Book Synopsis

The third book in M.C. Beaton's charming A House for the Season series.

It's double trouble for poor, put-upon Harriet!

Lovely but penniless Harriet Metcalf is horrified when she is named in a nobleman's will as guardian of his two ghastly and snobbish twin daughters. The innocent Harriet doesn't feel wily enough to cope with the intricacies of the London Season - not to mention two of its most eligible bachelors, the Marquis of Huntington and Lord Vere.

Harriet views them only as suitors for the twins, while the gentlemen see only Harriet's charms. And soon she finds herself falling for one of them... but a cruel betrayal will be her ruin unless the Clarges Street servants can save her honour, while she loses her heart!

'Romance fans are in for a treat' - Booklist

'[M. C. Beaton] is the best of the Regency writers' - Kirkus Reviews
