Review of The Speed of Seduction by Cara Maxwell

I don't normally listen to audiobooks, but I wanted to give this book a go.

While I was a little unsure to begin with having a solo female narrator, I think she did wonderfully. It was a little jarring at first with her doing the male accent (again something I'm not really used to for not having listened to many audio's) but, it was something I quickly adjusted to and in the end didn't really notice. Sasha Higgins had a very lovely voice that was easy to listen to.

As for the story, it was wonderful. I enjoyed learning more about each of the characters. I liked the fact that though he was a rake, he didn't continue that side of his life after he met the heroine, something that usually puts me off a book.

I love an unexpected match story. Him being a Duke to be, her an overlooked younger sibling to many. The pair worked well together and I loved how their relationship grew, and he fell first! A trope I love.

The story does end with a lot of unanswered questions, but that just makes you want to read on (at least, it should). The couple had their HEA and the mysteries will no doubt be resolved, or explored further in the next book/s.

Overall, a lovely book by a new author to me.

I wouldn't hesitate to pick up others by this author.
