About this listen

London, 1820

The mission did not go quite as Robert Ware—known in society as the new Earl of Kirkland—planned. A spy in the service of His Majesty, Robert is a "guest" at a masquerade party as he retrieves vital information for a murder investigation. Until he's quite unexpectedly interrupted by an exquisite, masked woman with glittering green eyes. And a pistol she has cocked and aimed right at him . . .

Lady Sophia Merrill has defiantly taken up justice's shining sword, determined to expose the brigand who murdered her eccentric but brilliant father, and stole his latest invention. Now she must masquerade as Robert's betrothed in order to infiltrate the Inventor's Society and find the killer. But the undeniable potent attraction between them not only imperils the investigation, but Sophia's reputation . . . and both of their lives.

Contains mature themes.

The worse bit, indicating I should abandon this one, was when a Marquis' daughter is introduced to the Earl's butler.
Never. Even between the ton the man would be introduced to her first unless he was royal.
But worse to come.
The Lady then curtsied to the butler. Who did not bow.
Also the too frequent mentions of her belly. Not a word any Lady would think to use.
And a master of ceremonies at a private ball.
Then another character who traced their bloodline back to Elizabeth I. Who anyone should know had no children, and was the last of the Tudor rulers, ie no bloodline could possibly be traced to her.

And the narrator's accents wandered. At times with a hint of American.

poor accents and major errors
