Set in Regency England THE LADY MOST LIKELY… is a bout an irritable handsome horse-mad earl, Hugh Dunne, the Earl of Brairly. He’s decided it’s time to take a wife and beget an heir after being kicked in the head by one of his beloved horses. He is sore to see the Earldom slip into the hands of slimy slinky cousin. There is one small hiccup. He hasn’t a clue how to go about obtaining a wife. Buying, housing, feeding and training his beloved Arabians is where he feels most at home. So what’s an Earl to do when searching for a bride?

Help comes in the way of his loving and devoted sister, Lady Caroline, who only want to see her happy. Lady Fincley has a plan. Take one house party and a list of the most available, interesting and beautiful bells will do.
Guest list includes: the reigning beauty the season, Miss Gwendolyn Passmore along with always out spoken Miss Kate Peyton and the one woman whom has vowed to never marry again. To make things and give her brother a run for his money arriving on the scene war hero Captain Neill Oakes and the notorious and terribly eligible and Lord Braily’s closest friend, new Earl of Charters

Throw in house party games, dances, ‘do you love your neighbor’ dinner game, add in a birthday surprise and this is one house party you don’t want to miss.

Avon Books has taken three of today’s leading ladies of historical romance and created a phenomenal three part novel, “THE LADY MOST LIKELY…” New York Times bestsellers Julia Quinn, Eloisa James and Connie Brockway had this reader up until the break of dawn. Readers this is a can-not-put-down-burn-your-fingers have to read book.

I admit I wasn’t quite sure to expect. I knew I was in for a exciting and brilliantly written read. There was much more than that. Yes, this book is in three parts, but the unique thing is that you can’t tell because the stories are intricately and flawlessly woven together. This book gives each authors fan base a taste of their favorite author; then some Readers are able to tell, slightly from author to author. In no way does it interrupt the plot of the storyline or jerks a reader from couple to couple.

THE LADY MOST LIKELY… will be like a warm baked brown with hot fudge, topped with whipped crème and a cherry just waiting for you to take a bite. YUM!
In other words THE LADY MOST LIKELY… is a delicious and decadent read that pleasures all the senses. I highly recommend readers should have this exciting read on their TBR and/or eReader's wish list.
