About this audiobook

To keep her safe, he will not only have to risk his life, but also his heart.


Lady Anna was once considered the catch of the season. Now, three years after she fell for a man who tried to murder her cousin, she eases her guilt with charity work at an orphanage. Until her mother insists she do her duty.


Attending her cousin’s ball is irritating enough. It’s her one dance with Daniel, the unscrupulous Earl of Effington, that rubs her nerves raw. And oddly leaves her senses on the edge of arousal.


The ton sees Daniel as a scoundrel. In truth, like centuries of  before him, he leads a vast network of spies, protecting England from her worst enemies. His resolve never to marry means the one woman he’s always wanted—Lady Anna—is off limits. Especially now that his father’s murderer is coming after him as well.


At first, Anna wonders if Daniel was put on this earth just to annoy her. It’s only when she finds him injured that his mask begins to fall away—and so do the barriers between them. But their flaring passion puts her right where Daniel didn’t want her. Next on a killer’s list.


» WARNING: The following book contains: spies, musicales, men who think they know everything, women who know they do not, naughty liaisons, matchmaking mamas, and a seduction that will curl your toes.

The Spy Who Loved Her
Author

Melissa Schroeder

From an early age, USA Today Bestselling author Melissa loved to read. First, it was the books her mother read to her including her two favorites, Winnie the Pooh and the Beatrix Potter books. She cut her preteen teeth on Trixie Belden and read and reviewed To Kill a Mockingbird in middle school. It wasn’t until she was in college that she tried to write her first stories, which were full of angst and pain, and really not that fun to read or write. After trying several different genres, she found romance in a Linda Howard book. Since her first published book, Grace Under Pressure, Mel has had over 60 short stories, novellas, and novels published. She has written in genres ranging from historical to contemporary to futuristic and has worked with 8 publishers although she handles most of her publishing herself. She is best known for her Harmless and Santini series. After years of following her military husband around the country and world, Mel happily lives with her family in horse and wine country in Northern Virginia.

    I don’t like the reading pace of this reader. It needs more soul.

    I feel like she changed Daniel's backstory from the other books but still good even tho both mains are hopefully dense. The narrator was a bit robotic at times

    I really liked the book and the series. The first two narrators were wonderful, the last one lacked the emotion of the characters and made it difficult to connect with the characters. Towards the end it got a little better but she is pretty monotone. Overall, it was a great series.

    Overly dramatic to an extreme! The narrator is terrible as well. My goodness! I like so many of these author's books but absolutely not this one.

    Couldn't rate because I couldn't stand the narration, like most of the other reviews. I'm going to read it instead so I can rate the story itself.

    End of the series so far, I dont think it was as bad as other reviews make out, the narrator was ok! I was rooting for this couple but Daniel’s constant jealousy had a few red flags for me

    Narrator sucks. I looked her up and she is American and I knew it before I looked her up. There were all these words she just couldn’t pronounce properly “shot”, “ton” and on and on. It kind of ruined the listen for me. Then the story — ended too abruptly for a final installment to a series. Plus they drag the misunderstanding between H and H for too long. He is madly in love and she thinks he doesn’t love her. It goes on and on and on. There is actually a good mystery that they could have made more complex with more close calls. I also guessed the bad guy and I’m really really bad at doing that so that is not a good sign. Finally, the Hero’s super sexist comments never really get resolved and our heroine, who never wants to be owned by a man, really never gets much assurance that the hero understands his sexism. It was okay otherwise:)

    The 1st two books were good all around. This story is also good, but better to read it, as the narrator does a terrible job for Anna, as she sounds too robotic.

    The reader of this book was wooden and unappealing unfortunately. I only finished listening because I wanted to finish the series.

    This story was interesting, however the narrorator butchered it. I think I slept through 4 of the chapters because she was so boring and drawn out. Tried too much to have accents and articulate. She annunciated making each character their own voice, but oh so boring anyway. Fortunately the story caught my attention enough to finish the book. I almost didn't because of narroration.

    Note to anyone with a life: It is too short to listen to any book narrated by Nichole James!

    The narrator nearly sent me to sleep andI did not finish listening to it. Does the author choose and listen to the narrators.

    The book was enjoyable, but the narrator was really irritating. Read very slowly and seemed to switch accents mid sentence.
