Synopsis

Some matches are made in hell . . .

Joanna Porter loves being one of London's hottest up-and-coming matchmakers. But her heavenly vocation is about to turn into a nuptial nightmare—thanks to the Duke of Crestmont. He's as handsome as he is insufferable and obsessed with all things proper. Matching him would cement Jo's status as England's greatest matchmaker. Except, of course, the impossible-to-please duke refuses all of her most eligible ladies . . . confirming his status as a complete and utter pain in her petticoats.

The Duke of Crestmont can't believe he needs a matchmaker—let alone this spitfire of a woman whose kissable mouth and dancing, impertinent gray eyes tease him ruthlessly. But the people are counting on him to find a duchess. A proper lady with a flawless pedigree and immaculate deportment. So why can't he stop himself from wanting his pert, lively matchmaker . . . instead of the perfect duchess?

Now the entire ton is watching as this determined, audacious matchmaker takes on the most powerful man in London in USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Haymore's lively new Regency romp. And this show might just be the most outrageous one yet . . .

Contains mature themes.

Goodreads review by Chris on August 10, 2022

Unique and steamy. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ One of my favorite types of historical romance is when the author breaks the “rules” of a stereotypical story. Our female main character has a job. As a member of the working class, she finds herself in a unique position when a duke catches her completely by surprise......more

Goodreads review by Maja on September 18, 2022

This was just a miss for me. I didn't connect with the characters, the romance didn't make me swoon and the pacing was bogged down by lengthy descriptions that I ended up skimming most of.
