Set in New York City’s Gilded Age, Joanna Shupe’s first book in her Four Hundred series features an English beauty with a wicked scheme to win the man she loves—and the American scoundrel who ruins her best laid plans…
Lady Honora Parker must get engaged as soon as possible, and only a particular type of man will do. Nora seeks a mate so abhorrent, so completely unacceptable, that her father will reject the match—leaving her free to marry the artist she loves. Who then is the most appalling man in Manhattan? The wealthy, devilishly handsome financier, Julius Hatcher, of course….
Julius is intrigued by Nora’s ruse and decides to play along. But to Nora’s horror, Julius transforms himself into the perfect fiancé, charming the very people she hoped he would offend. It seems Julius has a secret plan all his own—one that will solve a dark mystery from his past, and perhaps turn him into the kind of man Nora could truly love.

One of the best written books. Particularly loved that the main characters were smart, direct and actually talked to each other. Narrator is my favorite, she makes books come to life and half the reason why I loved it!

Det här är nog en de bästa historiska romans-böcker jag läst (lyssnat på). Det går faktiskt att relatera till den kvinnliga karaktären. Hon är självständig och stark utan att det blir överdrivet som i så många böcker. Den manliga karaktären är helt klart en alpha men utan all toxic masculinity som det ofta innebär i andra böcker. Det bästa är dock att de faktiskt pratar med varandra, och löser sina problem på ett vuxet sätt. Jag himlade med ögonen kanske två gånger under den här boken i jämförelse med 15-20 som det brukar vara när jag läser sådana här böcker. Sist men inte minst; uppläsaren är grymt bra!

Rolig, romantiskt och en del spice. Men framförallt är denna uppläsare i toppklass, som alltid.
