Written by Amanda Mariel

Narrated by Stevie Zimmerman

Bound by Duty, Ignited by Passion: In a world of opulence and constraint, Lady Amelia must navigate tradition and desire, as a daring plan to secure an English lord entwines her fate with the enigmatic Duke of Goldstone, leading to a scandalous journey of love, secrets, and self-discovery.

In the elegant backdrop of 18th-century English aristocracy, Lady Amelia's world shatters with her father's passing, leaving her bereft and constrained by the bonds of youth. Guided by newfound allies Grace and Sarah, Amelia crafts a daring plan: a mere four weeks to settle her affairs and covertly secure an English lord for marriage, a ploy to anchor her heart to her homeland.

Amidst her mourning, Amelia's audacious quest unfolds as she embarks on the intricate game of capturing a worthy suitor from London's elite. Enter the captivating Duke of Goldstone, a Scottish nobleman whose allure is only matched by his unsuitable lineage in Amelia's eyes. Sparks ignite and tempers flare as Amelia and the Duke lock horns, their fierce debates underscoring an inexplicable pull drawing them together—a force impossible to ignore.

Amelia's journey teeters on the precipice of tradition and desire, as her clashes with the Duke force her to confront not only the conventions that bind her but also the uncharted territories of her own heart. In a world where propriety and passion collide, her struggle becomes a testament to the transformative power of love, unraveling secrets and self-discovery she could never have fathomed.

Scandalous Endeavors is an enthralling Victorian romance that sweeps readers into a captivating era of scandal, desire, and love. Join Lady Amelia and the Duke of Goldstone as they navigate the intricacies of society, and embark on a heart-pounding journey where true love defies all odds.
