An unlucky-at-love veteran gets more than he bargained for from his matchmaker in this Victorian romance by the author of When a Lord Needs a Lady.

Mr. Charles Norris needs help finding a wife . . .

For he has the unfortunate habit of falling for each Season's loveliest debutante, only to have his heart broken when she weds another. Surely Lady Marjorie Penwhistle can help him. She's sensible, clever, knows the ton, and must marry a peer, which he is not. Since she's decidedly out of his reach, Charles is free to enjoy her refreshing honestyâ??and her unexpectedly enticing kisses . . .

Lady Marjorie Penwhistle doesn't want a husband . . .

At least not the titled-but-unbearable suitors her mother is determined she wed. She'd rather stay unmarried and look after her eccentric brother. Still, advising Mr. Norris is a most exciting secret diversion. After all, how hard will it be to match-make someone so forthright, honorable, and downright handsome? It's not as if she's in danger of finding Charles all-too-irresistible herself . . .

Praise for The Spinster Bride

"Alternates between being funny thanks to spot on humorous dialog and heart wrenchingly realistic due to Jane Goodger's attention to detail and accuracy." â??Fresh Fictio

Received this story as a gift for an honest opinion. The Spinister Bride had me smiling through the whole story. I was also rooting for the main characters Charles and Marjorie to admit their feelings. Would definitely read this book again. I have found another favorite. Loved it!! ( )

I discovered this author only a couple of years ago and ever since I did, I’m just enamored with every character she creates, and not just her heroes and heroines.

‘The Spinster Bride’ is the fourth book in her Lords and Ladies series, but each one is unique and stand alone, and not connected with the others story wise, but rather character wise, meaning that the main characters were introduced to us in an earlier book.

We met both hero and the heroine of this tale in ‘When a Lord Needs a Lady’ and while I wanted to scream and pounce on Marjory in that book, in this one, I just wanted to give her a huge hug. Hero of this book I loved right off the bat. I think I related to him on so many levels, especially being loud and rambunctious.

Another thing you’ll note if you decide to read this author is the way she weaves multiple stories within the main one. In this tale we not only get to root for Marjory and Charles, but we can’t help but fall madly in love with George, Marjory’s younger brother who suffers from an affliction that can only be diagnosed today as Autism spectrum disorder. People, my heart went to tiny pieces as I met this character. I adored him!

But what sets this tale apart as well, is another person’s point of view from as far as forty years ago, that of Dorothea, Lady Summerfield who is our heroines horrific, overbearing and title hunting mother from hell. I hated her with every fiber of my being, and then the author throws me a curve ball, and I had to come to realize why this woman did the things she did, which in the end made her more human than I could have thought her to be.

I highly recommend this story because how can you go wrong with having to read three romances within one story?!
