Publisher's summary

The richest bachelor in England plays matchmaker…for an heiress he wants for himself!

For beautiful, witty Lavinia Gray, there’s only one thing worse than having to ask the appalling Parth Sterling to marry her: being turned down by him.

Now the richest bachelor in England, Parth is not about to marry a woman as reckless and fashion-obsessed as Lavinia; he’s chosen a far more suitable bride.

But when he learns of Lavinia's desperate circumstances, he offers to find her a husband. Even better, he’ll find her a prince.

As usual, there’s no problem Parth can’t fix. But the more time he spends with the beguiling Lavinia, the more he finds himself wondering…

Why does the woman who’s completely wrong feel so right in his arms?

Wonderfully Wilde!

From the moment they appeared in the first book, I wanted this story. It did not disappoint. Susan Duerden delivered a great audio reading and as always, Eloisa James nailed it. Loved it!

Perfect, had everything I love in a period romance novel!!!

This was a GREAT series and I encourage you to give it a try. I am looking forward to Betsy and Jeremy story. A big beautiful family with imperfections, had some sizzle, sauce, and flaws and a lot of love. It will join my other favorite author Julie Garwoods books on my shelf to read re-read many times. Well done Eloise James and my all time favorite narrator Susan Duerdon. I actually found the series & Eloise James by looking for books Susan narrates.

Hot Hot Romance

Loved this book, the narrator was excellent. Loved the banter between Lavinia and Parth. From the beginning you could tell
how Parth felt about her but she misconstrued. When she was in dire need she asks for his hand in marriage but he refuses.
But as they get to know each other things change. I just love the Wilde Family and their Aunt.

Somehow I was disappointed......

Since I tend to carry all the audio books of this author, I can say accurately that I personally was disappointed with this book. I do like the narrator, so that is not the problem. Somehow I failed to catch the barbed riposte, or perhaps the scintillating badinage slipped by me. Anyway, I was disappointed!
