This is a great way to catch up on the series, and this set of books, The Tempestuous Debutante, Blinded By Grace and The Duplicitous Debutante, are among my favorites. Each book involves a deb ball, of all things. Here's a little bit about each:
The Tempestuous Debutante–It’s Jasmine Fitzpatrick’s year to shine at this season’s Cotillion and men will be throwing themselves at her. But she sets her sights on a man she’s never met, the Viscount of Foxborough. He’s wealthy and has an English title. Only a few things stand in her way: a wealthy, young, beautiful widow who captures the viscount’s attention immediately, her fear of riding horses when he owns a breeding stable and racetrack, and the viscount’s stableboy, Parr.
Blinded By Grace–In 1858 New York City, Halwyn Fitzpatrick thinks he's off the hook for attendance at the annual Cotillion Ball. He has no sister to shepherd down the grand staircase this year and no real desire to go through the rituals of courtship and betrothal himself. Besides, he’ll know the right girl when he sees her, especially now that he has new spectacles. But his mother has other plans for him. At twenty-seven years of age, her son is in dire need of a wife.
The Duplicitous Debutante–In 1859, ladies of New York society are expected to do three things well: find a husband, organize a household, and have children. But despite her mother’s best intentions, making her debut is the last thing on Rosemary Fitzpatrick’s mind. Writing the popular Harry Hawk dime novels as F.P. Elliott, she’s too busy hiding her female identity from her new publisher, Henry Cooper. To protect her clandestine career, she ends up posing as the enigmatic author’s secretary.

Hi, Becky, glad to see you're on the mend. I especially like The Tempestuous Debutante. The twist with Parr is wonderful, how they build their relationship as friends before the reveal. Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteI love the Parr character, too. And, yes, I'm feeling better. last week was a bit sketchy, but I think this week will be better. Thanks, as always, Barb, for your devoted support.
DeleteWelcome back.... I hope you take care of yourself these next weeks. Third times a charm. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm feeling the same way, Lynn. Fingers crossed, though. I won't breathe easy until I get to the six-month mark, but this one feels better. I'm so ready to be done with it. Good luck on your upcoming surgery.
