Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

I was immediately drawn into Temptation by Jude Deveraux, a captivating tale of love, ambition, and societal norms. Alison Fraser's narration is a standout feature of this audiobook. Her ability to convey Temperance's fiery spirit and vulnerability is exceptional, making it easy to become invested in the character's journey. The pacing is excellent, balancing moments of intense emotion with witty dialogue and historical detail. However, I must admit, the love story between Temperance and her stepbrother, Angus, felt a tad rushed. I would have appreciated more time spent on their growing feelings for each other. Despite this, Temptation is a compelling listen, perfect for those who enjoy strong female leads and historical romances with a social conscience.
