Louisa Cox is a wealthy heiress tired of fortune hunters chasing after her money. Paul Sheldon is a barrister who hardley had enough money to pay his way to visit his parent's estate during the summer. Paul's mother joins a group of concerned "mama's" in a effort to find matches for all their unmarried single adults. She recruits Louisa as a possible match for her son. Paul and his friends discover their mothers' schemes and decide they must try to thwart them at all costs. Things get complicated when Paul actually starts to like Louisa. She likes him too, especially because he doesn't know how rich she is and isn't just after her money. How long will Paul stand on priciple to defy his mother's meddling?
Here is another new Christian historical romance writer. This book is lots of fun. Walker writes some delightful scenes of awkward hilarity. Paul is a wonderfully complex character, and Louisa turns out to be deeper than she originally seems. Everything is clean and sweet. It isn't "great" literature, but I think I will give this book a star rating just so I can remember to try this author again. (2022, 240 p)
