Sir Colin Tate must marry for money, to pay off his late
father's debts. Lady Beatrice Moore has a good-sized dowry,
but the daughter of a marquis is far above his station.
Beatrice doesn't care about his title; she only sees the son
of her idol, the great painter Sir Frederick Tate.
FLIRTING WITH FORTUNE is the third book in Erin Knightley's
Sealed with a Kiss series, and I have enjoyed both the ones
I've read. Knightley has a knack for creating believable
characters and situations. For example, the biggest hurdle
Colin and Beatrice have to overcome is at its heart a simple
misunderstanding, but the reasons they never talk about it
are very realistic. The plot goes beyond the love story,
adding depth to the characters and their lives.
Colin and Beatrice never do more than kiss, but each touch
sends sparks flying, leaving the reader with no doubt that
they are meant for each other. Both of them have strong
personalities and avocations, so their encounters are always
compelling. Knightley also peoples her books with sparkling
minor characters, creating a world that's a pleasure to
visit.
I recommend FLIRTING WITH FORTUNE for fans of Regency and
historical
romances who enjoy strong characters and intricate plotting.
Sir Colin Tate has never imagined marrying for money.
But debts left by his artist father have put his
siblings’
futures in danger. To wed an eligible heiress, this
