Summary

Finding a worthy husband should be simple for three beautiful debutantes in Regency London. But the Somerset sisters have a way of making it delightfully complicated.... 

Violet Somerset has always preferred a library to a ballroom, but to please her grandmother, she agreed to one London season. With nothing to show for it but heartbreak, she's reconciled to spinsterhood. Until a notorious rogue known as the Devil of Dare requests an introduction to her timid, gentle youngest sister, Hyacinth. Violet will do anything to stop the match - even if it means posing as Hyacinth herself....

Nicholas Balfour, the earl of Dare, is enjoying the life of a rake far too much to take a wife. But he must keep his promise to his grandmother. He'll simply choose the meekest bride he can find, install her at his estate, then carry on as before. Hyacinth sounds perfect - until he discovers her sweet demeanor hides the tongue of a viper and the mind of a bluestocking....

As Violet's ruse threatens to unravel, however, she may find the tables turned. Soon, she may have no choice but to tolerate her handsome fiance - or fall in love with him....

Contains mature themes.

I really like this one but it was a little melodramatic. For one thing I can’t see a man getting that bent out of shape when he was in the wrong as well and maybe more so. Next I hate when they don’t wrap up the ends of things, what happens to the mistress? The ending seemed a bit anticlimactic as well. I guess I need a villain that gets his just dessert.

Really enjoyed this story but….

This is a fun, entertaining read. Nicholas and Violet are interesting, relatable, intriguing, complex, entertaining, fun characters. I enjoyed them as individuals and a couple. Their romance with its twists and turns is entertaining to read. The more time I spent with Nicholas and Violet the more I liked them. The secondary characters added to the fabric of the story and my enjoyment. I love that we got to see so much of the couple from the first book in the series and Violet’s younger sister Hyacinth. The story is easy to read and get into.

I enjoyed the audio version of this story and the narrator.
