Can the matchmaking Brightwell sisters avoid scandal and disaster in their efforts to reunite two star-crossed lovers?
When Miss Eliza Montrose’s extraordinary bravery wins her the respect of matchmaking queens Fanny and Antoinette Brightwell, the sisters and their bumbling brother hatch a plan to find a worthier suitor for the young woman they’d initially disliked — a kind, honourable man they know is madly in love with her.
But Eliza has her own reasons for agreeing to marry the Brightwells’ selfish, self-absorbed cousin, George Bramley. Reasons that have nothing to do with love! If it's the only way to be reunited with the love child she was forced to give up after a youthful indiscretion, Eliza will marry anyone!
Unfortunately, while the Brightwell siblings have acted with the best of intentions, fixing the outcome of a certain cunning wager has most unfortunate consequences.
Buy now to see if Eliza finds the love she deserves.
