About this listen

 The final book in M.C. Beaton's charming A House for the Season series.

Love comes home to A House for the Season!

When the Duke of Pelham returns to his town house at 67 Clarges Street he is grimly determined to find himself a suitable wife, and love will have nothing to do with his selection.

The duke's search is soon disrupted by the arrival in town of Miss Jenny Sutherland - a beautiful but hugely spoilt country girl whose vanity is overwhelming. In fact it was her guardian who brought her to London in the hope her ward will get the put-down she so sorely deserves. But no one had counted on the intervention of Rainbird, the duke's shrewd and resourceful butler. Befriending Jenny, they devise a mischievous scheme that will ensure Jenny's social success - and secure, once and for all, the fate of the close-knit family of servants at No. 67 Clarges Street!

Critic Reviews

Nicely atmospheric, most notable for its gentle humour and adventurous spirit.

This is the last in the series A House for the Season. As a book it could stand alone, but if you have the chance to read/listen to them all, do so - they are wonderful. This book is more about the members of staff and what happens to them, although, as with all of the other books, there is another romantic story within. A great read and fitting finish to the series, superbly written and narrated.

Love this series!

While the romance story is less prominent in this volume the stories of the servants are fully flushed out & tied up nicely.
