Back to the Marrywell matchmaking Festival, but Gladys Bell does not have the same luck as Sadie Campton did in the first book. This is her last chance to find a husband at the festival, before her dowry is given to her younger sister. But unlike her beautiful sister, Gladys is short and plain. Due to a misunderstanding, she believes that the notorious rake, Reuben Medford, is going to offer for her, but he believes that she is already engaged. She ends up ruined and disowned by her family. Homes and all alone, she is reduced to prostitution, which she ends up being quite good at. Five years later, wealthy and beautiful, she comes back to the the Merrywell Festival for revenge, but finds out that Reuben is not the rake that everyone thinks, that he is really insecure and doesn't think anyone will tolerate him for more than one night and he has not forgotten their interlude. As always, the author's wit shines through the story, with witty banter, likable characters and an engaging plot. I read an ARC provided by the author. This is my unbiased and voluntary review.
