I've read all of the Lady Julia Grey books; they are among my favorites. In the first book, Silent in the Grave, Lady Julia meets Nicholas Brisbane, a private enquiry agent investigating her husband's death. They fall in love, marry, and go on to further adventures, with Lady Julia trying to help Brisbane in his profession and Brisbane trying to protect her from danger.We never got to see their wedding, however, but this short novella solves that problem delightfully. We see lots of Lady Julia's eccentric family, and even some of Brisbane's Roma relatives. Although the story is quite complete in itself, I would not recommend this book if you haven't read at least the first story. Preferably, the first three. (These are included in The Lady Julia Grey Bundle, only US$9.99 for the Kindle version. A bargain price for three full-length novels!)If you like mysteries and you like romance, the Lady Julia Grey books are a wonderful combination of both; more mystery than romance really, but the presence of the swoonworthy Brisbane makes what romance there is glorious.
