Summary

From the publisher of the #1 Amazon bestselling A Timeless Romance Anthology series in Clean Romance. 

Join three bestselling Regency Romance authors, Regina Scott, Donna Hatch, and Sarah M. Eden, for three new novellas in SUMMER HOUSE PARTY.

A ENGAGEMENT OF CONVENIENCE by Regina Scott: Kitty Chapworth is nearly a spinster, and an orphan living on the charity of her uncle, with nothing to recommend her for the marriage mart. Her primary purpose is relegated to acting chaperone for her cousins until she can see them successfully married. Kitty remains focused on her duty even though she knows her future is bleak. When Quentin Adair returns from a long ten years working in Jamaica and proposes a wild charade to Kitty, she agrees, although the plan might reawaken her old feelings for Quentin. Can a reformed rake convince the perfect chaperone to overlook propriety for love?

A PERFECT MATCH by Donna Hatch: Genevieve attends a summer house party hosted by her best friend who can't wait to introduce her to a gentleman she wants to marry, Christian Amesbury. After meeting him, Genevieve determines Christian is perfect . . . for her. Torn between loyalty to her best friend and the yearnings of her heart, Genevieve must first escape the attention of a powerful lord who's obsessed with her and who tries to rob her of any hope for a happily ever after.

THE PAUPERS’ HOUSE PARTY by Sarah M. Eden: It’s a rare event that Edward Downy and his brother are invited to a house party by a member of the ton. But when they arrive, Edward quickly realizes this house party is different than any other. All invited guests are quite destitute, fallen members of Society barely hanging onto their homes. The hosts of the house party, the Warricks, then make a stunning announcement—they intend to gift all their properties to one fortunate guest. As the guests race to impress the Warricks, Edward finds a fast friend in Agatha Holmwood, who shares his same aversion to the horrible expectations. But their growing fondness for each other only makes the game more painful.

My Review

SUMMER HOUSE PARTY was an enjoyable novella collection with three unique stories sure to entertain! Would definitely recommend to those who enjoy sweet historical romance.

A ENGAGEMENT OF CONVENIENCE by Regina Scott: I loved this story! It had great moments and banter as well as some dashing heroism. I'm definitely planning on reading more from this author!

A PERFECT MATCH by Donna Hatch: I've read the story that this prequel novella leads into so I liked being able to read about the first time these two had met. It felt slightly bittersweet though, since I know what happens. Overall, an enjoyable story.

THE PAUPERS’ HOUSE PARTY by Sarah M. Eden: This story was eccentric and hilarious while also being utterly sweet. I especially loved the characters, particularly Edward and Agatha. I liked too that nothing came easy here and there were some nice twists. Another fabulous story from this author!

In the end, was it what I wished for? Yes. I definitely loved some of the stories more than others, but they were all enjoyable and sweet with a nice touch of humor.
