Lady Emily’s Matchmaking Mishap (Merry Spinsters, Charming Rogues)
Two sisters of humble origins infiltrate a duke’s country house party—one as a maid, one as a wealthy heiress—with the goal of securing a fortune and reclaiming a life they lost. What could possibly go wrong? 🎭
Sofi Laporte’s Lady Emily’s Matchmaking Mishap is a fizzy, fast-paced Regency romp with layers: the “Devil Duke” is onto the scheme and counters with a shocking proposal of his own, tangling Emily in a web of deception that goes deeper than she planned. 🃏
The double-impostor dynamic gives this one real comic energy, but it’s the echoes of Emily’s past—letters from a childhood confidant who once stole her heart—that lift it above a simple caper and into genuinely romantic territory. 💌
Second in the Merry Spinsters, Charming Rogues series and every bit as delightful as the first—perfectly readable as a standalone for new readers. 📚
What makes this essential: A witty Regency impostor romance where the con gets complicated, the duke fights back, and the past refuses to stay buried. 🌹
In 1640, Alys Bailey was hanged for witchcraft. Nearly four centuries later, her ghost reportedly haunts the Tudor manor where she died—and writer Nicole Rayburn has arrived to find out what really happened. 🌳
Irina Shapiro’s The Hanging Tree launches the Nicole Rayburn Historical Mysteries with a tightly plotted cold case that grows stranger the deeper Nicole digs. The irregularities in Alys’s trial, the son who vanished the day she was executed, the sense that someone very much alive doesn’t want the truth uncovered. 🕯️
Shapiro excels at weaving past and present together—the 17th-century conspiracy and the modern-day sabotage mirror each other in ways that keep the pages turning. The Tudor setting is vivid and the mystery genuinely surprising. 🏰
A strong series opener with a charming cast of supporting characters—a crime writer, a history-obsessed vicar—and just enough atmosphere to make Lockwood Hall feel genuinely haunted. 👻
