Summary

When Elizabeth Hotchkiss stumbles upon a copy of How to Marry a Marquis in her employer's library, she's convinced someone is playing a cruel joke. A guidebook to seduction might be just the thing she needs - and what harm could there be in taking a little peek?

Intrigued by the alluring young woman with the curious little rule book, James Sidwell, Marquis of Riverdale, decides that there is only one rule worth following - that Elizabeth marry her marquis.

A very engaging and thoroughly enjoyable read

I’ve listened to this on audible at least three times. An excellent and enjoyable listen. Well narrated which had me gripped right from the start. Good story line, I’m a true romantic so this story fed my addiction to a tee. So much so, that I’ve read further stories from Julia Quinn with the same narrator.

Great book not so keen on the performance

The book is one of Julia Quinn's best, however the performance of it here wasn't for me. The mispronunciation of Marquis didn't help and the voices of the two main characters didn't sound quite right.

Excellent narrator

Very funny beautiful well written storytelling escapism. What a surprise ending. The narrator's voice cleverly brings the characters to life. I am always amazed how she is able to use her voice for the male characters and make them sound so authentic and convincing. I have become a great fan of both the author and voice actor.

Predictable but very funny and entertaining

I must confess that I love the narration from Rosalyn Landor more than the stories by Julia Quinn, nevertheless How to Marry a Marquis is very enjoyable and entertaining despite of being a bit predictable. It is no literary masterpiece, but is very funny. Even though I guessed the whole plot almost from the first page, it still made chuckle many times. I listened to it in record time so enjoyable it was.

Great Book

One of my most favourite books by Julia Quinn, however the end is a little bit stretched and made me lose my patience a bit.

The best of her books to date

Loved the humour and loved James as a character not an arrogant fellow in any way shape or form. Elizabeth I really enjoyed having a little more…. Banter about her and lady Danbury really is such a wonderful character. This book made me smile so much. Definitely worth a read. Considering I hadn’t read how to catch an heiress (couldn’t see and English version with Rosalyn Landor) on that note, she really is so good at voices and telling the story so we’ll I’ve grown to get annoyed at any other voices on my audio books now. Anyway I’m going down a different road here, absolutely read this look!! I wish I could have had 10 more chapters but only because of selfish means!
