Book Synopsis
By popular demand, USA Today bestselling author Ella Quinn returns Regency England's beloved extended family, The Worthingtons, for the second in a sparnking spin-off series! Determined to tame the marriage market on their own terms and make advantageous love matches, three confident sisters draw up a list of qualities they expect their new beaus to meet. But as they are about to discover, people are hardly ever perfect - including one handsome politician whose ambition and glib smile masks a tender heart and the sincere desire to help improve the everyday lives of the average English citizen... While her older sisters have sought out adventure, Lady Madeline Vivers is content to be the conventional one in the family. A respectable husband, spring and autumn in Town, a place in the country--these are Madeline's very reasonable goals. And Mr. Harry Stern is not the man to help her reach them--no matter how much he causes her pulse to race. He is far too ambitious and determined to make his mark in Parliament. Yet, somehow he's convinced that Madeline is just the helpmate he needs . . . The moment Harry witnesses Madeline gently convincing a shopkeeper to hire the child who is stealing from him, he's intrigued. If only she realized how much good they could do together, aiding their fellow countrymen and women. And the way her color deepens at his touch tells him she too feels their intense attraction. In fact, Harry has never felt so powerful an attraction either. What better reasons to use all his gifts of persuasion to convince her she belongs by his side--and in his arms . . .Review Quotes

2 Stars! This is the second book in ‘The Worthington Brides’ series and can be read as a standalone. I did find this book confusing since I never read the previous book and haven’t read any books from ‘The Worthington’s’ series. So many secondary characters that just confused me while trying to read Madeline and Harry’s story. If you’ve read ‘The Worthington’s’ series, you’ll love this ‘Worthington Brides’ series as it continues with the same characters. I never read either series and couldn’t really get into this book. Some things are mentioned in this book that happened in the first book of this series and I was lost as to why it was happening since I never read that book. Basically, if you haven’t gotten invested in either of these series, you’ll be lost like I was. If you’ve read most or all of these series’, you’ll know who the people are, what is going on, and why it is all happening. *I received this at no charge & I voluntarily left this review.*
