Giles Sinclair, future Duke of Harpenden, has a secret about his parentage that is on the precipice of being exposed, and if he doesn’t determine the truth, it will ruin lives. Diana Merriwell would be the ideal candidate to help, but Giles and Diana tend to do nothing but nettle each other, which has led their friends and family to assume some matchmaking is in order. Giles won’t consider a relationship with anyone, however, given his uncertain future, and Diana is quite content on her own. Diana’s skill in digging for information and exposing society’s wrongs has led to her secret role as a journalist for the local paper. When she learns of Giles’ secret, she knows she can help. As their time to solve the mystery ticks down, they will have to overcome meddling sisters, secret rendezvous, long-lost family members, and the growing suspicion their families’ assumptions about their relationship may be correct.
VERDICT Heath’s engaging second book in the “Merriwell Sisters” series (following Never Fall for Your Fiancée) flips the script and gives readers a lovable duke in distress who needs to be rescued by a smart and witty heroine.
