""Joanna Shupe is the queen of historical bad boys!"" — Julia Quinn

By beloved USA Today bestselling author Joanna Shupe, the third installment in the Fifth Avenue Rebels series about an arranged engagement destined for disaster.

A hard-hearted tycoon.

A romantic dreamer.

An engagement set up to fail.

The charismatic and vivacious Katherine Delafield should be married by now. Her father arranged an engagement to the much sought-after tycoon Preston Clarke ages ago. The only problem is Preston refuses to acknowledge it. But this isn’t going to stop Katherine from living life to the fullest as she ditches all silly notions of love and marriage and sets out to sample all the excitement New York City has to offer . . . the more scandalous the better. Because no matter what happens, she and Preston will never marry.

After his family nearly lost everything, Preston is done letting his late father ruin his life—including choosing his bride. But when a mysterious lover at a masquerade turns out to be his would-be fiancée, Preston's resolve begins to crumble. He hadn't expected Katherine to be so charming. Or beautiful. Or passionate. And seeing her out on the town with other men is driving him crazy.

What happens when the wrong bride turns out to be the right woman after all?

Featured Article: The Gilded Age in History and Fiction


While fans of Julian Fellowes’s Gilded Age may be gagging on the luxurious costumes and sumptuous sets, part of the fun is sorting out fact from fiction in the HBO period drama. With a mix of invented characters and actual historical figures—such as society queen Caroline Astor and African American newspaper editor and civil rights leader T. Thomas Fortune—enthusiasts have plenty of resources available so they can learn the truth about the extravagant era when wealthy railroad magnates and other arrivistes were upending late 19th-century New York City society and culture.

Great series! Each book is my “new” fave! Definitely worth it. Joanna Shupe perfectly combines the Gilded Age with the romance genre.

Each book in the series is my new fave

The story was decent. The narrator voice was too squeaky for the female characters and overboard dramatic for male characters.

The petulance of both characters probably due to the narrators over acting and not so good voice.

Story was excellent. Characters interesting with great chemistry. Narrator did a good job with the American characters, but failed with the English accent

The love story & passion between Katherine & Preston was very well done. I had a hard time believing Preston's backstory & his life's story. There were details that made no sense but I could overlook all that. The scenes of passion were exceptional filled with anticipation & well done.

Fantastic narrator.

Wonderful love story

Joanna Shupe delivers again on the steam with the latest book in the Fifth Ave Rebels series. Her stories are always a refreshing change from the classic historical romances. Her heroines are strong, the tension between the leads satisfying. The narrator is not my favorite for male voices but the story is so good I can overcome this issue. I anxiously await the next book! Well done!

Another great Joanna Shupe book

It was a pleasant shift away from many romance stories where the main characters wallow in self centered doubt and obsessive focus on their own feelings.

I enjoyed the hint of a mystery that

...that never seem to feel resolved imo for the reader. There are big gestures by characters who betray the Heroine repeatedly, but nothing that feels like justice or character adjustments. Words about the father not even waiting 6 months to f*** his dead wife's best friend - all while his daughter & he are supposedly in mourning...then removing her mother's art as if it was too painful? Yeah...he needed more acute pain & punishment targeted upon his worthless self. He got off scott-free for the betrothal, the way he treated his former partners son, & more. And the hero's weasely caustic but sexual behavior did not make him believably in love; it made him an addicted user, a hedonist person more interestedin pleasing himself with no respect for her at all. And in the end where she doesn't get her original location & she hugs her dad's new wife...well, let me tell you that it makes the reader lose all respect for the Heroine. She's weak, pathetic, & a doormat for everyone who transactionally gets their way in return for her getting leftovers, crumbs, and traditional role expectations from her. Completely dissatisfying as a story. It has many skillful elements that are always just an "almost" thread that almost lead to something real, but never really take you the reader all the way to anywhere wholly resolved.

Sex, Betrayal, & Illogical Emotional Threads...
