About this listen
Diana Boyle, a wealthy young widow, has no desire to ever marry again. Particularly not to someone who merely wants her for her fortune.
So when she discovers that she’s listed in a directory of rich, single women she is furious, and rightly so. She confronts Maxwell Dean, the man who published the Bachelor’s Directory, and is horrified to find he is far more attractive than his actions have led her to expect. However, Diana is unmoved by Max’s explanation that he authored the list to assist younger sons like himself who cannot afford to marry unless it’s to a woman of means.
She gathers the ladies in the directory together to inform them of its existence, so they may circumvent fortune hunters’ efforts to trick them into marriage. Though outraged, the women decide to embrace their unique position of power and reverse the usual gender roles by making the men dance to their tune. And together…the ladies rewrite the rules.
This was a fluffy story, that I had a fun time listening to. I came upon this story as it was being performed by the absolutely fantastic Elizabeth Knowelden. I love the whimsy and charm her voice brings out in these stories, that's a joy to listen.
As for the story itself intriguing plotline, good start, and engaging middle and satisfying, even if not surprising, ending all around.
Good for a cozy afternoon.
Intriguing Plot, Marvelous Performance
