About this listen

His future was set until a thief stole his heart.

All of Clyde's Corner, Montana, knows local dandy Chris Ramsey will marry Trix Stubben, young widow and heir to the richest ranch in the area. But one woman isn't too keen on the idea. Mabe Crassen wants to get her hands on that ranch, so she sets her older son to court Trix, and her younger son, Jeremy, to distract Chris and lure him astray.

Jeremy Crassen thinks his mother's scheme is crazy. But he wants desperately to go off to college, which Mabe will agree to - if he seduces Chris. How will shy, virginal, secretly gay Jeremy attract Chris, who seems determined to do the right thing and marry Trix? Jeremy can't compete with a rich female widow. Or can he?

Is there anything you would change about this book?

I probably would have enjoyed this book if I had read it - the story was entertaining enough and I usually like Eli Easton's books. The narrator spoiled it for me though - he was acceptable with the ongoing narrative but his voices and accents were really awful.

Any additional comments?

If I hadn't just returned another book I would have returned this one after the first half hour. I certainly won't listen to it again, and it became more a task to finish it than something I looked forward to. As I said, the story was a good one, and I just wish I'd bought the kindle version instead of the audiobook.

Ok but not memorable

The Stolen Suitor is the second book in the Clyde's Corner series, and one of my favorites in the series. The story, at first, seems pretty straightforward (if a bit Shakespearean): plotting mother sets her son up to marry the rich widow and uses younger son to be the distraction. However, the story becomes so much more than that simple setup, and Eli Easton creates an emotional complexity that I did not expect but really loved. Even secondary characters are well developed and we get to see situations through their eyes. There are some angsty and tense moments, but the romance and happy ending soothes away that pain. I adored this story and enjoyed it immensely.
