Ace Endicott, the Earl of Carde, needs a woman who will give him an heir, but he never expects to be engaged to three different women or to become the laughingstock of the gossip columnists. Escaping this London nightmare, he takes a chance and comes up with a winning hand in the game of love.

"So this is book 1 in a trilogy that I read 2nd! It was enjoyable and rather clean. Now I just have t find book 3 to finish the series. It would be better to read these in order as the characters do continue on in the story of 3 siblings. "

“A doyen of humorous Regency-era romance writing.”
— Publishers Weekly“With her trademark sense of humor at an all-time high, Metzger takes readers on a delightful jaunt in the English countryside…Readers are in for a laugh-out-loud, heart-tugging lineup of stories. Metzger has the unique ability to set just the right Regency tone and still make us laugh loud and long.”
— RT Book Reviews (4 stars)" Amusing regency romance. I'm not convinced that I'll read the other 2 books, but I might. Her style is a lot like Mary Balogh, which I like. This story was really great (love the goose)but drawn out more than the plot would support. "
