Widowhood has offered Joan Durbin the chance to experience life as she never has before. When rumors of an agency of male courtesans in London bring her face to face with Sir Piers Lovelace, she is introduced to a world of enticing pleasures - those of domination and submission, pleasure and discipline, and utter abandon. Unlike most gentleman courtesans, Piers is a paramour to wealthy women not out of financial need, but because it allows for illicit affairs with no strings attached. After a previous heartbreak, Piers has no interest in being trapped into marriage by the devious ladies of high society. But Joan Durbin is unlike any woman Piers has ever known. Her brazen nature and uninhibited charm make it difficult to remember that their arrangement is one of pleasurable business only. Neither is looking for love, but both will be hard-pressed to deny its call.

This is a great book just long enough for a day snuggled up in a blanket this winter.

Widow Joan Durbin was married to a man who didn’t appreciate her and treated her bad and she has decided to have fun and to not let her dead husband to ruin what is left of her life. Joan decides to hire one of the Gentleman Courtesans to help her explore her desires.

Sir Piers Lovelace, is dominate who thought he was in love once before only to find out the woman was using him for entertainment. he joins the Gentleman Courtesans for the joy of it not because he needs the money.

Joan hires Piers and things really start to heat up.

I would recommend this book to anyone who likes their historical romance with a bit of erotic romance.

There is no other author of erotic Regency historical fiction and narrator who can deliver quite the level of titilating excitement and intensity as VV and DS. Not the usual boring fare, the characters and story arc will take you where few dare to tread.

Joan Durbin has enjoyed life as a widow, out from under the control of her overbearing, at times abusive, husband. She’s taken a string of lovers, but the pampered dandies of the London aristocracy have left her wanting, so when she hears of an agency of male courtesans, she decides to investigate. Upon meeting Sir Piers Lovelace, Joan’s desire for a dominant lover is finally satisfied.

Unlike most of his fellow courtesans, Piers has no need of the money he stands to earn, he simply enjoys the opportunity his position affords him to have affairs without any expectations of permanency. He’s had his heart broken before and has no interest in revisiting the pain.

But it doesn’t take long for Piers to realize that Joan is not like any other woman he’s ever met, and it becomes increasingly difficult for him to keep their arrangement simply pleasure without involving his heart.

It took a little bit for me to really get invested in this story, but Darcy Stark’s excellent narration helped to draw me in. At first, I was a bit annoyed by Joan’s bratty behavior, but at the same time I also identified with her rebellious streak, and I think that is what made her such a good match for Piers and him for her. They each challenged each other in ways that were recognizable as new and scary but also special and I think a lot of us read romance to remember that feeling of first meeting someone and realizing they’re different. At least I do, so I really enjoyed that here. Besides all that, the chemistry and steam here was off the charts and these two did a pretty good job of communicating, despite insecurities and a few false starts. I really enjoyed this story and I look forward to the rest of the series.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an audio advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

this was a great listen

As always Mistress Vale writes a story which is sensual, brilliant, romantic and utterly provocative! I loved the way Joan and Pierce was towards each other and the drama their relationship/keeper/courtesan-relationship worked! I was laughing one minute, stifling a moan the next and oh it was just perfect! Their evolution as characters was also very well done! They grew and changed and it was great to see/hear them do it throughout the story.

I recommend a fan, a cold shower or a man/partner close by once you finish this book! You’ll need it 😉

Sensual & provocative!
