Synopsis

She had a long way to go from the wedding to becoming a wife.When Lady Anne Sinclair vowed to marry before her spoiled beauty of a sister, she had no idea the "anyone" would be the Marquess of Torrance. Long the darling of the ton—and considered quite the confirmed bachelor—he succumbed to Annie's charms and, almost magically, made her his wife. But Annie's lifelong battle for attention had ill-prepared her for married life. In a tipsy reverie on her wedding night, she blurted out her real reason for marrying the Marquess, and her husband's formidable pride shut the door on any further communication.Only a crisis of major proportions could bring the headstrong newlyweds together. And no less than the chancellor of the exchequer, with sinister political ambitions known only to himself, embroiled Annie in a dangerous plot that taught her the truth about her wifely sentiments.

Definitely better than the two previous ones. Funnier (Tommy Cartwright at the end was as a cherry on the top), more interesting (descriptions of armies and wars were fascinating, Chesney had a way to tell them with a subtle, hidden cry about its unfairness and harshness). Again, I would have liked t......more

I don't know if I can pin down exactly why, but so far this is my favourite book in the series. There was way less time spent on the romance, and yet it was one of the better ones.

The third installment in the tales of the Beverly sisters of Mannerling, this one was more enjoyable than the other books, with an intelligent (if wild and impetuous) sister to wed off, and a peek more into Miss Trumble's history.......more
