The Lady Most Likely...
Ratings7
Average rating3.7
Three of the brightest stars of historical romance invite you to a party at the country home of the Honorable Marquess of Finchley Hugh Dunne, the Earl of Briarly, needs a wife, so his sister hands him a list of delectable damsels and promises to invite them— and a few other gentlemen—to her country house for what is sure to be the event of the season. Hugh will have time to woo whichever lady he most desires . . . Unless someone else snatches her first. The invitation list includes: The horse-mad but irresistibly handsome Earl of Briarly The always outspoken Miss Katherine Peyton The dashing war hero Captain Neill Oakes The impossibly beautiful (and painfully shy) Miss Gwendolyn Passmore The terribly eligible new Earl of Charters The widowed Lady Georgina Sorrell (who has no plans to marry, ever) And your hostess, Lady Carolyn Finchley, an irrepressible matchmaker who plans to find the lady most likely . . . to capture her brother’s untamed heart.

I'm deciding to dive into Julia Quinn on recommendation of one of my co-workers. I did not realize this book had 3 stories written by 3 different authors until I had already started it. Oh, well.
I really like Gwendlyn and Alec! I really appreciate Alec calling out his sister for being so rude, instead of just defending her just because she is his sister and he is now responsible for her. I also appreciate the pretty woman who was the girl of the Season NOT being a mean-girl but instead having her own personality. I'm very glad Julia Quinn did not use that trope.
I was less impressed by the other two love stories, for reasons I will just not go into just because this book was mostly about me getting to know Julia Quinn.
Really enjoyed this book. I needed something ‘easy breezy' as a break between the series I'm reading. It was everything I was expecting; completely predictable, whirlwind romances, with a sprinkle of smut.
The first story was a little lack lustre but still enjoyable. The second was extremely predictable, which I did not mind. The third story... wow! The writing and the chemistry between Georgina and Hugh was awesome!
I just love Julia Quinn writing... always fun with action, love and a good dose of mischievous...
