Summary

A rogue redeemed

As Washington burns, Callista Brooke is trapped in the battle between her native England and her adopted homeland. She is on the verge of losing everything, including her life, when a handsome Englishman cuts through the violent crowd to claim that she is his. Callie falls into her protector's arms, recognizing that he is no stranger but the boy she'd once loved a lifetime ago.

Lord George Gordon Audley had been Callie's best friend, and it was to Gordon she turned in desperation to avoid a loathsome arranged marriage. But the repercussions of his gallant attempt to rescue her sent Callie packing to Jamaica and Gordon on a one-way trip to the penal colony of Australia.

Against all odds, Gordon survived. Finding Callie is like reclaiming his tarnished soul, and, once again, he vows to do whatever is necessary to protect her and those she loves. But the innocent friendship they shared as children has become a dangerous passion that may save or destroy them when they challenge the aristocratic society that exiled them both.

Don’t waste your money

Predictable, pathetic. Zero surprises. MJP could have (and maybe) faxed this one in. Definitely not her best work.

The best writer and narrator combination in Audible

Mary Jo Putney has won many, many awards for her writing, and they are thoroughly deserved. This is another superb romance with an unusual theme.
The narration by Beverley A. Crick is perfect in every way; In my opinion she is the best narrator in Audible. The various accents are absolutely accurate, and her interpretation complements the excellence of the writing,
I cannot recommend this listening experience too highly. To MJP and BAC (in case either of you still reads reviews) I simply say: thank you both, very much indeed.
