Publisher's Summary

A Victorian bluestocking with a passion for lost causes attracts the unwilling attention of a frost-hearted viscount during her tumultuous debut season in Bath in USA Today best-selling author Mimi Matthews’ fifth book in her acclaimed Somerset Stories series.

West Country beauty Hannah Heywood may be quiet with fashionable strangers, but when it comes to animals in need, she has no trouble finding her voice. Newly arrived in Bath for her very first season, all she desires is to find one like-minded gentleman. A man of warmth and compassion, as sensitive to animals as he is to people. But if such a man exists, he dare not approach her. Not with the tall, blond, and menacing Viscount St. Clare standing in the way.

James Beresford, Viscount St. Clare, has often been described as a sentient block of ice. A man so cold and dispassionate, he would never suit a young lady of Hannah’s disposition. And she would certainly never suit him. Focused on repairing his family’s infamous reputation, James requires a diamond of the first water. The daughter of a duke or a marquess, at least, not a simple country girl with a passion for four-legged creatures.

And yet, there’s something about conscience-driven young Hannah that draws James, first to Bath, and then into one increasingly hare-brained scheme after another. She confounds him at every turn, subverting his expectations and threatening to do what no lady has succeeded in doing before—thawing his ice-cold heart.

Short but sweet

I have read all the books in this series, and loved them so much, I was so excited to download the new one. This one brings together James and Hannah, the children of Arthur and Phyllida book one, and Nicholas and Maggie from book 2. This is quite a short story and at one point was disappointed it nearly had an identical proposal scene as in pride and prejudice. I did like the story and the characters, however I feel it had already been done before. It felt very rushed, I wish the Author could have given this a little more time and a bit more substance. Overall I enjoyed it and will still look forward to reading Mimi Mattherson next book.
