Summary: From award-winning New York Times bestselling author Betina
Krahn comes a beguiling new romance brimming with her signature wit, timeless
sensuality, and thrilling romance—as desire proves to be a great equalizer . .
.
Daisy Bumgarten isn’t
thrilled to be trying to catch a duke’s attention while dressed like a flower
pot caught in a swarm of butterflies. But, after all, when in Rome (or in this
case London society). . . . Since her
decidedly disastrous debut among New York’s privileged set, the sassy Nevada
spitfire’s last chance to “marry well” lies across the pond, here in
England. If she must restrain her free
spirit, not to mention her rib cage, so be it. She knows she owes it to her
three younger sisters to succeed . . .
Now, under a countess’s
tutelage, Daisy appears the perfect duchess-in-training . . . Until notorious
ladies’ man Lord Ashton Graham, a distraction of the most dangerous kind,
glimpses her mischievous smile and feisty nature—and attempts to unmask her
motives. Daisy has encountered snakes on the range, but one dressed to the
nines in an English drawing room is positively unnerving—and maddeningly
seductive. When a veiled plot emerges to show up Daisy as unworthy of the
aristocracy, will Ashton be her worst detractor? Or the nobleman she needs most
of all?
Angie’s comments: Another good historical romance by Betina Krahn. The book has a
lot of humor, and the characters are strong, full of spirits, and enjoyable to
meet. Family is an important part of this story.
Recommended for readers of humorous historical
romances.
