Goodreads Description:When you're the oldest daughter, you don't get to have any fun!
Witty, orphaned Tess Essex faces her duty: marry well and marry quickly, so she can arrange matches for her three sisters -- beautiful Annabel, romantic Imogen and practical Josie. After all, right now they're under the rather awkward guardianship of the perpetually tipsy Duke of Holbrook. But just when she begins to think that all might end well, one of her sisters bolts with a horse-mad young lord, and her own fiancé just plain runs away.
Which leaves Tess contemplating marriage to the sort of man she wishes to avoid -- one of London's most infamous rakes. Lucius Felton is a rogue whose own mother considers him irredeemable! He's delicious, Annabel points out. And he's rich, Josie notes. But although Tess finally consents to marry him, it may be for the worst reason of all. Absurd as she knows it to be, she may have fallen utterly in love . . .
My Rating: 4.5 out of 5
My Review:
I really enjoyed this book. It wasn't just a fluff romance but had depth and made me feel a wide range of emotions. I also highly enjoyed the different stories of the sisters intermingling with in this book. You get a glimpse of each sister, their personality, and you form a opinion and connection to them all. Great tactic cause it draws you in to want to read the other books in the Bride Quartet to see what happens to the other sisters. At least it has for me! I can't wait to see what happens with Annabel, Josie, and most importantly Imogen. I won't give any spoilers but my heart breaks for her and I hope she finds happiness in one of the other books. YET AGAIN another wonderful Eloisa James book!
