3rd and final book in the Merriwell Sisters series. Historical romance, romantic comedy. Can be read as a stand-alone but couples from the prior books do appear in this book.
Venus Merriwell has been writing in her diary about her future prince since she was fourteen. By the age of 23 and after several disappointing potential suitors, she focuses her time and energy on an orphanage in Covent Garden. It’s overcrowded, the roof is leaking and badly in need of repairs and funding. She has her eye on the building next door.
Galahad Sinclair has been scrimping and saving for the perfect building where he can build the ultimate gambling hall. He’s found the perfect block with only one major downfall. The orphanage next door is run by his cousin’s wife’s younger sister and he’s been avoiding her since she flattened him five years ago. Maybe he should rethink his approach to her and see if he can buy her out of that building.
A handsome foreigner (from New York!) who is sympathetic to the rambunctious orphans? Venus doesn’t recognize this man though they’ve been forced to eat around the same table for years! Has she misjudged him or is he simply playing her for some unscrupulous purpose?
A joy to read as these two deal with their lives, dreams and learn more about each other, being secretly attracted. The dialog is fun and the addition of the rest of her family and the orphan boys and their antics ramp up the delightful storyline.
I will go back and read the prior two books in this series. They feel like I’d enjoy them as much as this.
