The Bride Takes a Groom: The Penhallow Dynasty
(OverDrive MP3 Audiobook, OverDrive Listen)
Lisa Berne's Penhallow Dynasty continues with a pair of star-crossed childhood friends who meet again years later—and find love where they least expect it . . .
Katherine Brooke may be a fabulously wealthy heiress, but she's trapped, a pawn in her parents' ruthless game to marry her into the nobility. Then Captain Hugo Penhallow—so charming, as handsome as a Greek god—comes into her life once more, and suddenly she sees a chance to be free.
As a Penhallow, his is one of the highest names in the land, but still his family is facing ruin. So Katherine boldly proposes an exchange: his name for her money. But only if Hugo understands it's merely a practical arrangement, and that she's not surrendering herself entirely.
Back from eight years in America and determined to give his younger siblings a better life, Hugo agrees. He's never fallen in love, so why not? Yet neither of them guesses that this marriage will become far, far more than they ever dreamed of . . .

Starred review from March 5, 2018
In Berne’s marvelous third Penhallow Dynasty Regency (after The Laird Takes a Bride), reunited friends find that a hasty marriage leads to significant challenges. Capt. Hugo Penhallow hopes to marry well to restore his family’s fortunes. He sets his sights on Katherine Brooke, a childhood friend. Katherine is not the amiable girl he remembers; she has succumbed to her parents’ pressure to display the trappings of their wealth with her ostentatious dress, and is so eager to get out from under their stifling control that she breaks convention and proposes to Hugo. As Hugo and Katherine adjust to married life, she surprises him with glimpses into her caring nature and confuses him by first displaying a sudden eagerness for intimacy and then stifling it because she thinks he regrets their marriage. But Hugo discovers that she desires him and Katherine learns that she is worthy of his affection in a slow development that’s beautifully written. Regency fans will love this forthright, intellectual heroine and affable, resourceful hero. Agent: Cheryl Pientka, Jill Grinberg Literary.

Starred review from March 1, 2018
When childhood friends--fortune hunter Hugo Penhallow and wealthy but oppressed heiress Katherine Brooke--decide to wed, neither can imagine what the future has in store for them or how marriage can save them.After having been wounded in Canada, Capt. Hugo Penhallow comes home to straitened circumstances and calls on his former playmate Katherine, who jumps on his arrival as salvation and asks him to marry her. Her rich parents are looking for an advantageous match, and while Hugo doesn't have a title, Penhallow is "an old and illustrious name that loomed large, extremely large, among the haut ton." Unfortunately, in the years since they last met, Katherine's parents have taken draconian measures to keep their lively daughter in check, and she's become an angry, suspicious young woman. Once married, Katherine retreats behind a protective screen of brittle hauteur, and the ever genial Hugo realizes he might regret his impulsive decision to marry her. A honeymoon visit to Hugo's cousin Gabriel, his lively wife, Livia (the couple from Berne's debut, You May Kiss the Bride), and Gabriel's formidable grandmother Henrietta, who takes Katherine under her wing, chips away at her insecurity, and once the couple heads to London for the season, the bride begins to wonder if there's hope for them after all. Startling news sends them back to Hugo's childhood home, where, surrounded by his large family, Katherine continues her journey of rediscovering her true self. Berne's third Penhallow title maintains the exquisite writing, lush emotion, and complex characters we've come to expect, this time with a heroine who is knocked back time and again but finds herself strengthened by the choices she makes, the people she helps along the way, and, to her pleasant surprise, the remarkable man beside her.An elegant, poignant, and joyful romance and a must-read for Regency fans.COPYRIGHT(2018) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
