Sylvia Bryant has spent six years at the Wallflower Academy and had enough of the embroidery, etiquette, and expectations. Finally, the chance to escape falls into her lap, or rather, she fell into his. Caught in a precarious position while trying to commandeer his carriage, Sylvia and Theodore are forced to enter a fake engagement. The facade grants Theodore the freedom to move through society seeking his father, while Sylvia gets the chance to plan her return to Antigua, but will they be able to let each other go when it’s done?
VERDICT This third installment in Murdoch’s (More Than a Match for the Earl) “Wallflower Academy” series is a wonderfully steamy Regency romance.
