Publisher's summary

To rescue her friend from a loveless marriage, a daring woman dons a disguise and finds herself captivated by a mysterious rake in this "perfect Regency romance" from award-winning author Anne Gracie.

In three years on the marriage market, Grace Merridew has never met a man whose kiss stirred her senses. So she makes plans for a life of adventure instead - to see the moon rise over the pyramids of Egypt and dance amid the marble ruins of Greece. But first she must help a friend in need....

Timid Melly Pettifer is being forced to marry Dominic Wolfe, who stands to inherit a huge estate if he weds. The Wolfes have a terrible reputation, and if there's one thing Grace cannot stand, it's a bully. When Melly begs for assistance in escaping her impending nuptials, Grace acts as the plain and mousy chaperone on their visit to the groom-to-be. But when they arrive nothing is as they expect, and Grace is scandalized to find herself being pursued by a big bad Wolfe....

Contains mature themes.

Cute story

I didn't warm up to the hero as much as in the last story, but I still really liked it.

Consummate Reader

This book and all the previous of the series has been the greatest. I loved the plot and all the characters have been intelligently woven with satire and warmth. The narrator was very good with accents as well. I highly recommend the series😊.

Great end of the series!

I liked the verity of the 4book series. Each sister had a unique journey and I loved the inclusion of different cultures and customs.

A Perfect Ending to the Series

Although the series was somewhat predictable, I loved the entire series! I love the different twist, turns and surprises. The entire series was full of ups, downs and overcoming the things life dealt us! The series have been great love stories and warming to the heart. The entire series had just enough romance and was presented in a very tasteful manner. Thank you.

Good but.......

I did listen to this entire book and liked it all right.... But this book (as well as many others) is really not accurate for the time. I detest it when authors say something like She was so absorbed in this thing that she couldn't pay attention to the other. Balderdash!! No one would be so absorbed in (for example) the coldness of a lake, that they would not realize the buttons of their chemise were opened and a man sucking on their nipples!! Also, most"ton" ladies would be so absorbed in propriety that they would not even allow a deep kiss - especially not a seduction! Yet all of these stupid girls allow this to be done to them! Oh, and two other things- romance authors word have you believe that all these handsome Lords and Dukes have very long and wide penises, and the women all have large breasts!! Other than those obvious "leaps of reality", I liked the story of the middle eastern man coming to England to claim his inheritance and the struggles he faced. I never really understood, though, why the girl - Grace - pretended to be a different person - a companion to her friend. That was a dumb premise!

A cover can be deceiving!

I let this one sit in my wish list for a long time… it was the diamond on the word kiss and the feel of the cover. Somehow it felt wrong, modern. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Dozens of times I passed it in my wishlist, and finally I re read the blurb. And I really liked “limb” as a child. I was excited to read her story! And it was WONDERFUL!

This was expertly narrated, creatively crafted and steamingly scorching hot!

Perfect series ending

What a great conclusion to the story of the Meridew diamonds. I enjoyed this series very much. I really did love all of them but this was the best. Filled with romance, grand gestures and lots of love for family and those less fortunate. I will definitely listen to this series agai andn.

Beautiful Romance

I absolutely loved every moment of this book!

It’s a flowing, skillfully woven story, highs and lows elegantly balanced. Grace and Dominic’s relationship is natural, beautiful, and intimate. The supporting characters are loveable.

I’ve been reading this series out of order without realizing it. It would have been nice to begin at the beginning, but each story works as a standalone and a beautiful one.

Narrator Heather Wilds has a gorgeous voice and she manages a wide variety of accents and voices superbly.

I do not doubt that I will enjoy listening to The Perfect Kiss again!

Lovely, love this series.
