About this title

Review

From the Publisher

Amanda Quick's first novel marked the debut of one of the most accomplished storytellers chronicling the twists and turns of Regency England. Now, for her twelfth enthralling novel, she treats readers once again to the sophisticated writing, dazzling wit, and delightful mischief that have made her a phenomenal success.

For the first time in her thoroughly independent life, Imogen Waterstone needs a man. Not just any man, but Matthias Marshall, the infamous earl of Colchester, the legendary explorer feared for his implacable will and nerves of iron. For who better to help her foil a fortune hunter? Yet in all of her plotting, Imogen never anticipates her electrifying reaction to Matthias ... or that their artful charade through London's chandeliered ballrooms and shadowy gardens would uncover a murderous scheme.

Peopled by a memorable cast of characters, deftly blending suspense and humor, Mischief is a completely captivating read from the author hailed by USA Today as "one of the hottest romance authors today."
