Aurora Halle McPhee, a girl of humble (some might say unconventional) background, cannot believe her luck when she is betrothed to the dashing, well-bred Harland Podell. Aurora soon learns, however, that the match is too good to be true when the nuptials are interrupted--by the brother of the groom's wife!
Kenyon Warriner, Earl of Windham, is determined to foil that bigamous bounder Podell, before he disgraces another innocent female as he did Kenyon's own sister. The earl will save Miss McPhee's honor.
Even if he must wed her himself...
Barbara Metzger was recommended to me as one of the Regency authors to drown in her books. I picked this one up expecting to be completely hypnotized but this book just wasn’t for me. Yes, it had the love story, two characters you can’t help liking and a good plot but it dragged too much for me. It didn’t engage me and I was disappointed in it.
I’ll keep my eye on other Barbara Metzger books but this one was too average of a read.
