With her third London season drawing to a close, the shy Eliza Malcolm seems unlikely to find any husband, let alone a titled one. But when the hunting-crazed Duke of Brockenhurst invites the Malcolms to visit Harrowhaven, Eliza’s father jumps at the chance to gain a wealthy son-in-law. Surrounded by quarreling parents, tactless acquaintances, the aloof dowager, and the unsettling duke, Eliza looks for one person kind enough to help her navigate the murky waters of Harrowhaven’s secrets….

Estranged from his brother the duke, Henry Rowland only planned to visit Harrowhaven for the afternoon, but after meeting his brother’s intended, his designs are overthrown. As misfortune strikes Harrowhaven, Jacob Pevensey is called in to investigate. Henry learns that the only way to safeguard Eliza Malcolm’s happiness is to face the past he has been running from for ten long years.

Review: The regency period is my favorite time for historical romance. I don't know why. Maybe it is because this time period was the first that I read when I started reading romances ages and ages ago.

This was a great book. It was a fun read. It was everything I love about regency novels without getting too bogged down with unnecessary story that drags on and on.

I loved Henry and Eliza and the mystery was fun enough to keep the pages turning. I gobbled this book up in one day, which is hard for me to do these days.

I absolutely adored this author and look forward to reading more from her in the future.
