The Lady Makes Her Mark — Susanna Craig
In this Bridgerton era You've Got Mail, the clever, popular, and deliciously shocking ladies' periodical Mrs. Goode's Magazine for Misses only employs women who are equal to the challenge -- and for one satirical cartoonist her greatest challenge will be keeping her identity a secret from a certain Earl, who is one of her most frequent subjects. A fast-paced, innovative, sexy historical romance with a modern twist that readers of Sabrina Jeffries, Sarah MacLean, and Julia Quinn will adore.
Known only as “Miss C.” Constantia Cooper creates satirical cartoons for Mrs. Goode's. But her anonymity hides a more shocking secret -- one that requires she remain elusive. When a scandal at the magazine threatens to expose her, Constantia packs up and flees. But in her haste, she is struck by a carriage and suffers a blow to the head. Fortunately, she's rescued by a gentleman. Unfortunately, he is all too familiar. Feigning amnesia seems Constantia's best strategy . . .
Alistair Haythorne, Earl of Ryland, would never turn away a lady in distress -- even if he's often the target of said lady's biting satire. In fact, while “Miss C.” recuperates, he will have her teach his sisters to draw. Perhaps it will inspire a more flattering portrait of him . . .
But secrets make interesting bedfellows and as Constantia and Alistair grow closer, their opinions of one another change -- drastically. With love in the air, two things stand between them: Alistair's need to marry an heiress to keep his family's estate intact . . . and a series of threats that endanger Constantia's life. Can what keeps them apart ultimately bring them together?
