Summary

A Marriage of Convenience

Such is the agreement forged between Lady Jessica Stanton and Simon Warland, Earl of Northcote. Jessica needs a husband strong enough to protect her inheritance from her avaricious stepbrother. Simon needs money to restore the family legacy his father squandered. United by necessity, emotional attachment isn’t part of the deal.

An Unexpected Passion

Yet once the reluctant newlyweds are living under the same roof, Simon can’t ignore the startling intellect, gentle strength, and graceful beauty Jessica keeps so carefully hidden from the world. And Jessica is intrigued to discover Simon’s formidable temper masks a kind, noble heart. But when Simon’s true motive for their marriage is revealed, Jessica is devastated by his betrayal. Because, despite her best intentions, she is falling in love with her husband. And love is the last thing either of them wants - though it may be exactly what they need.

What a gem!

Would you listen to Silent Revenge again? Why?

Of course I would listen to this again. It is the absolute best read story I have heard yet.

What other book might you compare Silent Revenge to, and why?

I loved this audio read by Rosalyn Landor, the best narration ever, for me. It doesn't compare with any other, it's up there on its own!

Which character – as performed by Rosalyn Landor – was your favourite?

Roslyn is so skilled with her female and male voices. Most of all I loved Sanjay, the male Indian servant. It was so easy to identify each person - magnificent performance!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, but took two nights. I had some sleep.

Any additional comments?

Am now looking for more of Rosalyn's audio books.

That in this kind of book I actually was taken by surprise by something.

danger - suspense - love

Any additional comments?

Great Concept but Poor Character Plots

This is a lovely story, but when viewed from a 21st century perspective, it feels like it's lacking! Both of the main characters fail in their communication with each other - not from what they can't say, but because they fail to finish sentences! Assuming each other wouldn't be able to tolerate the truth!

So, I found it a good easy going book, but not re-readable.

Silent Revenge

This story is one of my favourites!
It is a love story and a thriller and set in
a past that gives the reader a sense of what it was like in those times!
I love the way the writer effortlessly tells the story without jumping back and forth like some recent authors do nowadays!

Excellent!

Full of drama, suspense and intrigue. A mysterious tale, that stretched out and tested the love between two people. Worth the listen!
