Three sisters with unconventional parents who let their daughters marry for love...with the help of their matchmaker mother who works very hard not to be noticeably playing a role in their choices. Violet's practical nature was vexing many times but she eventually loosened up! Lily took a while to realize her happiness would lead to the happiness of others...and she ultimately is worried about the happiness of everyone else. And finally Rose...she really was a bit silly for quite a while but Kit is so likable I got through it until she finally wised up! The girls' father, the Earl of Trentingham, is hard of hearing and his frequent mutterings are funny (my dad is hard of hearing and my husband is getting there so it hit my sense of humor perfectly.) I  have read the other two trilogies by Lauren Royal and also enjoyed them immensely. What works for me with Royal's books is the way she weaves in real people, places and events throughout her stories. And it doesn't hurt that she writes some pretty romantic and steamy encounters between her couples! I'm sure I will be visiting some of my favorite characters again until she releases her next book.
