A roguish earl. A desperate lady. One scandal that could destroy them—or bind them forever.

Edward Hallworth, notorious for his charm and his disinterest in marriage, never meant to become a hero. But when a breathless young woman seizes his arm in Hyde Park, begging for protection, instinct and curiosity propel him into a storm of secrets. The lady in question, Miss Lydia Ashby, carries a past she cannot reveal and a pursuer who will stop at nothing.

Drawn together by circumstance and danger, Edward and Lydia agree to a reckless arrangement. One that will test his jaded heart and her fragile trust. But passion has a way of rewriting intentions, and soon the line between pretense and desire begins to blur.

A Reckless Arrangement, where rescue becomes temptation, and a single plea for help sparks a love neither expected.

Kate Dellow’s narration of “A Reckless Arrangement” is an absolute delight. Her calm, measured delivery perfectly suits the tone of this Regency romance, and draws you effortlessly into the story.

Whilst the main narration is steady and soothing, Dellow’s character work is equally good. Every voice feels distinct and authentic, and the character of Lydia in particular absolutely shines. Dellow brings warmth, vulnerability alongside strength, and real emotional depth to her performance, so that Lydia feels wonderfully alive, and you feel every bit of the anxiety of her ‘reckless arrangement’ with her!

Amanda Mariel’s charming story is beautifully complemented by Dellow’s nuanced performance. If you’re a fan of Jane Austen, the Bridgerton series, or simply love a well-narrated historical romance, this audiobook is an easy five stars. Highly recommended!

A delightful Regency romance, beautifully narrated by Dellow.

A swoon-worthy Bridgerton vibes story full of drama and heartfelt moments. Narrator did a fab job of performing multiple characters and really making you feel involved in the story, while not being over-the-top. Look forward to hearing more from both of these two.

This is one of my favourite genres and a new author and narrator to me. I absolutely loved it!

The narrator’s calm, gorgeous voice brought just the right tone and depth to the period piece and I couldn’t stop listening to it.

A new narrator on my ‘to follow’ list.
