About this listen
Ormsley: Hugh Brandforth, the seventh earl of Ormsley, returns to his estate after wasting several weeks searching for a bride. He is looking forward to some much-needed rest and recreation. All is not as he left it, however. Within an hour, he finds himself berated by his old nurse and assaulted by Miss Cressida Harrington, an eccentric termagant he has never before encountered. She is not at all the sort of woman he admires. He wants a respectable bride who will not ask for more than he can give—love. She has no need or desire to marry, and love is the only thing that might change her mind.
Derriford: Viscount Derriford likes to keep a low profile. He avoids ton parties and the ladies who frequent them whenever possible, preferring to spend time with his fellow bachelors. A predictable, undemanding existence suits him perfectly. Marriage has never been part of his plans; he is convinced he could never make any woman happy. However, when his aunt dies, leaving him a property in Somerset, a condition attached to his inheritance threatens this safe, untrammeled existence. He must accept all invitations proffered by the local gentry.
Eagleton: Alexander Wraxall, sixth marquess of Eagleton, worries he may be cursed. Those close to him tend to die, and he believes he is, in part, responsible for their deaths. When he receives a packet of letters from a relative he thought long dead, he embarks on a journey that will change his life forever. Nell Marsdon has put her nightmarish history behind her and, in the house of Angelica Montovani, has found some peace. It is shattered by the arrival of the marquess of Eagleton, a man who represents everything she has learned to despise.

Truly believable character development, and gripping storyline,
First I thank the narrator. She doesn't intrude, just does everything perfectly - perfect pronunciations, exactly portrayed feelings, never a wrong word emphasised ... I am led to think anything she reads will be a perfect mirror of the author's intentions.
As to the writing of the Confirmed Bachelor series, of which this is one part: excellent plot and writing generally. Credible historical details, characters of whom one sees more depth in every book ... truly enjoyable (unless you only want Regecy porn ... if so, look elsewhere, but you will be missing quality novels).

Enjoyable listen
Thoroughly recommend all three of these books by Jenny Hambley.
Three very different Regency heroes: the serious politician, the apparent dimwit and the rakehell with a traumatic past.
My favourite is Derriford, but the other two are enjoyable.
Jenny Hambley excels once again and Helen Taylor turns in another superb performance.
