11669652.jpgGrace Merridew believes she'll never find true love like her sisters.

After being invited to travel to Egypt with a family friend -- a dream she's had for years -- her best friend, Melly Pettifer, begs Grace to help her get out of a betrothal she knew nothing about. So Grace disguises herself and goes with Melly to the Lord D'Acre estate.

Dominic Wolfe swore he would destroy his ancestral home to avenge his mother's memory, but even from the grave his father is trying to run Dominic's life. The only way for him to inherit is to marry the girl his father had chosenfor him. Dominic wants nothing to do with marriage and informs the girl's father that if he forces the issue, it will be a white wedding only. Once they are wed he will leave Melly at the church door never to see her again.

Grace is quick-witted and sweet; Dominic is devilishly intriguing and wonderfully male. The rest of the characters are charming and entertaining. I enjoyed the way they interacted with one another and it was not forced or stilted. This story made me laugh and cry. I kept turning pages praying there was some way to outwit the dead, and hoping for a happy outcome for all. This story is packed with dry-wit and humor.

If your looking for a funny and entertaining romp this is the book for you.
