Two debutantes scheme to get their parents to marry only to stumble into love themselves in this romp of an audiobook. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Emily Connelly discuss this fun new historical romance from Emma R. Alban with warm and energetic narrations from Mary Jane Wells and Morag Sims. It’s 1857, and London’s season is about to begin. Wells voices Beth, who is full of unsteady emotion as she enters London society—she must find a suitable match or she and her mother won’t have a home. Sims’s lively voice suits the rowdy Gwen, who takes Beth under her wing. When they spy possible feelings between their parents, they begin to plot, but as they spend more time together, they discover feelings for each other that go deeper than friendship.
