Four Weeks of Scandal

A Hazards of Dukes Novel

By: Megan Frampton

Narrated by: Justine Eyre

If you love the sparkle of Tessa Dare and the wit of Sarah MacLean, then you won’t want to miss this newest historical romance by Megan Frampton, who returns with a delicious story about a will in dispute, a four-week bargain, and a pretend engagement with romantic consequences.

It only takes one moment to cause a scandal...and four weeks to live it down!

Week one: Lovely, lively Octavia Holton arrives in the village, determined to claim her inheritance—the home she grew up in with her late father. Surely he meant for his daughter to have the property, and owning it means she could fix it up, sell it, and use the money to pay off her debts. But when she arrives, she discovers the house is also claimed—by one Gabriel Fallon.

Week two: Gabriel claims his father won the property in a bet, but he can’t bring himself to toss Octavia out on her very delightful derrière, so he makes her a four-week bargain: Together they’ll pretend to be engaged, all the while seeking out any will, letter, or document that proves who gets the ownership.

Weeks three and four: But that means togetherness...a lot of togetherness, and long days—and evenings—in each other’s company. The pair seems destined to “duke it out,” staking their claims...but it’s all too soon that they realize their rivalry might lead to something much more intimate. And suddenly four weeks seems like a long time. And yet not enough.

I hate Justin Eyre's voice!

I really don't like listening to anything that Justin Eyre narrates!!
I also really did not like at all Octavia! I could never figure out WHY Gabriel fell in love with her - she was a b_____! Unless he only liked her because she was so bossy during sex? He could not have liked her personality unless he was a wus! She was so irritating, bossy, and got them in many fixes! I did not care for the story, the characters, or especially the narrator!!

Too much sex, not enough story

This book dragged on with a lot of sex and not a lot of story.

I'm running out of adjectives to describe

Another great book, well worth a listen, Has all the elements one looks for I'm a good book. Meagan has a good book sense.
