More than a Mistress

by Mary Balogh Narrated by Rosalyn Landor Unabridged — 11 hours, 47 minutes

Overview

In this captivating novel, Mary Balogh, the premier writer of Regency romance, invites you into a world of scandal and seduction, of glittering high society and intrigue, as an arrogant duke does the unthinkable - he falls in love with his mistress.

She raced onto the green, desperate to stop a duel. In the mêlée, Jocelyn Dudley, Duke of Tresham, was shot. To his astonishment, Tresham found himself hiring the servant as his nurse. Jane Ingleby was far too bold for her own good. Her blue eyes were the sort a man could drown in - were it not for her impudence. She questioned his every move, breached his secrets, touched his soul. When he offered to set her up in his London town house, love was the last thing on his mind.

Jane tried to pretend it was strictly business, an arrangement she was forced to accept in order to conceal a dangerous secret. Surely there was nothing more perilous than being the lover of such a man. Yet as she got past his devilish façade and saw the noble heart within, she knew the greatest jeopardy of all, a passion that drove her to risk everything on one perfect month with the improper gentleman who thought love was for fools.

When his duel is interrupted by the shriek of a maidservant, Jocelyn Dudley, duke of Tresham, is shot in the leg. As punishment for her disruptive outburst, Jane Ingleby is forced to nurse the ill-tempered Tresham back to health. But impudent and strong-willed Jane is not what she claims. And after making her his mistress—and then falling in love—Dudley learns that Jane is really a missing Cornish heiress, a murderess and thief, and the talk of the town. Rosalyn Landor gives a winning performance, bringing her rich, sonorous voice to the book’s aristocratic, Regency-era characters and providing narration that is crisp, well paced, and highly entertaining. Landor produces a host of distinct and believable voices—including a nasally cockney accent for the lower classes—for the many characters that populate Balogh’s bestselling romance.
