Publisher's Summary

Lady Arabella Blydon has beauty and a brain, and she's tired of men who can see only one without the other.

When a suitor tells Arabella he's willing to overlook her appalling bluestocking tendencies on account of her looks and fortune, she decides to take a break from the Marriage Mart. During an extended stay in the country, she never expects to meet Lord John Blackwood, a wounded war hero who intrigues her like no other man.

Lord John has lived through the worst horrors of war, but nothing could have been as terrifying to his tormented heart as Lady Arabella. She is intoxicating, infuriating, and she makes him want to live again. Suddenly he's writing bad poetry and climbing trees in the pitch-dark night just so he can dance with her as the clock strikes midnight. And even though he knows he can never be the sort of man she deserves, he can't help wanting her. But when the harsh light of day replaces the magic of midnight, can this tormented soul learn to love again?

Featured Article: The Bridgertons Audiobooks in Chronological Order


In a fictional Regency-era London, the Bridgerton and the Featherington families depend on the marriages of their many children. Bridgertons has won over the hearts of millions, and Julia Quinn has likened the series to "a Cinderella story." Shonda Rhimes adapted the series of romance novels into the hugely popular Bridgerton Netflix series. Although a different character inspires each volume of the series, it’s best to enjoy the saga chronologically.

quite good

this book and performance are both quite good, I think after only this 2nd book I'm ready for a break from the series but really not bad either.

couldn't get past the performance

I barely got into this story because the voice actor was so terrible. I like to listen to these stories to relax and I couldn't bear it. I usually love Julia Quinn stories, but not with this voice actor.

Not worth your time

I love Julia Quinn but this is not worthy of her. It has no real plot. It is silly and insipid. I will avoid this narrator with her annoying shrieky affected performance. I don’t think any of this even deserves one star.
