About the book
It takes more than Cupid to arrange a marriage in this sparkling Regency romcom from New York Times best-selling author Suzanne Enoch, where The Parent Trap crashes into Bridgerton as two precocious children decide to play matchmaker for their unsuspecting single parents.
Beckett Raines, known as the Marquis of Hentrose, is in need of a wife for the sake of his young daughter Rebecca. He is prepared to join the Season in search of a suitable mother for his child. Beckett is set on marrying for practicality rather than love, and he believes he has found the ideal candidate for the role.
However, he is taken aback when his new neighbor Iris Silbern storms into his home in pursuit of her mischievous son, Edmund. Despite her lack of propriety, Beckett is captivated by her fierceness, sharp wit, and humor. Meanwhile, Iris' family is pushing for a match with an elderly duke to solve her financial woes, despite her reservations.
Rebecca and Edmund, on the other hand, see no need for such practical arrangements when they see the perfect pair of parents in front of them. Determined to unite their families, they plot to bring Beckett and Iris together. Will Beckett realize that a chaotic life may be just what he needs? And will Iris open her heart to a man who may not be a duke, but something even better?
