Reviews
*Starred Review* Daniel Stamfield is a human lie detector—he breaks out in a rash whenever someone lies. Once the British Army discovers Daniel’s gift, they use it on captured officers from Napoleon’s army. After years of sorting out fact from fiction for the military, Daniel is now in dire need of a vacation, one where he can gamble, drink, wench, and stay in bed as long as he wants. However, his mother has other plans: she wants him to accompany his sister Susanna through her first season. Daniel’s not sure he can survive rubbing elbows with the ton and hearing all the lies and deceptions that fuel the marriage market. Corisande Abbott is in London for the season, too—a woman Daniel prevented from eloping three years earlier, whom he has been unable to forget. The talented Metzger never fails to delight. Her trademark humor, clever premise, skillful writing, and memorable characters make this a book destined for high popularity. Libraries will want all three witty books in the True Love trilogy (Truly Yours, 2007; The Scandalous Life of a True Lady, 2008). --Shelley Mosley
