Publisher's Summary
Welcome to a new series by nationally best-selling author Elizabeth Johns. Enjoy the extraordinary tale of four Knight brothers, and one little sister in the Gentlemen of Knights.
Can a sharp-tongued governess become indispensable to a duke?
Rowley Knight, Duke of Knighton, is too busy being a duke to bother with such nonsense as love. With three heirs, he is in no hurry whatsoever to succumb to the lures of the leg-shackles. He is content managing his siblings and estates, and avoiding society whenever possible. If he can only find someone to manage his young sister, life can go back to its proper order.
Emma Lancaster's father gambled away her family's fortune leaving her hopes for a respectable marriage shattered. Destitute and near desperate, she accepts a position as a governess to a young lady at the recommendation of her godmother. Little does she know that her charge is the brother of the man she despises. Can she humble herself to become his employee? Or will her temper get the best of her - and him?

New to Elizabeth Johns
Pleasantly surprised! A good read, wish it was longer and with Alex Wyndham narrating I really enjoyed the book. Through years of audible listening, I've become picky about the narrators because a poor narrator can ruin a good book. Alex Wyndham makes a good book better. I'm going to check out Elizabeth's other books!

Cute, but ...
This is a nice clean story. The narrator makes it very interesting, and you keep waiting for those really important moments. But, when they arrive they don’t have that sparkle you are looking for that make you re-listen over and over again. Good book to listen if you are looking to pass the the time and entertain yourself. Very little romance a lot of yearning!

Excellent story with incredible narration
First in a series of books about five siblings (four brothers and a sister) during the Regency era. Clean with a touch of danger and intrigue. Family dynamics are familiar to any era. Wonderfully performed by Alex Wyndham.

Good series, Reader improves
I almost returned this, but glad I stuck with it. The series is good, book 2 had me laughing a lot. The reader initially made me fell anxious with his tone and pattern and I couldn’t get his pace. I slowed (never changed speed before) to .8x or .9x and finally settled on .9x speed and it was perfect. Once I settled in, I was glad as he’s a good reader with different character sounds and has a lot of emotion in his voice. I’m 2 books in at .9x speed and loving the series. I listen to a lot of historical romance and I really appreciate the way the author can build story, character, and tension without graphic scenes, I was able to listen to this one without having my pause button at hand around people lol. It was a nice change of pace. Looking forward to other books from this author and will definitely listen to this reader again. The Duke did start of haughty enough to deserve that voice lol. I really appreciate still hearing about the other characters in the following books, it was separate enough to be individual stories, but all together an extended family series.

Spoiler alert - may be triggering to some
I enjoyed the story until the villain was revealed late in the story to be a human trafficker of women and young boys. The good guys consider what to do with him. Scandal must be avoided so the hero hopes to encourage him to leave the country. Not a feel good story at the end in my opinion. Narrator was great though.

Narrator
His intonation of the novel reminded me of the narration of Jack Webb in the American series Dragnet. Initially hard to listen to.

Exceptional
Alex Wyndham is one of my favorite narrators and he certainly didn't disappoint in this lovely book by Elizabeth Johns. Elizabeth Johns is such a gifted writer. Her characters always have depth yet are so relatable. In this book, there was humor, love of family & and beautiful romance-with just the right amount of intrigue.
