THE ILLEGITIMATE DUKE Diamonds in the Rough, Book 3

Narrator Carolyn Morris sets the scene in London society as Lady Juliette Matthews falls in love Florian Lowell, a physician and heir of the Duke of Redding. Florian battles an outbreak of typhus in the slums of St. Giles. He also becomes aware of a secret: His biological father is a notorious criminal. Morris aptly narrates the story as different characters fall ill, giving their voices a raspy quality as they struggle for breath. The listener expects Florian's father to have a more sinister tone of voice, given his evil plotting to bring harm to Florian, but that is not the case. Still, this is a good listening experience.
