Can Dagmar flee Denmark

Dagmar Marie Sophie is a poverty-stricken Danish princess whose annoying royal cousin is about to have her stuffed away in a convent. When she finds a wounded man unconscious in her garden, she sees a way out of her desperate situation.

By Lying to Leo?

Leopold Ernst George Mortimer, seventh earl of March, and spy in the service of the king, finds himself on the wrong end of a saber and left for dead. He wakes up not remembering what happened…in the care of a beautiful woman who says she is his wife.
Back in London, Leo-with the help of his old friends the eccentric Britton family-sets out to unravel what he’s forgotten… Is Dagmar truly the wonderful, irrepressible woman who makes his heart sing, or is she a dangerous enigma bent on his destruction?

A reader’s comment….“If you are not sure that you’d like historical romance, this series may be a good start as it combines historical romance with a great some comedy. It’s guaranteed to bring a smile to your face. As an added bonus, characters from the earlier books make a lengthy appearance in this book. It’s so nice to see Gillian and Noble, Harry and Plum and a grown up Nick with lady problems of his own…. It was amusing watching Leo and Dagmar get to know each other. I loved how their romance built slowly over the course of the book.

Each chapter begins with some sage motherly advice from Dagmar’s mother, brought about by Dagmar’s mischievous behavior. The topics are hilarious and underscore exactly what type of personality Dagmar had as a young girl. ”

Narrator Alison Larkin is clearly having fun with this witty tale of impoverished but determined Princess Dagmar, whose knight in shining armor arrives to rescue her in the form of Leopold, seventh Earl of March. She finds the wounded and unconscious spy extraordinaire in her garden. Larkin gives Dagmar an endearing childlike voice that is perfect for this smart-aleck sprite. Her portrayal of Leopold is equally clever, imbuing him, by the use of well-timed pauses and well-acted dialogue, with panache, intelligence, and humor. The progress of the romance is appealing and makes the listener laugh out loud. It’s all great fun… AudioFile 2014,
