    About this ebook

    A brand new series from the author of The Gentlemen Next Door, praised for being a "delightful Regency romp… in the spirit of Georgette Heyer."

    Meet Dinah Belle—the Blasé Belle—who never gets emotional because there is no problem—including love—that she cannot solve with her superior intellect. The irrational emotion of love has destroyed her family, but it must have a cure, and she has the perfect test case by which to discover it.

    Meet Graham Abernathy—the popular duke's son—a gentleman who goes out of his way to please others and be well liked. Not that it's done him any good, since the woman he loves has thrown him over for someone else. Heartbroken, he attracts the interest of one Dinah Belle, who has her sights set on him—for research, of all things.

    Dinah has no intention of failing. He has no intention of being cured.

      Very short, the 3rd in a series of 4.

      Very cute, but because it's so short everything moves too fast and I would have loved if the story went a little deeper.
    • 5/5
      This b00k is a continuation of the Drummond sisters. The baby sister, Cassandra has decided to leave London for the quiet of the country. She has become very popular with the gentlemen since her sister got engaged. The suitor are lining up at the door to pay call to her so they could be the next person to share's in their company. But Cassandra escapes or so she thinks.Lord Gary Abernathy was disowned by his family when he refused to do as his father wished him to do. So he has been living with friends and so forth. One night changes everything for him for the better or will his father ruin it..I am loving this series. This series is becoming one of my favorites. I can't wait to read the final book in this series and other books by Cecilia. I highly recommend this book to others to read.
