Athena Lancaster, younger sister of Persephone, has recently become the Duke of Kielder's ward and inherited 20,000 pounds. She is excited to have her first London season and anticipates finding the man of her dreams. The Duke of Kielder hates the London season, so he enlists his best friend, Harry, to help Athena meet appropriate gentlemen among the ton. The only problem is that Harry has long been in love with Athena. He knows, because of his finacial situation, that he is not an appropriate suitor, but he can't bring himself to find her anyone else that she might like. Instead, he introduces her to men that are examples of what she should not look for in a suitor, with nearly diasterous results.
This is the second in the series I started just a couple of weeks ago. Although it wasn't quite as impactful to me as the first one, it was still just the right kind of book for me to read during a very stressful week. The relationship between the Duke and Dutchess of Kielder continues to be charming, and Harry and Athena have very good chemistry. Ms Eden is a Christian writer, but her religious views are implied in the story instead of overtly stated. She has the lightest touch of any Christian Romance writer that I have read. Ms Eden comes up with a heart-warming ending that makes me eager to read the next in the series.
