About this audiobook
In the second installment of USA Today bestselling author Christi Caldwell’s Sinful Brides series, a noblewoman risks her reputation—and her heart—on London’s most notorious gaming proprietor.
Thanks to her older siblings, Lady Penelope Tidemore is no stranger to scandal. In order for her to make a good match, her secret longings for intrigue and romance must be quelled. Yet it is through terrible mischance that Penelope is caught in a compromising position—however innocent—with the darkly enigmatic viscount Ryker Black.
Mr. Black is no gentleman. Raised from the streets and proprietor of the most notorious gaming hell in London, Black lives in a world filled with debauchery and danger. Taking a Society wife from the very ton he despises is not part of his plan, even if the innocent Penelope turns his blood hot with desire.
But Penelope isn’t afraid of Mr. Black, and she soon discovers that his reputation as a scoundrel may be designed to hide a surprising vulnerability. As this unlikely husband and wife grow closer, they learn that what started as chance could end up sealing their fates.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great characters and story. Timothy Campbell is a voice master. Very romantic and moving.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I loved this book! It gives you just the perfect amount of love and gooey feelings you need!!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Have been looking for something that has the character development and the "fun" quotient of Lyndsay Sands or Julia Quinn. They're still my favs, but Christ has definitely joined the fold.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This part was purely amazing! The narrator did a great job too ?
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Although the book was well written. I couldn't warm up to the characters. Penny till the end remains childish and immature and why the street hardened MR black turns into a sentimental romantic fool is still a mystery. As much as I love the beauty and the beast troupe this one has nothing to recommend it.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Nice book. Liked Riker more than expected and it was good to get to know his brothers a little more
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Very enjoyable
Great characters! Fully flawed and with a ton of baggage. Both books in this series deal with the perceptions we have of others, in pigeon holing people and not seeing them for who they truely are - just the same as us. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The Scoundrel's Honor by Christi Caldwell is another example of writing from the heart. Set in 1822 London. While, Book 2 in her mesmerizing series, "Sinful Brides", it can easily be read as a stand alone. See, "The Rogue's Wager". If you have read Ms. Caldwell's intriguing stories before, you will probably remember Lady Penelope Tidemore and Ryker Black, as appearing characters. Lady Penelope Tidemore is in no way a stranger to scandal. Her older siblings caused such a scandal, her family's good name was mudged. She longs for adventure, romance and passion for herself, as well. The enigmatic but darkly Viscount Ryker Black, is a very dangerous man, he owns a gambling hell and does not enjoy, in fact, he despises the nick picking society, he was raised from the streets of London, afterall. He lives in a world filled with danger and debauchery. Therefore, does not desire a society miss to marry, until he meets the enchanting Lady Penelope who makes him burn with desire. When, Penelope is caught in a compromising postion, due to no fault of her own, will Ryker take responsibility and marry Penelope? Even through she is his sister's new friend, will he leave Penelope to face the gossip, whispers and innuendoes alone? Can Ryker and Penelope find their HEA as danger lurks?Fast paced, emotionally charged, intriguing, suspenseful, with mystery, and adventure. Christi Caldwell has a way with her stories that draws readers in and holds them spellbound throughout. I love her details to a story, her charactizations in my opinion are right on, the detail to the era is enlightened and the reader can tell she researches her topics to give the reader a more realistic view of the era, characters, their challenges and the storyline. The depth of her stories are heart stirring, powerful, as well as, captivating and seductively intriguing. Please, don't get me wrong she in no way writes explicit scenes nor scenes that may embarrass the reader in anyway. Or to me, at least. Readers will find a read where ladies were treated as property and gentlemen their owners. But will Ryker be able to protect his cherished, and enchanting Penelope from the dangers his choice of living may cause? And society gossip? Fans of Regency Romance, Historical Romance with complications, challenges, a bit of violence, ton scandal, intrigue and passionate characters, "The Scoundrel's Honor" is a perfect read for you to start reading. Ms. Caldwell is one of my favorite Regency Romance authors. She is such a dedicated author to her readers, her fans, and family, she simply is a powerful and compelling author of Regency Romance.
