Description

Joanna Shupe returns to New York City's Gilded Age, where fortunes and reputations are gained and lost with ease—and love can blossom from the most unlikely charade

With the fate of her disgraced family resting on her shoulders, Lady Christina Barclay has arrived in New York City from London to quickly secure a wealthy husband. But when her parents settle on an intolerable suitor, Christina turns to her reclusive neighbor, a darkly handsome and utterly compelling inventor, for help.

Oliver Hawkes reluctantly agrees to a platonic marriage . . . with his own condition: The marriage must end after one year. Not only does Oliver face challenges that are certain to make life as his wife difficult, but more importantly, he refuses to be distracted from his life's work—the development of a revolutionary device that could transform thousands of lives, including his own.

Much to his surprise, his bride is more beguiling than he imagined. When temptation burns hot between them, they realize they must overcome their own secrets and doubts, and every effort to undermine their marriage, because one year can never be enough.

      • content: When lovely Christina Barclay is accidently injured while trespassing in the gardens of reclusive, handsome, and deaf inventor Oliver Hawkes, Christina's parents make the most of the situation. Narrator Carmen Rose expertly captures the ensuing love story of two lonely people brought together by circumstances not of their making. Rose's hesitant voice is perfect for a man who lost his hearing as a young adult rather than from birth; it's just imperfect enough to be convincing. She is equally adroit in her portrayal of Christina's greedy parents, particularly her mother, whose whine and delicious hauteur are oddly captivating. A.C.P. © AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine

        September 3, 2018
        Shupe’s third Four Hundred historical (after A Scandalous Deal) craftily combines details of New York’s Gilded Age with enchanting romance. Lady Christina Barclay and her parents, the Earl and Countess of Pennington, left their home in England to visit her cousin in New York City, planning to marry Christina off to the highest bidder and restore their family fortunes. When her parents threaten to force her to marry elderly and sinister Mr. Van Peet, she flees to the home of her cousin’s neighbor, Oliver Hawkes, a reclusive, wealthy inventor who has shunned the snobs of high society because of their cruelty about his deafness. Christina and Oliver have become friends; he is enchanted by her beauty, and she is attracted to his kindness and intelligence. Oliver offers to marry Christina to save her from marriage to Van Peet, provide the funds her family needs, and give her an annulment in a year, but as their friendship develops into mutual desire, their arrangement is impeded, leaving them wondering whether to keep their agreement or dare to explore a genuine marriage. Scintillating romance is at the heart of this tale of affable protagonists overcoming the wounds of their pasts. Agent: Laura Bradford, Bradford Literary.
