Thank heavens for Sophie Irwin, who puts a brisk, modern, savagely funny spin on a vintage storyline. Overwhelmed by her late father’s massive debt and with younger sisters to look after, orphaned Kitty Talbot needs a rich husband. And, like a wolf in crêpe skirts, she plans to make lamb chops—matrimonially speaking—out of one of the ton’s eligible bachelors. When her ruthless fortune-hunting is thwarted by Lord Radcliffe, the aloof older brother of her intended target, matters take a surprising turn. And not just around the drawing room.
