Carrie first meets Lord Avery Gilmore when he is escorting a lady into her shop to try on her bonnets. She assumes he is an escort of a very different nature when in reality he just takes a cut of the sale. He is quite offended when later on she suggests she should pay him to take her out etc. Eventually Redford finds out about the women’s venture and insists it is shut down. Carrie has just turned down Avery’s proposal but realised she will be able to continue if she marries him. They love each other but just won’t admit it! Will they get their HEA or will misunderstandings stand in the way of their happiness?
I enjoyed this book immensely. Carrie is not the traditional historical romance heroine. Tall, stubborn, determined to be self sufficient after being let down by her husband, and from a trade background whilst Avery is a gambler, womaniser and estranged from his father who is a Duke. The characters work well together and there is humour abound in the book. I look forward to reading the other books in this mini series.
