Publisher Description
With two elder sisters making their ways in the world, Honoria Staunton feels left behind. She decides that leaving Longstone village is the only way forward and boards the first train to London, knowing it means reconciling with her grandfather and marrying whichever suitor he has selected for her.
Due to a handshake agreement by his late parents, Philip, Marquess of Hardingstone, is duty-bound to wed his guardian’s daughter. He journeys to London with a heavy heart, struggling to prepare for this inevitable betrothal, while the effervescent beauty seated across from him represents everything he’s ever wanted in a partner—and the future he is unwilling to compromise.
The two travelers hatch a mad scheme to marry each other, but find their engagement is anything but convenient. When family and responsibilities stand in the way of love, will Philip and Honoria have the strength to go through with their plan?
Customer Reviews
Plots hatched on trains are so much fun
If you enjoyed the first two books in the series, you’ll enjoy this one too. The third sister, Honoria, feels left behind and feels she has no other choice but to turn to the grandfather the family has avoided. There are plenty of twists and turns in the plot and it was great to see her sisters and their partners again. I loved the characters but did feel that the boundaries were pushed a little too much in a couple of places. Although Honoria was the focus of the book, i found Philip’s story to be just as enjoyable although we were never told what would become of Philip’s marquessate. Will there be another book to address that? I hope so.
