A Lady’s Escape by A.S. Fenichel

Millicent Edgebrook has resigned herself to being a spinster.  She had a disastrous first season and has discovered an ability for matchmaking - by matching would-be suitors with her friends.  All she wants is her independence from her kind but eccentric uncle.  Millie seeks employment with the Everton Domestic Society.  Her first assignment is to find a bride for Preston Knowles, Duke of Middleton.

Preston was rebuffed by two perfectly respectable ladies.  He has decided that he would prefer to remain single except his mother insists that he gets married and provide an heir.  Preston finds he is fantasizing over the Everton Lady.  Millie has a scandal in her past and the Everton Society forbids relationships between clients and employees.  Will love be able to trump the rules?

What a wonderful book!  I loved the characters.  Millie was a perfect heroine and Preston was a great hero.  I enjoyed Millie getting the HEA she deserved with Preston.

I voluntarily reviewed an ARC provided by NetGalley and the publisher.  Thank you!
