About this listen

 In this delightful new Regency romance from New York Times bestseller Candace Camp, a feisty commoner and a ruthless aristocrat spar in all the right ways.

Noelle Rutherford would do anything for her young son, Gil. A fiercely independent woman recently widowed, Noelle is determined to raise Gil alone. After all, her late husband Adam Rutherford married her for love, which infuriated his aristocratic family. Gil is Noelle’s whole world, and she will not have him wrested from her by haughty nobles.

But she may not have a choice unless she’s prepared to run.

One awful night, Noelle is confronted by Carlisle Thorne, a handsome yet severe, irascible man sent by the Rutherfords. Noelle is horrified when Carlisle offers her money in exchange for taking Gil to be raised at the Rutherford estate, Stonecliffe. Knowing that Carlisle will use any means necessary to take her son from her, Noelle flees, Gil at her side.

Thus begins an epic rivalry that spans five years—a battle of wits between two unforgettable characters bound together by fate and fortune. However, when danger threatens, these enemies must come together to protect what matters most… even if it means losing their hearts.

A unique - not merely unusual, but unique (among romances) - plot. That's what Candace specialises in! As always, very well written, convincingly English; and the narration is as good as always.

Another unusual and excellent plot

Having spent five years running away from the hero, who is trying to steal her son. He also thinks she is a lady of very loose morals and money wrapper.
Having laid out the main story, the author now has to Contrived to get them into bed. This is done by having them convort around the country. Without maid or chaperon, ignoring all conventions of the time. Naturally the hero and heroine are overcome by passion and there are lots of "should I, shouldn't I". I found it a bit incestuous. New characters are randomly introduced, setting them up for further books. The is danger running through the story, but it is another set pieces. Fitted in the gaps of passion. I found it tedious and keep fast forwarding.
