About this listen
Audie Award, Romance, 2016
Dorian Blackwell, the Blackheart of Ben More, is a ruthless villain. Scarred and hard-hearted, Dorian is one of Victorian London's wealthiest, most influential men who will stop at nothing to wreak vengeance on those who've wronged him... and will fight to the death to seize what he wants. The lovely, still innocent widow Farah Leigh Mackenzie is no exception-and soon Dorian whisks the beautiful lass away to his sanctuary in the wild Highlands.... But Farah is no one's puppet. She possesses a powerful secret-one that threatens her very life. When being held captive by Dorian proves to be the only way to keep Farah safe from those who would see her dead, Dorian makes Farah a scandalous proposition: marry him for protection in exchange for using her secret to help him exact revenge on his enemies. But what the Blackheart of Ben More never could have imagined is that Farah has terms of her own, igniting a tempestuous desire that consumes them both. Could it be that the woman he captured is the only one who can touch the black heart he'd long thought dead?

Story3.5 out of 5 stars 7
Reverend Augustus Shackleford's mission in life (aside from ensuring the collection box was suitably full every Sunday) was to secure advantageous marriages for each of his eight daughters. A tall order, given the fact that in the Reverend's opinion they didn't possess a single ladylike bone in the eight bodies they had between them. Quite where he would find a wealthy titled gentleman bottle headed enough to take any of them on remained a mystery and indeed was likely to test even his legendary resourcefulness.

What the critics say
"Captured me from page one and never let go. Romantic, lush, and suspenseful." (Suzanne Enoch, author of The Devil Wears Kilts)
"[Narrator Derek] Perkins's command of accents and tone creates a cast of delightfully diverse characters.... Perkins's range of voices and timing makes for entertaining and telling repartee between the characters as well as adds to the suspense as the real villains of this romance reveal themselves." (AudioFile)

Wish they had a female narrator for Farrah
Enjoyed the story
Liked the narrator for Male character, however for the female characters it made them sound odd - not matching the picture they paint of Farrah

beautifully written
the main plot of the story is very predictable but that did not at all detract from the fun of the story or the beauty of the writing. I'm excited to look into more of this author's works now. and that audio was performed well. good pacing and the use of voices and different accents is always appreciated.

A story of child hood love separated
Dorian Blackwell, the Blackheart of Ben More, is a ruthless villain. Scarred and hard-hearted, Dorian is one of Victorian London's wealthiest and most influential men, who will stop at nothing to wreak vengeance on those who've wronged him. and will fight to the death to seize what he wants. The lovely, still innocent widow Farah Leigh Mackenzie is no exception, and soon Dorian whisks the beautiful lass away to his sanctuary in the wild Highlands.
She possesses a powerful secret—one that threatens her very life. When being held captive by Dorian, it proves to be the only way to keep Farah safe from those who would see her dead. Dorian makes Farah a scandalous proposition: marry him for protection in exchange for using her secret to help him exact revenge on his enemies.
It was an interesting story, but I did not enjoy the voices projected in the audio. It could be the accent, so I will try to read it instead to see if I will enjoy it better. Overall, an excellent story.

Great story.
I found the story very interesting. The characters were well described. A dark yet exciting combination of tragic happenings. This was a book that had a very refreshing and much needed take on love. No cookie cutter romance found in a million other books. My only complaint is the voice of the main female character. Don’t understand why they can not have a woman and man work together to audio the books. Technology should allow this to happen easily and it would so be worth spending a few extra dollars a book to have that happen.

Engaging and Entertaining Listen
Engaging, lush and steamy with hints of darkness. Well written and well narrated. I've already downloaded the next book in the series.
