Publisher's summary

Three of the brightest stars of historical romance invite you to a party at the country home of the Honorable Marquess of Finchley.

Hugh Dunne, the Earl of Briarly, needs a wife, so his sister hands him a list of delectable damsels and promises to invite them and a few other gentlemen to her country house for what is sure to be the event of the season.

Hugh will have time to woo whichever lady he most desires . . .Unless someone else snatches her first.

The invitation list includes:

• The horse-mad but irresistibly handsome Earl of Briarly
• The always outspoken Miss Katherine Peyton
• The dashing war hero Captain Neill Oakes
• The impossibly beautiful (and painfully shy) Miss Gwendolyn Passmore
• The terribly eligible new Earl of Charters
• The widowed Lady Georgina Sorrell (who has no plans to marry, ever)

And your hostess, Lady Carolyn Finchley, an irrepressible matchmaker who plans to find the lady most likely . . .to capture her brother's untamed heart.

Silly and light

It was a silly and light romance, I thoroughly enjoyed the frivolity of it. I wish more of Quinn’s novels had this much fun

A fun read.

Julia Quinn is one of my favorite authors. I love her sense of humor! I like to be entertained when I read (listen to) a book, and I was entertained! I grinned through most of this book, and I'm sure I laughed out loud a time or two. The authors' style thoughout flows so well, I am looking forward to reading James' and Brockway's books. (I've read and re-read all Julia Quinn's books!)

Enjoyable,lighthearted, story

Is there anything you would change about this book?

No

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Ended as expected for a romance

What didn’t you like about Rosalyn Landor’s performance?

I could barely listen all the way through because of this narrator. All of the female characters sounded like they were 40-50 years old instead of young women in their teens/early 20's. The men all sounded like old men sitting around a table at their club, stuffy, no emotional range and old. I do not like this narrator and usually do not buy audiobooks she narrates. I had just listened to the second in the series of these books that was narrated by Susan Duerden(sp.) and just assumed she was the narrator.

I felt all the lighthearted interplay between characters was destroyed, because they all sounded so stuffy and old!

I was very glad that I had gotten this book on sale and had not used a credit for it.

What would have made this romance irresistible?

A different narrator

One of my favorites!!!!!

I LOVE this book! The characters were wonderful and the three romances delightful. I smiled most of the time while listening. Get it, it'll be worth it.

Cute story

It’s a fun story. I’m just not a fan of how quickly the perspective changes. It also irks me when writers start at the end the flashback.

Delightful

The three talented author ladies did a great job in creating stories that made me laugh & made my heart happy.

I Dunno

The best thing about this book was the narrator (Rosalyn Landor). I can't say I really enjoyed it much, it was ok I guess on the other hand, I'm an avid Lisa Kleypas & Julie Garwood listener/reader which means, I always seem to compare their work with other modern day historical romance novelist. Putting it bluntly, no one have yet to measure up. Nice try though.

good fun

This book was written by 3 of my favorite regency romance authors. It was guranteed fun read and it surely was entertaining. Unfortunetly, that was about it. The setting, characters, situation are all something we have read before and nothing really unique. I would recommend the other books the authors have written, before trying this book.

Nice and light!

this was a quick listen and I bought it because of the narator mostly. I enjoyed it, however this would have been a good anthology, I did not like that 3 authors are writing the same story even if there are different couples involved.

Not very good

I delight in Julia Quinn' books but this story from three different authors had me confused and trying to keep up. The only thing going for the book was the narrator, I love Rosalyn! Spare yourself and listen to something else . I finished listening to the entire book but I wish I would have not purchased it.
