Book Review of The Wedding Wager (Harlequin Historical, No 563)

The Wedding Wager (Harlequin Historical, No 563)
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 3


When bluestocking Leonora Freemantle's uncle wagers her enough money for her girls' school and her independence against marriage to a man of his choice that she can't take a common soldier and after three months' education pass him off as a gentleman for a whole season in Bath, she boldly accepts and then falls in love with her creation. This charming twist on the traditional Pygmalion story takes a pair of wary protagonists with serious past issues to resolve, forces them to work together, and lets nature take its course.
