Summary

'A refreshing array of dazzling wit, hidden depths, lip curling humour and heartmelting fun, in all its entangling intimacy!!'⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ reader praise for the Merriwell Sisters series!'Virginia Heath's fun characters and situations will have you laughing out… loud!' SABRINA JEFFRIES'Filled with fabulously British banter, wit, and heart' EVIE DUNMORE'Heath is carving a name for herself in historical rom-coms' BOOKLIST starred reviewLOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP is the second in a new Regency romp of a series from the author of the Merriwell Sisters series! In this hilarious historical rom-com, a single lord is forced to settle down...and when a houseparty brings a happy-go-lucky lady's companion his way, his grumpy heart is unexpectedly warmed.________________________Nine years ago, Lord Guy Harrowby was publicly humiliated by a failed romantic gesture. Now, with the clock ticking on a promise he made to his mother to make her a grandmother by his thirtieth birthday, Guy is horrified to see his incorrigible mother taking matters into her own hands: she's organised a week-long house party at his estate . . . with every debutante she can think of. Lottie Travers is not a very good lady's companion. Despite years of trying, she still climbs trees better than she embroiders, and would always rather be riding horses. But now, with her family's finances relying on her wages, she's determined to conquer her wildness once and for all. Overwhelmed with eligible women, there is only one who catches Guy's eye, no matter how hard he tries to deny it. For Lottie, succeeding in her job proves difficult when the Wennington estate is filled with horses and there is a definite spark between her and the grumpy lord. Neither of them is quite what the other expected, but could they in fact be the perfect match?________________________Readers LOVED the Merriwell Sisters!!'An utterly heartwarming and hilarious romp through regency England . . .
