Publisher's summary

Lady Madalene Ramsbury has been summoned home from Miss Bell’s Finishing School to some unfortunate news. In three weeks, she is to be married to a man she’s never met. Rather than face a life she does not want; she flees from her own engagement party and elicits help from a most unlikely source.

Society’s golden boy, Everett, the Marquess of Northampton, was outraged when a young woman suddenly appeared in his curricle. Was she attempting to trap him into an unwanted marriage? It would be just like some overzealous mother to put her up to such a ploy. However, it doesn’t take long for him to discover that Madalene is unlike any woman he has ever known.

With her reputation in shambles, Lady Madalene and Everett hatch a plan to solve both of their problems, a fake engagement. But as they spend time together, they realize more is on the line than just a blossoming friendship. And with danger ever present from her jilted suitor, Everett and Madalene find themselves relying on one another in ways they’d never imagined… but can they trust each other with their hearts?

As the first novel in this series by author Laura Beers, this story begins the Regency Brides: A Promise of Love series. This is a light-hearted series set in the Regency period.

The series includes:

Prequel Novella: The Heiress (Ladies of Miss Bell's Finishing School)

The Reluctant Guardian
A Noble Pursuit
The Earl's Daughter

A Foolish Game


Other books by Laura Beers include the The Beckett Files, Sweet Regency Matchmakers and the Regency Spies & Secrets.

Too many loopholes

Ridiculous storyline and dialogue. The narration wasn't that bad for me. I have had real narrators who were worse.

Predictable yet sweet tale, unfortunate about the auto narrative :o(

Liked the book but probably will not listen again. The Virtual Voice narration creates a flat story with petty sounding characters. Would enjoy the tale with a real voice actor.

Very Good!

I liked this story although predictable , the lead characters are endearing, especially the female character. The virtual voice narration isn’t my favorite but it wasn’t that bad, I’ve listened to much worse narration from real live people. Overall a good book.

Lovely story, virtual narration gets old fast

I enjoy the quick and fun read that this author provides. When I began reading I didn’t mind the virtual reader, but about half way through the book I was so tired of the unvaried reading style. The lack of emotional responses made the story a little less enjoyable. That said, I recommend the story. Ms. Beers writes enjoyable clean historical romance!
