Full Synopsis
Frances Hadley has managed her family's estate for years. So why can't she request her own dowry? She'll have to go to London herself and knock some sense into the men interfering in her life. With the nonsense she's dealt with lately, though, there's no way she's going as a woman. A pair of breeches and a quick chop of her red curls, and she'll have much less to worry about . . .

Jack Valentine, third son of the famous Duchess of Love, is through being pursued by pushy young ladies. One particularly determined miss has run him out of his own house party. Luckily the inn has one bed left—Jack just has to share with a rather entertaining red-headed youth. Perhaps the two of them should ride to London together. It will make a pleasant escape from his mother's matchmaking melodrama!

"Abby Craden delivers a well-paced reading of this historical romance with entertaining characters, plenty of danger, action, and the redeeming element of love." ---Library Journal Audio Review

"MacKenzie has penned another humorous Regency-era gem that will get a collective thumbs-up from [fans]." ---Booklist Starred Review

"MacKenzie delights her devoted fans once again with a quick-witted, steamy romp. Add a touch of mystery, and another bright tale of love and laughter is born. An engaging, and meddlesome, cast whips this lusty tale into a perfect heart-holiday treat!" ---RT Book Reviews
