If you love Julia Quinn's Bridgerton, you'll fall head over heels for Sabrina Jeffries!
'Anyone who loves romance must read Sabrina Jeffries!' Lisa Kleypas, New York Times bestselling author
The Designing Debutantes have arrived, and they're taking the ton by storm...
As a viscount's heir, Rafe Wolfford knows he must take a wife someday, but she must be the right sort of wife, and one that won't delve into his escapades as a spy. One thing is for certain: the forthright and perceptive Lady Verity is altogether the wrong choice. But Rafe is on a mission to discover whether Verity or anyone else at Elegant Occasions is leaking information to the French, and so he commences a faux courtship, determined to keep his real feelings out of it . . .
With one disastrous engagement behind her, Verity won't easily open her heart again, and although Rafe's charm catches her off guard, she knows he's harbouring secrets. But when Verity's ex-fiancé tries to ruin her reputation, Rafe offers his hand, and she has little choice but to accept.
Only trust can turn this accidental arrangement into a true marriage. But when both parties are so highly suspicious of the other, who will dare surrender first?
For more dazzlingly romantic and witty historical romance, don't miss Sabrina's other gorgeous series including the Duke Dynasty series, The Sinful Suitors, The Hellions of Halstead Hall, The School for Heiresses and The Royal Brotherhood.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Sparks fly between Lady Verity Harper and Col. Rafe Wolfford in Jeffries's scintillating third Designing Debutantes Regency romance (after What Happens in the Ballroom). The pair meet at a charity auction that Verity organized with Elegant Occasions, the party planning business she and her sisters started after their parents' scandalous divorce made them social pariahs. Rafe attends the event in hopes of insinuating himself into Verity's inner circle and rooting out if someone in her family is a spy for the French. Intrigued, Verity invites Rafe to a seaside house party. Also in attendance is Verity's slimy former beau, Lord Minton, who takes her into a bedroom and kisses her against her will. Though Rafe has a longtime aversion to marriage, he steps in to protect Verity's reputation by claiming that they are already engaged. Though Rafe is reluctant to surrender his heart to Verity, he can't deny his attraction to her and sets out to be a good husband. But what will happen when Verity learns the truth about why they met? Verity is a formidable heroine whose refusal to be cowed by anyone is sure to endear her to readers. The hint of espionage and mystery adds allure to the romance. It's hard to put this down.
