Lady Amelia Caversham is determined to marry a duke. But catching the eye of a duke has not been easy, so Amelia enlists the aid of Lady Sophia Dalby, rumored to have once been a courtesan.
As Lady Dalby and Amelia start conducting interviews of those men who have made Amelia's list, the Earl of Cranleigh is determined that Amelia not marry his brother, who is on that list.
Sparks fly between Cranleigh and Amelia as the dukes eagerly line up to be interviewed, and the wagers around town escalate as to whom will eventually marry the lovely Amelia. But will Amelia be able to make the right choice in the end?
THE COURTESAN'S WAGER, the third book in the Courtesan's Chronicles series, is a clever story and highly entertaining. Claudia Dain
Award-winning author Claudia Dain brings back her
deliciously improper ex-courtesan for another delightful
matchmaking scheme. If Lady Amelia is to marry
before another Season passes, sheβll need help from
infamous courtesan-turned- matchmaker Sophia Dalby. But
Amelia is shocked when Lady Dalby informs her that theyβll
hold interviews for the post of husbandβand only dukes
need apply. The plan may ruffle some feathers, but
that doesnβt keep the men from lining up, especially once
the hopeful bride-to-be rejects one eligible duke after
another. Only Lord Cranleigh shuns the proceedings,
setting his own course of action. But convincing the lady
to pursue different interests leads to even more
outrageous behavior. Lady Dalby is delightedβand the ton
is abuzz: Will Amelia become a duchess, or will other
desires consume her?
