Miss Celine Fairweather and her younger sister Dorothy have moved to London to be with their married sister Penelope who is 8 months pregnant with her first child.  Sensible Celine has come to take over the running of the household.  Shortly after arriving, she wonders why some gentlemen are carrying a dead man into the house.  He is deposited on the rug and soon begins to snore.  Looks like the "dead man" had too much to drink!  Never have I read about a pregnant lady punching a drunkard for looking at her bosom!  Things just keep happening.  What meal would be complete without the host setting his beard on fire?Things to ponder:  What type of pet has Dorothy found?  Why are all the cooks being kidnapped and returned?  What is Celine searching for in the library late at night and will Viscount Elmer assist her in this search?This sequel to Penelope is another of those zany regency romps that we have come to expect from Anya Wylde.  The story is full of silliness and impending disasters. The author weaves a complicated tale of many plots that come out just fine in the end.  It is laugh out loud funny and a fast read.  I hope Anya is planning and plotting her next book because I can't wait to see what is going to happen next to the Fairweather Sisters.  If you are looking for a lighthearted fun read, then you should be reading Seeking Philbert Woodbead.FTC Full Disclosure - A copy of this book was sent to me by the author in hopes I would review it. However, receiving the complimentary copy did not influence my review.
