Description
In the second Lady Travelers Society romantic misadventure, “Victoria Alexander delivers on all counts . . . Inventive, imaginative, and intriguing” (Stephanie Laurens, #1 New York Times–bestselling author).
She must secure her future
A lady should never be obliged to think of matters financial! But when Lady Wilhelmina Bascombe’s carefree, extravagant lifestyle vanishes with the demise of her husband, her only hope lies in retrieving a family treasure—a Renaissance masterpiece currently in the hands of a cunning art collector in Venice. Thankfully, the Lady Travelers Society has orchestrated a clever plan to get Willie to Europe, leading a tour of mothers and daughters . . . and one curiously attentive man.
He must reclaim his heritage
Dante Augustus Montague’s one passion has long been his family’s art collection. He’s finally tracked a long-lost painting to the enchanting Lady Bascombe. Convinced that the canvas had been stolen, he will use any means to reclaim his birthright—including deception. But how long before pretend infatuation gives way to genuine desire?
Now they’re rivals for a prize that will change everything
Willie and Dante know they’re playing with fire in the magical moonlit city. Their common quest could compromise them both . . . or lead them to happily-ever-after.
“Alexander’s adventurous, sensible, and self-assured older women, her energetic exploration of the turn-of-the-19th-century European setting, and her madcap social plotting continue to delight in the second installment of the Lady Travelers series.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“Smart, witty, and sensual, the second in Alexander’s lively Lady Travelers Society series is delightful.” —RT Book Reviews (4 1/2 stars, Top Pick!)

Starred review from November 6, 2017
Alexander’s adventurous, sensible, and self-assured older women, her energetic exploration of the turn-of-the-19th-century European setting, and her madcap social plotting continue to delight in the second installment of the Lady Travelers series (after The Lady Travelers Guide to Scoundrels and Other Gentlemen). After the absurd accidental death of Lord Bascombe, his wife, Lady Wilhelmina, is left with a legendary reputation, few friends, and a distinct lack of money. She is convinced by her godmother, Poppy, to host a tour of American mothers and daughters in her Paris home for the Lady Travelers Society, with the secret goal of recovering a valuable painting her husband used to secure a loan in Venice. Dante Montague, accompanying his sister and niece, mercenarily directs his substantial charm at Wilhelmina in the hope of completing a triptych in his family museum with the same painting. Soon he must decide whether he cares more about the art or the lady. A secondary plot concerning the machinations of the young women to escape their mothers and explore the wilder side of Paris is sparklingly fun and makes it clear that the story is centered on women. This is a wonderful continuation of a highly enjoyable series.
