De: Vanessa Riley

Narrado por: Bianca Drew

Frederica Burghley wants to be married by Yuletide. Or else her father will set her up with one of his friends. The bonbon-loving illegitimate daughter of the duke wants to choose her own husband. Advertising in the newspaper seems like the way to go. But a sinister response, with threats against her life, leads her to enlist the help of her very handsome, dear friend Jasper Fitzwilliam, Lord Hartwell.

A father and widower, Jasper is not only tasked with keeping Frederica safe but also with helping his vibrant friend choose a suitable husband. The more he tries to keep the ever-surprising woman alive and find her a good match, the more Jasper realizes he cares for her. The two friends risk their lives for each other, so they should be able to risk their feelings for a chance at a deep and true love together. But he's not looking for marriage and she's not looking for convenience.

Contains mature themes.

Intriguing storyline

Such a different approach to historical romantic fiction. I loved the storyline and was happy to follow. Unfortunately the performance by the narrator was so stilted and cold it just killed the story. Such a waste!

Do or don’t he

It’s hard for some people to show love or / and speak of it. They feel as what they do is enough. Grief in this book is emotional.
