Publisher's summary

When Lady Charlton is forced into becoming London's most reluctant matchmaker, sparks fly and romance ensues - from the nationally best-selling author of Marry in Scarlet.

Alice, Lady Charlton, is finally free of her dominating husband, but on the verge of her new life, she is trapped when a blackmailer threatens to publish letters that could ruin her. To protect the secrets of her past Alice must find a lord for his daughter, Lucy, to marry.

Alice reluctantly agrees to find the girl a noble husband, but when Lucy arrives, she's difficult and uncooperative and has no interest in her father's scheme. A lord, she says, will only look down his nose at her - and she's having none of that!

Desperate to retrieve the letters, Alice enlists the aid of her handsome young nephew, Gerald, who in turn seeks the help of his former commanding officer, James, Lord Tarrant. James is soon beguiled by the marriage-averse widow and sets out to change her mind. And each time they meet, Gerald and Lucy strike sparks off each other.

To find happiness, Alice and Lucy will have to be brave and trust in each other and the men who are attempting to win their hearts.

Contains mature themes.

Not as great as Merridew series

The Merridew Sister series has two of my top ten (out of 600) books. I love the mix of heart, humor, and heat. I just could not follow this story. I don’t know if it was the mix of characters or the narrator. The story just kept falling out of my attention. I couldn’t keep character parings straight in my head and everyone sounded the same. I am going to try one more story in the series but I don’t have high hopes…. Maybe I will be pleasantly surprised. I love Heather Wilds so perhaps I’m just missing her narration.

Marvelous start to new series! Loved the writing, the story, and the delicious humor.

This audiobook’s a delight to listen to. Anne Gracie’s story is so much fun, and the narration by Christine Rendel Is great - she really brings these characters to life.

Finding love and overcoming the past

Very well written with witty and thoughtful dialogue. The two main characters grow and overcome crippling pasts. Psychologically possible and often very funny – – a combination of and difficult to achieve. I am so happy to have discovered Anne Gracie.

One of her best!

Oh my god, this was SO so good!! I was laughing out loud from the 1st chapter, and throughout the whole book, I couldn’t believe it! Anne Gracie really outdid herself with the story, jam packed with the drama and romance we love from her, with tons of well written lines, a well thought out and illustrated plot, and diverse and compelling characters. The narrator as well did an excellent job and it’s in part due to her reading of the lines that the humor came across so well. Brava, Anne Gracie! I only wish I hadn’t finished this so quickly because now I have nothing left to read!

Best Read in a Long Time!

Excellent character development plus humor & a captivating storyline. Children plus animals can’t be beat. Tasteful love scene, a very nice bonus!
