He was her target. She was his diversion. Falling in love was never something they wanted.

As a con woman who has spent her entire life fending for herself on the streets of London, Rose Wakefield knows how to scam a gentleman out of his money without ever getting caught. That's until she knocks on the wrong earl's door and is faced with Carver Ashburn Earl of Kensworth and not the notorious rake she thinks she is approaching.

Carver is a good man, but even a good man will not pass up an opportunity to escape his grief. What better way to avoid his feelings than to play into a con woman's ruse and offer to marry her?

Things only grow more complicated when Carver sweeps Rose off to his family estate and circumstances force them both into continuing the ruse. Carver needs to protect his family, and Rose needs to protect herself - and her heart.

With so much set against them, will Rose and Carver have a chance at love and freedom? Or is the possibility of more heartache not worth the risk?

The performance is inexplicably delivered at a painfully s-l-o-w cadence. You are going to have to up the speed on your play back to make this tolerable.

Whyyyyy?!?!!

Must play at 1.2 speed to be tolerable

This was a sweet clean romance that I really enjoyed. It's been awhile since I've read a regency romance.

A case of mistaken identity and an intended diversion become a lot more than Rose or Carver ever imagined.

These two were sweet and funny together, although there were a lot of times it drove me crazy that it took so long for Carver to come to terms with the tragedy in his life so that he could fully accept his love for Rose!

Rose was strong and vulnerable and so full of love. Her kindness for others was beautiful.

I loved Carvers family (especially his conversations with his brother in law Robert) and of course Oliver!

I quite enjoyed this book and look forward to Oliver and Elizabeth's story!

A fun concept and good execution. It felt more like Bridgerton and less like Lady Darby, both regency series I love but they are very different in tone. The characters were likeable and the writing was sound. I sped up the narration to at least 1.3, and went as fast as 1.7 to increase my enjoyment of the performance.

A fun listen

It’s a classic fake relationship story with a character scarred from a past relationship. There’s no reinventing the wheel here and some things are so obvious, but it was nice and I do love the family members on both sides are sweet, which is nice.
BUT, increase the speed to at least 1.2. 1x was so excruciating that I thought I had somehow slowed it down.

It gets better than the fart joke, I promise
