Now on to what I thought of it
First off like always a big thank you to the thank you to the publisher Hachette Audio's, the author Manda Collins , well as to Nita Basu and Jasmine Normall for gifted me it. And for introducing me to not only a new series , but also a new author and narrator , and I can't wait to read and listing to more of their stores together . The story was delightfully witty, romantic, and entertaining though out , and had me laughing at times that I had to hit the pause button, and then after a few minutes I could once again listing to more of the story. I loved how the narrator voice fit the story and how she just give it and the characters the bit more of spunk that helped the main characters play off of one of other.

England, 1867: As half of the writing duo behind England’s most infamous crime column, Miss Caroline Hardcastle has quite the scandalous reputation. It may have cost her a fiancé, but she would much rather bring attention to crimes against those ignored by society than worry about what the ton thinks of her.

After Caro’s dear friend is kidnapped, however, she has no choice but to work with Lord Valentine Thorn, the same man who broke her heart. Worse, when her actions put her father’s business at risk, a marriage of convenience may be her only solution . . . but can she trust Val to stand by her? Or will their past repeat itself?

Val—the new Viscount Wrackham—is in an untenable position: His father is demanding he find a respectable bride to secure the succession. Yet the only woman he’s ever loved, Miss Caroline Hardcastle, is notorious for behaving improperly. And she’s never forgiven him for his youthful transgressions, missteps made in the name of familial duty, but ones he still regrets to this day.

As they grow closer to unmasking the culprit, Val sees an opportunity to show Caro he’s a changed man. But can he convince her to give their love a second chance—before death does them part?
