Amazon #1 Bestseller in Regency Romance!

Prolific author G.G. Vandagriff creates a world full of intrigue, suspense, and romance that fans of the Regency Period will adore. Vandagriff writes in a style reminiscent of Georgette Heyer."--Deseret News.

When Miss Caroline Braithwaite, the “Incomparable,” leaves London in the middle of the Season, she confides her reason in no one, not even her closest friend. Her sizable court of gentlemen mourn, but no one can tempt her into Society again.

Living reclusively in the country, she finally deigns to accept an invitation to her friend’s county house party. Then the Duke of Northcott arrives, fresh from a broken engagement, and none too happy to see her. Caro tries desperately to make her excuses and leave, but then her pride intervenes. Such behavior may reveal her fierce attraction toward him and the fact that it is he who has broken her heart. Deception is at hand in the form of another gentleman who is more than a little interested in her, and looks like he may not take no for an answer.

Editorial Reviews

From the Author

This is the third book in my first Regency trilogy, Three Rogues and Their Ladies. Though I write in many genres, Regencies come most naturally to me. Probably because I've been reading them since I was twelve years old. Brava Georgette Heyer!I have also written two other Regency Trilogies if you like this genre!

About the Author

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

I realize that I am one of those rare people in the world who gets to live a life full of passion, suspense, angst, fulfillment, humor, and mystery. I am a writer. Every day when I sit down at my computer, I enter into a world of my own making. I am in the head of a panoply of characters ranging from a nineteen-year-old Austrian debutante (The Last Waltz) to a raging psychopath (The Arthurian Omen). Then there are the sassy heroines of my Regency romances and, of course, my Oxford Sleuths—Catherine and Harry.

How did this come about? I think I was wired to be a writer when I was born. There were a lot of things about my surroundings that I couldn’t control during my growing-up years, so I retreated to whatever alternate existence I was creating. The habit stuck, and now my family finds themselves living in my current reality during dinnertime as I overflow with enthusiasm about Wales, Austria, Italy, Regency England, Oxford, or World War II. Then there’s always Bosnia.

Formerly a traditionally published, award-winning author, I went Indie in 2012. In that time I have become an Amazon #1 best-selling author of Regency romances and Historical Mysteries. I enjoy genre-hopping, having published a genealogical mystery series, a Golden Age mystery series, two women’s fiction novels, a Historical Epic, three romantic suspense novels, thirteen Regency romances, some novellas, and a couple of non-fiction offerings.

With a BA from Stanford and an MA from George Washington University in International Relations (emphasis: Interwar Europe), I somehow stumbled into finance. But, once my husband was through law school, I never wanted to do anything but write and raise kids. Now the kids are gone, but (even better) seven grandchildren provide my rewards for finishing a manuscript.

Aside from the grandchildren, my favorite things include Florence, Italy; snowstorms; the Chicago Cubs; Oreos; real hot chocolate; Sundance Resort; lilacs; and dachshunds.

Oh, what can I say. I love reading this author's books. This series I started with book 1-2, than skipped around, not on purpose. But I fell in love with all her characters. They are so well define they draw the reader in and allow us to experience their many emotions. The story had intrigue, suspense, danger, secrets, mayhem, and romance.

Miss Caro Braithwaite's Secret, first of all, is unrequited love for Ned Fitzhugh, the Duke of Beverley. She is the Incomparable One of this Season among the ton, but she actually finds the London scene tedious and phony, especially once the duke's engagement is announced to Lady Sarah and Caro's heart is broken. She prefers life in the country and writing plays for children's groups anyway. Caro doesn't tell anyone why she is so depressed, not even her childhood playmate, Jack, and his wife, Kate, who are usually in her confidence. But Sarah unexpectedly breaks the engagement, and Ned and Caro end up at the same house party. Her playful spirit with the children during the informal setting of a country fete inspires him to fall in love with her, so he proposes and tells her he will speak with her father in the morning. Unfortunately, he receives a letter immediately afterward with unexpected news concerning Sarah, and he feels compelled to set off early the next day without any explanation to Caro or her family.

