Michael Bromley, the Duke of Woriton, has a passion for chemistry experiments, but he’s not as adept at finding romantic chemistry. Elizabeth “Bitsy” Dockery is the star of the season, dazzling all of high society. Michael and Bitsy are thrown together when a dognapping goes awry, and a thief absconds with Bitsy’s dog and Michael’s aunt’s dog. Michael is determined to get to the bottom of the mystery and retrieve the dogs, even if it means being stuck with Bitsy. As they work together, Michael learns more about chemistry and attraction than he ever thought possible. Enoch’s (
Something in the Heir) latest Regency romance abounds with wit, chemistry, and charm. Narrator Mark Meadows perfectly captures the characters’ personalities, from flighty Bitsy to exasperated Michael to Jimmy, the dognapper who could use some practice. Listeners will appreciate Michael’s fully developed character arc as he moves from grumpy scientist to betrothed man.
VERDICT Cozy and mildly steamy, this twist-filled novel is an excellent fit for listeners seeking a fast-paced and fun historical romance.
