About this audiobook
Dear Lady Truelove . . . I have fallen in love, truly and completely in love, for the first time. The man whom I hold in such passionate regard, however, is not of my station. He is a painter, a brilliant artist. Needless to say, my family would not approve . . .
Henry, Duke of Torquil, wouldn’t be caught reading the wildly popular “Dear Lady Truelove” column, but when its advice causes his mother to embark on a scandalous elopement, an outraged Henry decides the author of this tripe must be stopped before she can ruin any more lives. Though Lady Truelove’s identity is a closely guarded secret, Henry has reason to suspect the publisher of the notorious column, beautiful and provoking Irene Deverill, is also its author.
For Irene, it’s easy to advise others to surrender to passion, but when she meets the Duke of Torquil, she soon learns that passion comes at a price. When one impulsive, spur-of-the-moment kiss pulls her into a scorching affair with Henry, it could destroy her beloved newspaper, her career, and her independence. But in the duke’s arms, surrender is so, so sweet . . .

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Great book. I like how humble the duke was deep down. I love the reader’s voice too.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This had several aspects I enjoy, working heroines, journalism, class differences, dukes... And it was put together decently, but I didn't really get caught up in it. And the heroine was kind of mean when she was unhappy. The hero really wasn't a bad guy, so it just felt especially wrong for her to be so cutting. Several times I thought 'dang, shrewish much?!'. She's not absolutely beastly, but it didn't seem healthy or appealing either. I'll absolutely continue with the series, and I don't expect it to continue to be an issue, but I really doubt I would would ever reread this one.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Tedious. Manipulative, unlikable "hero". Couldn't finish it.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Loved!Henry and Irene are great characters, and their enemies-to-friends-to-lovers story was so much fun to read (though, really...why does it always take dukes so long to realize that hello, they're dukes and they can do what they want in life?) Henry's grand gesture was over-the-top fantastic (a thousand sighs, really!), and now I can't wait to see what Clara's book is going to bring!Rating: 4 1/2 stars / A
