The Matchmaking Matrons of Bath

De: Elena Rosewood

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

She’s looking for love (for everyone else). He’s looking for silence. They’re about to make a lot of noise.

At fifty-two, Beatrice Halloway has escaped her suffocating children for the freedom of Bath. Her mission? To lead the "Matchmaking Society," a boisterous group of widows dedicated to marrying off the city’s youth. She has a plan for everyone—except herself.

At fifty-six, Arthur Penrose has retired to read his books, drink his tea, and avoid people. Unfortunately, his garden wall borders Beatrice’s, and her Society’s giggling meetings are ruining his peace. He wants her to be quiet. She wants him to lighten up.

But when a notorious fortune hunter targets Beatrice’s favorite niece, she needs a shark to catch a shark. She begs Arthur for his legal mind, and he agrees on one condition: she must disband the Society if they fail. To expose the scoundrel, they have to infiltrate the assembly rooms posing as a courting couple.

Now, the woman who loves love and the man who hates chaos are faking a romance that feels alarmingly real. And Arthur is realizing that perhaps the only thing better than a quiet book is a loud, vibrant woman.
