Description

Some matches are made in hell…

Joanna Porter loves being one of London’s hottest up-and-coming matchmakers. But her heavenly vocation is about to turn into a nuptial nightmare—thanks to the Duke of Crestmont. He’s as handsome as he is insufferable and obsessed with all things proper. Matching him would cement Jo’s status as England’s greatest matchmaker. Except, of course, the impossible-to-please duke refuses all of her most eligible ladies…confirming his status as a complete and utter pain in her petticoats.

The Duke of Crestmont can’t believe he needs a matchmaker—let alone this spitfire of a woman whose kissable mouth and dancing, impertinent gray eyes tease him ruthlessly. But the people of his estate are counting on him to find a duchess. A proper lady with a flawless pedigree and immaculate deportment. So why can’t he stop himself from wanting his pert, lively matchmaker…instead of the perfect duchess?

Now the entire ton is watching as this determined, audacious matchmaker takes on the most powerful man in London in USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Haymore’s lively new Regency romp. And this show might just be the most outrageous one yet…

Each book in The Lions and Lilies series is STANDALONE:

4.5 Stars!!

4.5 Stars! Loved it!! This author got me so invested in the outcome of not only the main characters, Jo and Mathew, but now I want to read about the secondary characters too. I especially loved the HEA ending & epilogue! Maybe it’s because I’ve read a lot of romance books and have pretty much read it all in terms of ‘sexy time’ scenes but now I tend to skim through those parts, not really interested. Other than that, this book had me wanting to sit around and read it all day & to H, E, double hockey sticks(LL) with family time or food. I really enjoyed the witty banter between Jo & Mathew and was rooting for them to get it together. I’m definitely recommending this to anyone that enjoys historical romance. This is the first time I’ve read this author but it won’t be the last!
