Adeline Wivenly plans to avoid rakes at all costs during her debut Season in London, particularly the flirtatious Fredrick, Lord Littleton. Frits earned himself an ignoble reputation having realized too late the woman he’d pursued was a terrible match. Now he’s taking his time to be sure a lady’s interests align with his own. Yet when he first sees Adeline, his instincts to rush forward once again take over, despite her frosty rebuke. Competing for her affections with the enigmatic Earl of Anglesey, Frits begins to second guess himself, and persuading Adeline that Frits is worth taking a chance will be a challenge for even the formidable Maximus the Great Dane.
VERDICT With a love triangle, a protective Great Dane, and meddling mothers, this new Regency series launch brings on the drama but is filled with tenderness. Readers who recognize characters from Quinn’s earlier “Marriage Game” series (Enticing Miss Eugenie Villaret) will be especially rewarded.
