À propos de cet audio

Abandoned by his father, Gareth Inglis grew up lonely, prickly, and used to disappointment. Still, he longs for a connection. When he meets a charming stranger, he falls head over heels—until everything goes wrong and he's left alone again.

Then Gareth's father dies, turning the shabby London clerk into Sir Gareth, with a grand house on the remote Romney Marsh and a family he doesn't know. The Marsh is another world, a strange, empty place notorious for its ruthless gangs of smugglers. And one of them is dangerously familiar…

Joss Doomsday has run the Doomsday smuggling clan since he was a boy. When the new baronet—his old lover—agrees to testify against Joss's sister, Joss acts fast to stop him. Their reunion is anything but happy, yet after the dust settles, neither can stay away. Soon, all Joss and Gareth want is the chance to be together. But the bleak, bare Marsh holds deadly secrets. And when Gareth finds himself threatened from every side, the gentleman and the smuggler must trust one another not just with their hearts but also with their lives.

Audio is Terrible

The story is excellent, the characters are great, and the relationship between the MCs is believable and has a great arc. If you're already a fan of KJ Charles, you won't be disappointed, but do yourself a favour and get the ebook or paperback, not the audiobook. If this is your first exposure to her work, PLEASE read it or go pick up the Will Darling Adventures audiobooks instead.

I'm not even sure if the problem is the narrator or the editing (I suspect the editing), because I like the variety of voices that he chose and there are bits that sound lovely, but it. is. so. choppy. with..... long .... weird pauses in random.... places. It's less noticeable at higher listening speeds (1.35x), but is still unpleasant.

This is the first KJ Charles book where I have been disappointed in the audiobook - the rest are among my favourites (I could probably listen to the Charm of Magpies and Will Darling series on loop for a week straight and be perfectly happy). I will never to listen to this one again.

loved this

I love everything this author writes. this one didn't disappoint. Grown-up heroes, attempts at improving communication. interesting setting. I also loved the accents from the narrator and didn't mind his idiosyncratic style, not at 1.5 speed.

Light, funny, smart and wonderful to escape with

I needed a light book that will capture my thoughts and this was perfect. It had everything of what you expect from an old time novel, but it is not old fashioned.
Also, full of sex descriptions that you can just skip or not

Just Okay

The story is okay enough. It might have been more that okay if one wasn't so distracted by the horrible audio performance. Not sure how audio this bad was allowed to be published on the work of such a fine author. It definitely feels like a disservice and it tak
