have been different was that she would have borne John’s daughter. Just to have a piece of him still. But even without that the storyline is great!

I can't believe this one is my favorite!

Don't get me wrong I am in love with all the Bridgeton books. each character is so unique and lovely! but this one, is to me the best one! my second would be Sophia and Benedicts story. Franchesca story surprised me more than I would have expected and I loved every second of it! especially the second epilogue! just amazing!
