In Jane Feather's dazzling, irresistible romance, London's most charming
matchmakers are faced with a ruinous lawsuit--and now Prudence, the
brainy, beautiful middle sister, must save them.
Soon after the Duncan sisters' personals service turns a profit, their
controversial newspaper, The Mayfair Lady, offends a powerful
earl--who is now determined to demolish them in court. In dire need of
counsel, the women turn to England's most sought after young barrister.
Sir Gideon Malvern is notorious for his aggressive style--and his love
of a challenge. Spirited Prudence, with her beauty unsuccessfully hidden
behind spectacles and frumpy clothes, provides him with exactly that.
But how in the world will the Duncan sisters be able to afford Gideon's
fee? Prudence proposes a barter: Gideon defends their case; they find
him a bride. It's an exchange of services that even this most cynical
single barrister cannot refuse.
