Rating: 4 out of 5

This book was delightful. It is the meeting of the Duke of Avondale and his estranged wife Belle Anderson that is the heart of this very engaging little story. Lady Hathaway is hosting a houseparty but before the guests even arrive, things aren't going to plan.Ollie and Belle had been married a month when they separated. All the Ton were aware that they weren't invited to the same  functions. Unaware both Oliver and Belle arrive at Lady Hathaways. Of course the nosiest, busybody in London Lady Dempster is on hand to spread the gossip and muddy the waters much to her delight.This book is written in a light and breezy manner with a cast of very entertaining characters. There is a lovely vein of humour throughout the book as Ollie strives to win Belle back. I liked Oliver he was quite at a loss and bewildered by Belle at times but he perserved.Well written and a joyful read.
