Beschreibung des Verlags
A Marquis sets out to seduces a society matchmaker in a Regency romance with a mix of “the supernatural, a dash of glamour, and multiple layers of scandal” (Publishers Weekly).
With her psychic talents, matchmaker Sophie Reynard has helped plenty of highborn friends meet their perfect mate. But as the unrecognized daughter of an Earl, she sees no future in falling in love with an aristocrat. And yet, all the good sense in the world can't stop her from succumbing to one evening of anonymous passion when a dashing Marquis saves her from drowning in a Venice canal.
Nicholas Tenbury, Marquess of Ancroft, knows nothing of Sophie's lineage. He knows only that the enchanting beauty captured his heart in one night and then fled, leaving no trace of her identity. But when he seeks answers from London's finest matchmaker, he finds none other than the woman herself—stubbornly refusing to acknowledge the attraction they share. Now the enamored Marquess has no choice but to sway Sophie with seduction.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Sophie Reynard's ability to see into the future makes her the perfect matchmaker. This talent has given her a way into 19th-century London society, even though she's an earl's unrecognized bastard daughter. However, when Sophie tries to find her own true love, all she sees is black. Without supernatural guidance, can she trust her attraction to Lord Nicholas Ancroft after he saves her from drowning in a Venice canal? As their mutual friends plot to bring them together, Sophie believes she must resist her own feelings and find a more socially appropriate match for Nicholas. Kelley (Something Scandalous) tosses in a little bit of everything: the supernatural, a dash of glamour, and multiple layers of scandal and scheming. Sophie's obstinacy makes her a strong (though sometimes frustrating) heroine, and readers will stick with her to the end.
