Description

From New York Times bestseller Eloisa James, a new Regency-set novel in which a heiress with the goal of being a wallflower engages a rugged American in a scorchingly sensual, witty wager that tests whether clothing does indeed make the man—or the wallflower!

Miss Cleopatra Lewis is about to be launched in society by her aristocratic grandfather. But since she has no intention of marrying, she visits a costume emporium specifically to order unflattering dresses guaranteed to put off any prospective suitors.

Powerful and charismatic Jacob Astor Addison is in London, acquiring businesses to add to his theatrical holdings in America—as well as buying an emerald for a young lady back in Boston. He's furious when a she-devil masquerading as an English lady steals Quimby's Costume Emporium from under his nose. 

Jake strikes a devil's bargain, offering to design her "wallflower wardrobe" and giving Cleo the chance to design his. Cleo can't resist the fun of clothing the rough-hewn American in feathers and flowers. And somehow in the middle of their lively competition, Jake becomes her closest friend. 

It isn't until Cleo becomes the toast of all society that Jake realizes she's stolen his fiercely guarded heart. But unlike the noblemen at her feet, he doesn't belong in her refined and cultured world. 

Caught between the demands of honor and desire, Jake would give up everything to be with the woman he loves—if she'll have him!

Delightful

Another classic Eloisa James romance. If you happened to read the standalone, My American Duchess, you will recognize a character from that story. This is a very romantic tale, full of witty dialogue, funny situations, and quirky characters. The narrator is wonderful, as always.

I’m borrowing this from the library

I love Eloisa James but I stopped listening to this Audible version. The narrator was ruining the story for me. The cadence and rhythm of each character sounded the same. It was monotonous in a way I’ve never experienced listening to a book. I’m planning on reading the story so that Eloisa James is not ruined for me.

Never disappoints!

I LOVE Eloisa James!

The story was so sweet, and I loved the friendship they developed through the novel and the patience and love Jake had for Cleo.

James has a way with crafting unique and original heroines that aren’t the same old romance novel simpering miss!

I truly appreciate the historical details and well-crafted story!

Can’t wait for the next book in the series!!!

Delightful!

I'm going to start this review about the narrator! She is just wonderful. I love Susan Duerden! She always does a great job! Give her a chance.
This book was wonderful. I loved the characters. Jake Aster-Addison, is American trying to buy the best costume designer in London for his play houses in NYC and Boston. Cleopatra Lewis is the owner to her deceased father's camode company. She decides to buy the dress company so that the woman doesn't have to move to NYC. They meet and he immediately decides he wants Cleo! She takes a bit of persuasion. Together they are a wonderful pair! I loved this book.

Unique Romance

Good story with unusual circumstances. I like the characters l, their backgrounds, and the pace of the story telling. Not my favorite narrator, American accents are pitiful.

Boring

Although the characters are at least different than the norm, the story moves too slow and doesn’t develop beyond the main plot.
