Publisher's summary

In this steamy Regency romp, Lady Selina is determined to find the Duke of Stanhope the perfect wife—the only problem is she's starting to think that might be her.

Peter Kent—newly inherited Duke of Stanhope and recently of New Orleans, Louisiana—must become respectable. Between his radical politics and the time he interrupted a minor royal wedding with a flock of sheep—not his fault!—he’s developed a scandalous reputation at odds with his goal of becoming guardian to his half-siblings. For help, he turns to the cleverest and most managing woman of his acquaintance, Lady Selina Ravenscroft.

Selina is society’s most proper debutante, save one tiny secret: she runs an erotic circulating library for women. When Peter asks for her help, she suggests courtship and marriage to a lady of unimpeachable reputation. (Which is to say, definitely not herself.)

But matchmaking doesn’t go according to plan. Peter’s siblings run rampant on Bond Street. Selina ends up in the Serpentine. And worst of all, the scorching chemistry between Peter and Selina proves impossible to resist. For the disreputable duke and his unpredictable matchmaker, falling in love just might be the ultimate scandal.

A fun, sexy read

I really like that the hero and heroine work together as a team! They don't lie to each other as so many love interests do. Refreshing! Romantic and steamy!!! My only quibble is that there are too many G**damns! If I were reading the novel I would probably not notice, but hearing them aloud is off-putting. Still highly recommend this book and this author!!!

Good read!

Dislike female voice for male characters. Each gender should voice their own character in the book.

Fresh and funny.

This doesn’t read like a debuts novel. It’s charming and funny, and while it hits all the expected beats for a modern HR, it stands out as very much its own story. Unlike a number of pleasant enough HR novels, this one won’t be blending in with all the others.

Fun, Regency rom-com. Spicy scenes did NOT disappoint.

The narrator was fantastic, I just had to increase the speed as the talking was a bit too slow for me to follow. Once I did that, I was fully engaged with the story. Awesome debut novel!! Can’t wait for the next one in the series!!

Debut novel

3.5 stars. This is the first full length novel from this author. Her Hallifax novellas were great but this book was just not at the same level as her novella triology. Some of the banter in the beginning of the book was excellent and there is a lot of potential in her writing. I felt that there wasn't enough conflict between the characters to really push the story along. Bravo on the references to banned books in the past I did really enjoy learning about the forbidden literature and libraries. I hope she keeps writing and I'll look forward to her next novel.
