Resumen del Editor

They call him the Duke of Ruin.

To an undaunted wallflower, he's just the beast next door.

Wealthy and ruthless, Gabriel Duke clawed his way from the lowliest slums to the pinnacle of high society - and now he wants to get even.

Loyal and passionate, Lady Penelope Campion never met a lost or wounded creature she wouldn’t take into her home and her heart.

When her imposing - and attractive - new neighbor demands she clear out the rescued animals, Penny sets him a challenge. She will part with her precious charges, if he can find them loving homes.

Done, Gabriel says. How hard can it be to find homes for a few kittens?

And a two-legged dog.

And a foul-mouthed parrot.

And a goat, an otter, a hedgehog....

Easier said than done, for a cold-blooded bastard who wouldn’t know a loving home from a workhouse. Soon, he’s covered in cat hair, knee-deep in adorable, and bewitched by a shyly pretty spinster who defies his every attempt to resist. Now she’s set her mind and heart on saving him.

Not if he ruins her first.

Tessa Dare fun

Funny, great dialogue, stellar narration, could have done with shorter sex scenes in my opinion, otherwise, very enjoyable.

Wonderful performance

I loved this book! The narrator did a wonderful job with not only all the characters but a talking parrot too! Such a fun read! If you love historical romances, this one will certainly tick all the boxes!

so so narration.

The story was decent but the narrator's men's voice overs was lacking. Couldn't stand another minute of this narrator.

Oh my WORD!!!!

Where has Tessa Dare been all my life?!!! This was... I can’t... Just buy this book.

I am utterly charmed. I think I need to go buy this book in paper form just so I can cuddle it to my chest and spin around in circles with it while I squeal in delight. I’m serious. I loved this so much I wish I could hug it.

I would also like to hug Mary Jane Wells because she deserves it for this performance. Also a high five. And a bonus paycheck. And maybe a flock of sheep, as soon as they are out of quarantine. But maybe not a sham sandwich.

LOVED THE HERO! Bad men are so fun.

Witty and light hearted fun. Good villian; you really hate him, but did not make the story dark. Brava!

Very original

It was a fun and original tale.

The animals though, that was funny and endearing.

The narrator was Fantastic!! She really brought the characters to life. Her voice is very melodious, you could listen to her for days and never weary.

😊

Thank you so much, I love how she narrated the story, so precise and clear. Perfect

I love this series.

This one had less comedy, but more meat to the plot. It also didn’t fit the formula in a delightful way. It didn’t end at all like I thought it would.

The best

Definitely the best of this series. I love penny and Gabriel. For the fault finders I say this. Don’t try to read reality into the story. It’s a sweet love story and one of my favorite books of any kind or any time and I have read a bunch of them in my 78 years.

A Humorous Delight!

This is what I hope all books to be, a complete joy to listen to. I found myself laughing out loud often. I loved and was rooting for the H & h. The animals lead to much of the humor. Tessa Dare is a marvel at telling a well written, intriguing story.
