After years of escaping etiquette lessons in favor of the stables, Christine Devon's grand debut in London is only weeks away, though her deportment lacks the sophisticated polish she needs to achieve her goals of a lofty marriage.

But during his time away, the estate's finances have dwindled to almost nothing. A chance meeting between them may solve both their problems.

Story
Lord Nathaniel Harte, the disagreeable duke of Beswick, spends his days smashing porcelain, antagonizing his servants, and snarling at anyone who gets too close. With a ruined face like his, it's hard to like much about the world - especially smart-mouthed harpies (with lips better suited to kissing than speaking) who brave his castle with indecent proposals. But Lady Astrid Everleigh will stop at nothing to see her younger sister safe from a notorious scoundrel, even if it means offering herself up on a silver platter to the forbidding Beast of Beswick himself.

When the scandal sheet reports a sighting of Nicolas Ives climbing out the chamber windows of a house party, Maryann does the unthinkable.

Story
Life for Victoria Lacey should be perfect. And it is - perfectly boring. Agree to marry a lord who has yet to inspire a single, solitary tingle? Why, of course. Smile as though this is not the thousandth time he's mentioned hounds and hunting? It's all in a day's work for the oh-so-proper sister of the Duke of Blackmore. Surely no one would suspect her secret longing for heart-racing, head-spinning passion. Except, perhaps, a dark stranger...on a terrace...at a ball where she should definitely not be kissing a man she has only just met.
Publisher's Summary
A 2015 Virginia Romance Writers HOLT Award of Merit recipient for outstanding literary fiction in the Romance Novella category.

As far as rash decisions go, it was formidable. But Lady Jocelyn Rathbourne's will remains strong. If the only way to save her family's estate and reputation is by aiming a small pistol at the Duke of Calydon, then so be it. For Lady Jocelyn demands satisfaction - and she will have it at any cost. Even if it means demanding the hand of the intense and foreboding Duke himself....
But she's made the first move against a very dangerous opponent....
For Sebastian Thornton is no stripling to be trifled with. The lady has played her hand. Now it's his turn. For Sebastian is in need of a wife. And to find a wife with spirit and fire - even if she means to only marry for his money - would be a great prize indeed. And he intends to thoroughly take his pleasure with her... and demands his own satisfaction in return.

Short in length, huge in entertainment!
What a lot of book in such a short tale. I wanted MORE! Set near the end of the 19th century and full of all the things we love about romance in that time.
Excellent performance, very hot, and worth the money. But it costs less than a credit!!!!

Good short story
I generally always like Stacy Reid's lounger stories and thought I would give this short one a try.
It was overall good, but with shorter stories, it was rushed. While I like my books to be over 200 pages, this one, even though it was under the 200 page mark was actually pretty good. While I do believe it would have been better if it were longer, the story flowed and the rushed feeling I receive when reading short stories wasn't as much as it had been with other shorter books.
I would recommend this book for a quick read that introduces you to the Duke's family. The other stories are longer, more evenly paced, and are a solid 5🌟. Since I felt this was a little rushed, it earned 4🌟.

I wanted a short audible for my work jaunt. This one fit the bill. Great start, and entertaining until the end. It's nothing deep, but wasn't looking for that. I'd recommend it.

Saucy, sexy and swift regency novella
Bumped the speed to 1.3x and once I got over the childish, almost Moaning Myrtle voice for Jocelyn, I enjoyed this feisty regency novella. In 2.5 hrs, there’s just enough plot, pluck, and Fx to enjoy. The two sex scenes are pretty typical for regency, but steamy enough to match scarred, scowling Sebastian and his daring, Derringer toting Duchess. Borrowed this for free in the final month of Audible Escapes... but might be willing to purchase on sale.

Too short, too flat
I knew this was a 2 hour book, but i didn't anticipate that 2 hrs would be such a waste of time. This could have been a good story but it's timeline sped fast. As a result, neither the plot or the on characters have made themselves worthy of a read.

Love Stacy Reid - horrible narrator
Once again Ms. Reid has been let down by the narrator. I couldn’t finish the other book because of the absolutely disastrous narrator and it happened here again in this one. Her stories deserve better! Thankfully it is short.
