Can Regency romance author, Luella Linley (AKA Louise Brooker) hit the target twice in a row?
The temptation to match-make is too much to resist. Louise has one success already under her belt. Now this handsome, successful lawyer has just admitted he isn’t married. Single and in possession of a large fortune, Michael Sullivan must be in want of a wife. Louise’s second daughter, Chloe, would be just right for him.
There is no way Chloe will let her mother organize a blind date for her as she did for her sister. Chloe has her principles—and she has a ridiculous, unjust speeding ticket. The person she needs is a lawyer to help argue her case in court. Is it dishonest, when her mother’s lawyer calls and asks her on a date, to agree with ulterior motives?
Michael Sullivan has ulterior motives of his own. This all expenses paid trip to the sunny Gold Coast is merely a case of one person helping the other out—isn’t it? Everyone else might think they’re a couple, but it’s just about winning a court case—isn’t it?
Can Regency romance author, Luella Linley (AKA Louise Brooker) hit the target twice in a row? Meddling in her adult children’s lives is almost as much fun as creating fiction characters, except her children have minds of their own and don’t always cooperate.
This mom matchmaker meets fake fiancé mash up is hilarious in parts as the regency romance author mom sometimes mixes her real life with her writing. I had many laugh out loud moments reading through some of her antics. I am not Australian and really do not know what a chook is, but I know a good story when I read one and this one is really exceptional.

Meredith has done it again! I loved the integration of a book within a book. It lead to some laugh out loud moments! The characters were well developed. The main female character was for equality for women but it’s no too pushy or political. Hard subjects are mentioned as well. However, my jaw hit the floor at one point in the book! This is a must read!
