About this listen

Battered by the sea, Adam remembers nothing of his past, his ducal rank, nor of the shipwreck that almost claimed his life. However, he's delighted to hear that the golden-haired vision tending his wounds is his wife. Mariah's name and face may not be familiar, but her touch, her warmth, feel deliciously right...

When Mariah Clarke prayed for a way to deter a bullying suitor, she didn't imagine she'd find the answer washed ashore on a desolate beach. Convincing Adam that he is her husband is surprisingly easy. Resisting the temptation to act his wife, in every way, will prove anything but. And now a passion begun in fantasy has become dangerously real-and completely irresistible...

a sweet story

I enjoyed the story, it was sweet with some surprises...

Adam was sweet & loving, but there was something missing & I can't quite put my finger on what it was exactly... maybe it's just that I'd expect a bit more of conflicting thoughts or even some anxiety from someone with amnesia... he just seemed a bit too accepting of not knowing who he was... I can't quite explain it!

I liked Mariah, as she was intelligent & quick on her feet!

I liked the LGBTQ aspect of the story.

I loved most of the characters, Adam included... the villain was extremely easy to guess, but there were some unexpected turns in the story...

The narrator was neither good nor awful, but a better narrator would've made the story a lot better!

Loved the story

The story was very good but it was ruined by the narrator. All the male voices either sounded like 13yo boys or like effeminate men or women. Basically when Adam and Mariah spoke you couldn't tell who was talking if it didn't say, their voices were the same. Also from 1 chapter or scene to the next there was no pause at all, you realise it's another scene because the characters change. I definitely won't be listening to any more books narrated by Kate Rawson, that was the first and the last, so I'm pleased to see that the next book of the series is narrated by Simon Prebble.

O dear!

Dad wins a manor at cards, Dad is murdered by highwaymen. Cad who lost estate to Dad offers lustful marriage to bereaved heroine to regain estate.
Hero 's ship blows up and hero is flung into sea - injured and almost drowns. Heroine discovers hero and hero is able to walk with her assistance to the manor.
That's just the start of the plot from which it launches into high fantasy aided by heroine's deceased half gipsy grandmother.
I admitted defeat half way through chapter 7.

Good story and writing, but became harder to accept outcomes.

The story outline and the very competent writing and narration kept me going, but the various over-happy outcomes were just cloying and unbelievable in both appearance and execution, and ultimately spoiled what was otherwise a good yarn.The very pat murder outcome, with no real understanding given as to motive and a very unbelievable final scene was similar. Minor modem phrase and mispronunciation issues were easier to ignore, but I wouldn’t read more of this series.

no draft to narration

the story was good but narration spoilt it for me. I didn't know who was talking till she said.

the story was good. first I heard from this writer.

I really hope the next book is better, it has a different reader.
