Summary
Top Ten Most Heartwarming Reads by Red Magazine.
Lady Penelope cares for all creatures. Gabriel Duke cares for no one. Can they care for each other?
Wealthy and ruthless, Gabriel Duke had to fight his way from the lowliest slums to the pinnacle of high society—and now, with a reputation as the ‘Duke of Ruin’, he wants to get even.
Loyal and passionate, Lady Penelope Campion never met a lost or wounded creature she wouldn’t take into her home and her heart. When her imposing—and attractive—new neighbour demands she remove her animals, Penny resists his demand and makes a counter-offer. She will part with her precious charges, if he can find them loving homes!
Rising to the challenge, Gabriel does not expect such a simple task to result in intimacy with Penny and soon he finds this spirited spinster is not the push-over he thought. But Gabe is not the only one with a past he’d rather forget. And if Penny is intent on saving Gabe, perhaps he might just need to save her first.

A good escapist read
I do listen to a range of books and at the
Moment I am working my way through these with some delight. Partly because the narrator is excellent and the story is not so predictable. There is some good links to other books without having to read them all but it’s nice to hear the other characters

Best narration
Is Tessa Dare always this funny, and I’m only noticing because Mary Jane Wells is such a good narrator? Penny and Gabriel are perfect for each other — this is worth a listen

seductive, sweet and so funny
Really enjoyed it, laughed out loud. totally unbelievable, total escapism, total appreciation! I also find Mary Jane's Wells performance adds to the book. The way she reads is both seductive and humorous.
Escapism for a working mum and chose to give up sleep to finish. thank you.

Lovely Listen!
I can't remember how I found this book and author but I wish I had sooner.
I adore historical romances and this one had extra laughs and spice whilst underneath the story was expertly woven.
The narrator did an outstanding job and I can still hear the parrot in my head.
