When Lydia Hope-Wallace decides to offer her hand in marriage to the Earl of Strathrannoch, it's with the understanding that the stranger is actually a long-standing pen pal and trusted friend. One she's bantered and argued with, as well as slowly fallen in love with over the course of three years. However, the disgruntled man that holds the title (and owns the decrepit family home Lydia had in mind she was saving), is decidedly not the man Lydia has been conversing with.

And, while Arthur Baird is a man used to solving his own problems, he has to admit he may need the unexpectedly fiery woman to help solve a problem concerning his brother (and the man Lydia has actually been talking to). What follows is a misadventure including sixteen zebras, a chase around the British countryside, mistaken identities, and only one bed in the inn.

An utterly fun, hilarious, and sexy misadventure between a penniless but dedicated Scottish Earl and an introverted, opinionated heiress. I loved every second of reading this ridiculous book, and can only imagine how wonderful it would be to enjoy as an audiobook. If you're looking for a funny, character driven, Regency romance that's just a little unrealistic (but makes up for it with laughs and heartwarming moments)-- then don't look any further!
