A governess in jeopardy...and the marquis' son who goes undercover as a housemaid to protect her.

Lord Octavius Pryor leads a carefree and untroubled life, until the night he visits Vauxhall Gardens in the guise of a woman.

At Vauxhall, Octavius discovers that being a female is very different from being a man. Annoyingly different, unpleasantly different, and - when he encounters the lecherous Baron Rumpole - dangerously different.

Determined to teach the baron a lesson, Octavius infiltrates Rumpole's household, where he meets the woman of his dreams: Miss Toogood, governess to the baron's daughters.

Suddenly Octavius has three pressing tasks:

  1. To teach the baron to keep his yardstick in his breeches.
  2. To keep Miss Toogood safe.
  3. To convince her to marry him.

A word of caution: This novel is a bodice ripper, and I mean that quite literally. Bodices are ripped in this book - and not in a playful or sexy way. However, I promise you that all rippers of bodices receive their just desserts.

Unfortunately, I found this story tedious. The men come across too childish and there is not really enough content. An interesting idea about a man being a woman and admirable that he was trying to stop rape but found myself bored and it was a struggle to finish the book despite Rosayn Landor's excellent narration. Had to skip some chapters as they seemed pointless.

Definitely not a book I would recommend. But if you like to have your imagination stretched as far as it’s possible then you’ll enjoy it. I did not.

Fantasy and imagination in extreme

I love Rosalyn Landor as a narrator and listened to many books she has narrated, she makes them exiting and takes on different voices for male & female successfully. However l have not enjoyed this book & was not been able to finish it. Lacking a story line. The main men having a fairy godmother? Granting wishes?
Sorry not for me. Returned book 2 of this series as could not face anymore.

Not much of a story
