“Shiveringly Gothic.”—New York Times Book Review

A PopSugar and BookBub Best Romance of 2022!

A London heiress rides out to the wilds of the English countryside to honor a marriage of convenience with a mysterious and reclusive stranger.

Tall, dark, and dour, the notorious Captain Jasper Blunt was once hailed a military hero, but tales abound of his bastard children and his haunted estate in Yorkshire. What he requires now is a rich wife to ornament his isolated ruin, and he has his sights set on the enchanting Julia Wychwood.

For Julia, an incurable romantic cursed with a crippling social anxiety, navigating a London ballroom is absolute torture. The only time Julia feels any degree of confidence is when she’s on her horse. Unfortunately, a young lady can’t spend the whole of her life in the saddle, so Julia makes an impetuous decision to take her future by the reins—she proposes to Captain Blunt.

In exchange for her dowry and her hand, Jasper must promise to grant her freedom to do as she pleases. To ride—and to read—as much as she likes without masculine interference. He readily agrees to her conditions, with one provision of his own: Julia is forbidden from going into the tower rooms of his estate and snooping around his affairs. But the more she learns of the beastly former hero, the more intrigued she becomes…

This is one I will read over and over again!

I will read and listen to this over and over again. Eagerly looking forward to the next one in series.

Great Story

Really enjoyed this story. First time with this author. Not my last time. Will be checking out her books from Kindle, library, or Audible. It’s always wonderful if you find an author you really, really like.

Excellent Story!

I loved this second book in the series, and devoured it. The narrators did a wonderful job, and added so much to the story.

Very enjoyable romance

I love Mimi Mathews, and this another good one in her typical style. Loved the female narrator, but did NOT care for the male narrator. I hate it when there are multiple narrators, which is often the case when the story is written from alternating perspectives, which is the case in this one. Every other chapter is from the female's perspective. I do not care for this method, as it throws me off when each character is performed by a different narrator. The male narrator made the heroin seem like she had a completely different personality than did the female narrator. I didn't even like the male narrator for the male hero's voice. The story was a little predictable but enjoyable.

My Favorite of the Four Horsewoman

Everyone loves a man who is more than he may seem. I read the book and bought the audiobook so that I could heard this story over and again because I loved it so much...BUT the performance was awful, the words are beautiful but it NEEDS Alex Wyndham to make it perfect.
