Lady Rose Dunford lives in New York City, and is recently widowed by her sweet husband. But her new neighbour seems to be causing quite a stir in the area, with females flocking to visit him at home. Since her husband was kind and gentle, but not exactly exciting, Rose cannot understand what the attraction could possibly be. That is until she meets the man himself, the man who saved her from a cruel suitor in London, and made her life here possible...

Charlie Avery has worked hard to get where he his today, a successful businessman in New York. He is no longer a servant from England. But as he spends more time with Rose, it cannot help but stir up feelings from the past. Is it possible for two very different people, to overcome their baggage, and grasp a chance for a passionate love together?

HOW TO PLEASE A LADY by Jane Goodger is the second book in The Lost Heiresses series and is thoroughly enjoyable. Full of emotion and depth, Rose and Charlie are real characters with real flaws, that come alive with compassion and feeling. We learn all about their lives in London and how they both ended up in New York, which is great for historical readers, as we get to see the differences between the two societies at that time. With plenty of laughter, tears, and romance, HOW TO PLEASE A LADY by Jane Goodger is a wonderful story that will completely enchant readers.
