Biweekly marriage proposals from men who can't see beyond her (admittedly breathtaking) looks are starting to get on Lady Clara Fairfax's nerves. Desperate to be something more than ornamental, she escapes to her favorite charity. When a child is in trouble, she turns to tall, dark, and annoying barrister Oliver Radford.
Though he's unexpectedly found himself in line to inherit a dukedom, Radford's never been part of fashionable society, and the blonde beauty, though not entirely bereft of brains, isn't part of his plans. But Clara overwhelms even his infallible logic, and when wedlock looms, all he can do is try not to lose his head over her.
It's an inconvenient marriage by ordinary standards, but these two are far from ordinary. Can the town's most adored heiress and London's most difficult bachelor fall victim to their own unruly desires?

You can read the blurb for a plot summary, but here you have love between equals. A very smart woman frustrated to the point of hysteria over having to pretend she has no brain. A man so smart he's never surprised...and Lady Clara surprises him. Quite a bit. The sexual tension is palpable, the dialog is hilarious, the narration is sublime, the plot is unique and unpredictable, and the whole thing is a delicious delight. I especially enjoyed how, when she became deathly ill, Raven nursed Lady Clara. That's the opposite of nearly every other romance I've ever read.
This is Ms Chase's best so far, IMO, and the narration makes it sizzle and pop even more. I highly recommend this one!
Utterly wonderful

Clara is one of my top female characters ever! I love that she puts up with nothing. The beginning of the book relates her first meeting with "Raven" and it's memorable. She reads books when it's not considered proper for women. She drives her own carriage. She's an amazingly "modern" woman for her time. And then she runs into Raven again (of course) and it's a very fun adventure. Oliver, aka Raven, is also one of my favorite characters. Their banter makes the book. Both characters are intelligent and that contributes to a great story.
The writing is phenomenal. The dialogue is a riot. I found myself laughing out loud and surprising my husband since I was listening with headphones and he had no idea what was going on.
Kate Reading does another perfect job with the narration.This book was well worth the wait.

This book started off very slow IMO. I feel like this is partially because there seemed to be little interaction between Clara and Radford.
Once Clara and Radford were together in the story more - the dialogue was WONDERFUL. The story really caught my interest and I didn't want to put it down for the last 3-4 hours. Chase does an excellent job with characters and the back and forth banter between the main characters is always so engaging and fun.
You may have to listen to the first half on 1.5x speed to get to the really good stuff, but it is definitely worth it in the end.
Clara's story - nice addition to the series

well written and humorous too

The story line was inventive, unique -- but she seemed like too smart a girl to go for a man who yelled at her so much. There I go applying modern values...
Not the best book ever
