description: "...considerably more wit and pizazz than the legendary Georgette [Heyer] herself.” —Kirkus ReviewsMiss Gillian Spencer is faced with an impossible challenge—to rescue the Viscount Sherbourne's standing. To do so, she’ll have to find wealthy husbands for his two charming and beautiful daughters. Without a farthing at the Viscount's command and his London house in ruins, Miss Spencer’s matchmaking work is certainly cut out for her. At the advanced age of twenty-seven, Gillian had dismissed the possibility of marriage for herself, of course—but who can predict where her talent for romantic intrigue on others’ behalf might lead her?
