Product Description

Leo Drake, the 'Mad Monk of Monkcrest', is notoriously eccentric and unquestionably reclusive. But he is also a noted antiquities expert, which is why Beatrice Poole has demanded his reluctant assistance. The free-thinking authoress of 'horrid novels', Beatrice is searching for the Forbidden Rings of Aphrodite, a mythic treasure she suspects played a role in her uncle's death. Beatrice finds Leo every bit as fascinating as one of the heroes in her novels - and she's convinced he's the only one who can help her. But after only five minutes in her company, Leo is sure he's never met a woman more infuriating ...and more likely to rescue him from boredom. Yet the alliance may well prove to be the biggest mistake of their lives. For a villain lurks in London, waiting for the pair to unearth the Forbidden Rings - knowing that when they do, that day will be their last...

Customer Reviews

With This Ring
Barbara Rosenblat brings this delightful romance to life, I love her accents of the various dialects, in fact I thought it was someone else speaking.
She gives such energy and humour that I have bought as many Amanda Quick's on Audio as I'm allowed.
The maid's awful french accent had me reeling on the floor.

Not as good as previous titles.
While still a good book, much better than some by other authors, if this is your first amanda quick I strongly suggest you start with one of her earlier titles.

It passes the time...
Same old same old. But even when she isn't at her best - she is still a hell of a lot better than anyone else.
