Historical Romance
Rating: 4 Cups
Lady Olivia is beautiful and is the daughter of a duke. Her sisters have brought scandal to the family and she is determined to be their opposite.
Edward Wolcott is the illegitimate son of a wealthy financier. He wants to make his father happy, but thinks it is an impossible task.
Lord Carson was jilted by Olivia’s sister, but Olivia sees him as the perfect spouse. Carson asks her to help his good friend Edward find an eligible lady to marry. Helpful Olivia readily agrees, but as she gets to know Edward, she wonders if Lord Carson is really her ideal match.
This is a well written and enjoyable Historical romance. The author has a very good grasp of the time period and the customs of that time, yet her characters and their actions are relatable to modern times as well. Olivia has had too much responsibility thrust upon her and seems to think that she has to redeem her family’s reputation all on her own. Edward is grateful to his father for the acceptance that his mother’s family failed to provide and wants to make him happy, but a bastard has little chance of making it in high society no matter how much money he has. Bennett Carson is an interesting character who deserves his own happy ending. I hope to be reading about that in the next installment of this series.
