Clever, popular, and deliciously shocking, the ladiesâ periodical Mrs. Goodeâs Magazine for Misses only employs women who are equal to the challengeâand sometimes the challenge includes romance ...
As the daughter of a clergyman, Julia Addison knows sheâll never be able to fulfill her lifelong dream of acting on the stage. But writing forthright reviews of the Seasonâs most popular plays for Mrs. Goodeâs Magazine for Misses, popularly known as Goodeâs Guide to Misconduct, is surely the next best thing. Even better, sheâs got a ticket to Ransom Blackadderâs latest irritating satire about English society. Best of all, sheâs sharing a theater box with the gruff but handsome Lord Dunstane, which is enough to make Julia call for an encore ...
Graham McKay, the Earl of Dunstane, rarely leaves his home in the Scottish Highlands. Why would he? Nothing about London has ever held his interestâuntil he meets Julia. But when Graham realizes she is the critic who panned his last playâand she discovers he is, in fact, the man behind Blackadderâs wicked pen will it bring down the curtain on their romance, not to mention the magazine that published the humiliating review? Or can an unexpected collaboration set the stage for a scandalous love affair?
