      Highlander romance author Forester (True Highland Spirit) populates her witty first Regency romance with scene-stealingly smart characters. Debutante Eugenia Talbot has ruined her life by laughing during her presentation to Queen Charlotte. Since the rake William Grant winked at Genie and caused her unseemly merriment, he feels obliged to save her from becoming a pariah by assisting with her acceptance into society. Genie’s vibrant sense of humor and kindness are so infectious that soon William is doing unexpectedly generous things like taking a street urchin into his home. William is on the verge of proposing marriage to Genie when an unexpected twist tangles the duo in a game of espionage, and they’ll need their combined wit and humor to survive. Engaging subplots involving unforgettable supporting characters make this one a must-read. Agent: Barbara Poelle, Irene Goodman Agency.

      Starred review from April 15, 2013
      Fans of Regency-era romances will be delighted with Forester's first novel set in that milieu. This clever combination of wit, romance, and suspense strikes all the right notes as Genie, fresh from the county for her debut, fails to stifle her laughter when she is being presented to the queen just as Lord Chamberlain chooses that moment to blow a little foul wind. A man winks and smiles at her, reducing her to further laughter and ruining any possibility of her having a successful season. The man in question, Mr. Grant, a notorious rake, is a close friend of the Duke of Marchford, who is engaged to Genie's cousin, so it is inevitable that they will meet again. Forester throws in an amazing array of Regency-romance tropes: a dowager duchess with plans up her sleeve, a spinster who becomes her companion and business partner, a lovable street rat, a Fagin-like villain, a secret marriage, a spy in the service of Napol'on, secret codes, clandestine romance. And she more than does justice to them all. This entertaining novel is a diamond of the first order.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2013, American Library Association.)
