About this listen

'If you're girding your loins for Bridgerton, you may want to indulge in this Regency romp' - THE TIMES

Summer, 1817: Will this be the wedding... or the scandal of the season?

Sir Dominic De Lacy – one of the season’s most eligible gentlemen – has recently proposed marriage… to a woman he scarcely knows. But his father’s choice for him, Miss Maria Nightingale, seems amiable, and at 29, Dominic cannot live the life of a bachelor forever. He hopes he can provide a happy future for her as they learn to care for each other.

Maria, however, has other ideas. Midway through their engagement celebrations, she confesses to Dominic that she is not Maria at all, but her identical twin sister, Margaret. Maria has disappeared, and Margaret’s been persuaded to take her place until she’s found – and for that she needs Dominic’s help. The pair quickly find they make a formidable team, but with just three weeks to avoid the biggest scandal of the season, time is against them.

But even if they find Maria, can they really hope the wedding will happen? Because, as they are starting to realise, chemistry can’t be arranged – and Sir Dominic might just be engaged to the wrong Miss Nightingale…

I couldn't work out if it was the author or narrator so marked both down.
Throughout the book the main female character was repeatedly called he. In scenes with a man and the girl this confused which of the two characters was meant. eg 'he said he' ... Did the author mean 'she said he: or ' he said she'?
This audiobook needed a decent editor.
