A Libertine... Jeremy Greymont certainly qualifies. "Sex rough and women loose" is his credo - one he's always taken very seriously, with no deference whatsoever to the society into which he's been born. He's been perfectly content milling along through life on an existence of courtesans and fine Scotch whisky...that is until his grandfather lets him know he's out of time, and his station in life comes with duties attached. Jeremy must produce an heir - posthaste.
Summary
Thinking of her young son, Arabella dons the mask of Miss Noir for her first night at Mrs Silver's House of Pleasures and smiles prettily at the next gentleman who enters....
Dominic Furneaux, Duke of Arlesford, is stunned to see that the woman who shattered his heart has fallen so low. He offers her a way out - by making her his mistress!

First Time Reading This Author
Would you listen to Unmasking the Duke's Mistress again? Why?
I would listen again ... I enjoyed the story line. The narrator ... not so much.
What three words best describe Julia Franklin’s voice?
Irritating. Limited. Disappointing. I didn't think she had enough 'voices' for the characters. Especially hard to listen to the lead woman's voice.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The Duke's reaction when he learns the biggest secret. Sorry, more would be a spoiler.
