Dear Lady Truelove,

My ward is driving me crazy. I have to marry her off and get her out of my life. There’s just one problem…

When Jonathan Deverill promised a dying friend he’d be guardian to the man’s daughter, he envisioned a girl in pigtails and pinafores, a child he could leave behind in some finishing school. Problem is, his ward is actually a fully-grown, defiant beauty whose longing for romance threatens to make his guardianship a living hell.

New York heiress Marjorie McGann wants a London season and a titled husband who can help her spend the Yankee millions she’s inherited, and she thinks her new British guardian is the perfect person to help her find him. But Jonathan has no intention of letting his friend’s fortune be squandered. Under his watchful, protective eye, Marjorie finds romance hard to come by . . . until one fateful night when her own guardian’s devastating kisses makes her wonder if the greatest romance of all might be right in front of her.

VERDICT The latest in Guhrke’s “Dear Lady Truelove” series has heat but struggles to show the depth of Jonathan and Marjorie’s connection. Still, series fans will tune in, thanks to the endearing characters whose stories continue here….Library Journal

Englishman Jonathan Deverill was expecting a girl when he arrived at a finishing school in America to claim guardianship of his late friend’s daughter. Narrator Justine Eyre has the listener feeling his shock when he finds a headstrong, beautiful young woman instead. Jonathan plans to leave Marjorie behind when he travels back to England, but she will have none of that and sneaks aboard ship. Eyre deftly switches from Marjorie’s American accent to Jonathan’s British one. Both Jonathan and Marjorie go through a series of emotions as he struggles to make plans for his future and Marjorie fears being abandoned, as she was by her father. Eyre has listeners experiencing their ups and downs as they struggle to find their happily ever after. S.B. � AudioFile 2019,
