Narrator Carolyn Morris draws listeners into the historical romance of Henry, Duke of Torquil, and Irene Deverill. Henry is outraged that a columnist named Lady Truelove has encouraged his widowed mother to follow her passion for a painter. When he goes to confront Lady Truelove, Henry finds himself meeting publisher Irene Deverill. Morris helps listeners envision the world of the aristocracy that the characters inhabit. In addition to voicing the hero and heroine, Morris does an excellent job with the secondary characters—from the haughty tones of the duke’s relatives to the mischievous voices of the duke’s nephews. Listeners will find themselves rooting for Henry and Irene to overcome their differences and find love together. S.B. © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine
Dear Lady Truelove . . . I have fallen in love, truly and completely in love, for the first time. The man whom I hold in such passionate regard, however, is not of my station. He is a painter, a brilliant artist. Needless to say, my family would not approve . . .
Henry, Duke of Torquil, wouldn't be caught reading the wildly popular “Dear Lady Truelove” column, but when its advice causes his mother to embark on a scandalous elopement, an outraged Henry decides the author of this tripe must be stopped before she can ruin any more lives. Though Lady Truelove's identity is a closely guarded secret, Henry has reason to suspect the publisher of the notorious column, beautiful and provoking Irene Deverill, is also its author.
For Irene, it's easy to advise others to surrender to passion, but when she meets the Duke of Torquil, she soon learns that passion comes at a price. When one impulsive, spur-of-the-moment kiss pulls her into a scorching affair with Henry, it could destroy her beloved newspaper, her career, and her independence. But in the duke's arms, surrender is so, so sweet . . .