That's just the beginning. We have Sarah's very convoluted situation that sends Ned off on several journeys to discover information that she could have told him herself directly. When he tries to reunite with Caro, she's furious with him for breaking her heart twice and refuses to see him. He goes sailing, gets caught up in a storm that sweeps him out into the ocean, goes missing, and is presumed dead. Caro has come to regret not giving him a chance to explain himself and once again is heartbroken.

This is still only about halfway through the book. The rest includes Caro's engagement under duress, as her father now has some medical issues and is concerned about her future if she isn't married when he dies. There is amnesia, there are more adorable children (this time orphans) that Caro is directing in another play she has written, there is a villain, there is a kidnapping, there is an escape. The only thing missing is the kitchen sink.

I was thoroughly entertained the whole book. It seems like at least 3 books in one, considering the series of obstacles our hero and heroine must hurdle to come to their happily-ever-after. The misunderstandings early in the story where Ned doesn't realize that Caro had favored him over her other beaux and where Caro won't listen to the full story about why Ned left her hanging are annoying, but the rest is definitely a romp if you don't mind that there isn't a single specific turning point in the entire book. Instead, there are quite a few, depending on which part of the book you're reading. There is a fair amount of romance mixed in, of course, but nothing graphic. It's a clean, light and fun read .

I really enjoyed reading Miss Braithwaite's Secret and found the book very entertaining and a joy to read. I especially enjoyed how Ms. G. G. Vandagriff developed the characters and how the dialogue between the hero and heroine had some surprises. The story line also had a little intrigue and keep the readers interest. I am looking forward to reading more from this series. I highly recommend that this book and the series be added to your historical romance collection.

Caro Braithwaite abandons the Season halfway and no one knows why she did so. The Duke of Beverly has been jilted, and has no interest in courtship. They are thrown together during a house party. Secrets are revealed, hearts broken, and love wins out in the end.

Overall, this was an ok book. Caro was an interesting character and so was Beverly.

Mainly, the problem I had in reading this was the random switches into first person to indicate a character, mainly Caro's, thoughts. Also, I found her secret rather bland.

Still, it's a clean read for anyone who is looking for that kind of book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Prepare to suspend your disbelief in order to have any hope of enjoying this book!
Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2016

I liked this book as a sort of swashbuckling, over-the-top farce of a diversion. Just when I thought we were getting to the ending of a second-chance trope, it turned into an amnesia story and again when I thought it was nearing the end, we have a kidnapping. Whew! What a roller coaster.

Readers who enjoy plot driven stories ought to be pleased. I prefer character-driven books, but I was in the mood to be entertained and just went with the story. Most of the characters are delightful, with lots of warm relationships between friends. I have the first two books in this series, but haven't read them yet, and meeting their characters in this book makes me want to read them next. If you can totally suspend your disbelief of some of the far fetched scenarios, this book is pretty good.

** Mostly clean romance with passionate kisses and lusty thoughts. The premise of the book centers around their attraction for each other so this is a major focus of their inner thoughts.

This was a fun book and I liked how it was written in the style of the old Regency writers. It is also a story that had a lot of fun characters and I fell in love with this author, so have already purchased others in this series and will read others that G G Vandagriff writes. It is good clean reading

This story has love, heart break, hate, horses, kidnapping, blackmail, wreck at sea, amnesia, orphans, wounded veterans, and other things to keep the reader occupied. There is no sex, not a problem. It is well written and kept my interest.

Loved the book; is very bollywood like in its twist and turn. The story is engaging and though part of series, you don't have that feeling of not knowing when reading just this book. The heroine is a very strong character and I am looking forward to reading the rest of the books from this series.

If you don't mind anachronisms and like a sweet regency romance and quite good writing otherwise, recommended. I was quite enjoying it, until they began to drink Pimms before playing croquet. Neither of which existed before about 1850. In the teaser chapter for Lord Grenville's Choice, a man has a short whiskey. Brandy yes. Whiskey No. Shame, because they are pretty well written and clean.
