About this listen

A horse race in trousers on Rotten Row. Visiting a gaming hall in a dress that would make her mother faint. Sneaking an invitation to a masquerade ball attended by only the wickedest, most debauched members of society....

None of these things are scaring off bookish but strong-willed Amelia Bishop's stuffy, egotistical fiance.

The only thing left is to entice childhood friend Nicholas Wakefield into a truly engagement-ending scandal. The Wakefields are the height of propriety, and Nicholas's parents have made it clear a wife from the neighboring Bishop family would be unacceptable....

But Nicholas would give up his family and his fortune if Amelia would ever see him as more than just a childhood friend. He'll go along with her scheme, even if it means ruining them both, because he's got a plan that will change her mind about him being merely the boy next door.

Contains mature themes.

Lovely period piece, I am quite brutal with books and ditch them fairly quickly if not up to par. That said, I really liked this story. Meant to be sleeping, yet I am finding it very hard to put it down. Well done to the Author and Narrator.

Thoroughly Enjoyable
