About this ebook

Can the Ladies’ Wagering Whist Society help an extroverted sportswoman and a dedicated scientist solve matters of the heart?

Diana Hemshawe is enjoying the perfect life—her first season in Regency society, racing her beloved horse, and the companionship of the ladies of the Wagering Whist Society. When her father has a heart attack, she has to refocus her energies on nursing him back to health. Balancing responsibilities shouldn’t be too difficult for someone as resourceful as Diana … except for the charming and thoughtful doctor who is so very distracting.

Andrew, Lord Colburn, used to be passionate about just one thing—pursuing the cutting edge of medical research. Now his excitement in discovering a new cure for his patient’s heart disease is warring with his growing fascination with the man’s clever and spirited daughter. But can he learn to balance his loyalty to patients with his desire for her?

It will take all the guile of the Ladies’ Wagering Whist Society to ensure that Andrew and Diana have a sporting chance at love.

The story is a wonderful way to relax and take a journey to another time. To follow along and see how a couple come to terms with their situation and find a solution that suits everyone. It has some twists and turns along the way, that only add to keep you turning pages I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

A Sportswoman and a Scientist. The cover has such a wonderful antique look to it so often a cover does not fit the time setting but this one did an excellent job. This book was so interesting the medical research that Andrew was doing was such a different idea for a plotline. Diana needs to learn to trust her heart in the same way she is able to trust Andrew to care for her father. Diana also has to figure a way out of the gambling debt of her father’s. I loved all the ups and downs in this one there was a great villain a flawed hero and a headstrong heroine what more could you ask for. I found the author’s notes fascinating and I really enjoyed her writing. This is a book I gladly recommend. I did receive a free copy of this book and voluntarily chose to review it.
