"An Improper Suitor is the spectacular debut novel by a talented new writer with a wonderful career ahead of her!"
Single Titles
A lady in possession of an independent fortune has no need for a husband. Miss Julia Swifton, secure in that belief, has made no attempt to search for one, even after three seasons in London. That is until her grandmother, an advocate of women's rights, rises from her deathbed and threatens, of all things, to marry her to a notorious rake, Lord Thorwynn. Shocked into action, Julia launches into a search for an intelligent, scholarly husband who will suit her. On her way she has to rescue a fallen 'angel,' save a rake from being forced into marriage, defeat an unscrupulous gamester, and avert a friend's disastrous runaway marriage. Fortunately, she does not have to do it alone. Even if her companion, Lord Thorwynn, is the last person she would ever want to marry...
"Regency romances do not get any better than this! Monica Fairview is sure to be a favourite with readers of Jane Austen and Georgette Heyer for her writing is crisp and eloquent, her descriptions of Regency society superb and evocative and her ability to tell a powerful romantic story rich in intrigue and emotion absolutely brilliant!" Julie Bonello, SingleTitles.com
