Summary

Disfigured in fighting pits as a lad, Gabriel Sauvageau has lived his entire life without the touch of a woman. As the brains and brawn behind London’s most ferocious smuggling syndicate, he knows he doesn’t deserve shy, bespectacled Felicity Goode. But that doesn’t stop him from watching her. Guarding her. Wondering if her gentle touch would soothe his savage soul.

Though she wiles away hours immersed in the pages of romance novels, shy and anxious Felicity Goode has vowed never to become a bride. How can she share a life - not to mention a bed - with a man if she can’t bring herself to share a simple conversation without trembling and stuttering?

Once news of her obscene inheritance circulates through the ton, she is barraged not only by a slew of suitors, but also several distressing threats against her life. What she needs is a bodyguard. The large, scarred ruffian she finds on her stoop is exactly what she has been looking for. So why does his presence make her tremble in ways that have nothing to do with fear?

Fantastic narration

I've looking forward to this book and it did not disappoint. Kerrigan Byrne at her finest. The dual narration was great as well.

another brilliant story

Loved every second of it. just couldn't supp listening. I love love Kerrigan Bryne's books I can't get enough of them. Please write faster. Can't wait for the next one. As always Derek Perkins was brilliant and the narration was even better with Stella Hunter doing the female voices. More please.

Disappointing

Derek Perkins is an excellent narrator but unfortunately Stella Hinter isn't nearly as good.

The story was too short and lacked information on Gabriel's life, although the chemistry between him and Felicity was excellent.

I'm not sure whether I will be listening to any more of the series.
