Lord of scoundrels by loretta chase5/18/2023 In fact, when she is bantering with the Marquis of Dain at one point, they explicitly discuss this fact. As it happens, when they’re having this discussion there is a wonderful subtext which makes the conversation a kind of foreplay. She has little interest in marriage because she knows that legally speaking, it means her husband owns her. I adore her.įor a start, she is 27 – veritably on the shelf. Now, looking back on it from a position of far greater experience in the genre (although I am still a newbie compared to some of the people around the place), I can see where Jessica Trent is so very different from the everyday Regency heroine. I didn’t realise then how genre-busting and subversive it actually is. It regularly tops polls for favourite romance ever and it was one of the early books I read when I got back into romance a few years ago. Lord of Scoundrels is a classic in the romance genre. It is a perfect match between text and the narrator and I spent most of the listen in a kind of happy daze. When I found out that Kate Reading was narrating, I swear I heard angels sing. It was a great day in the audiobook section of Romancelandia when the announcement was made that Lord of Scoundrels was finally to be released in this format.
