Cathy Maxwell Knihy

Přitažlivý romantický příběh tří sester vnášejících smyslný rozruch na anglický sňatkový trh v období regentství napsala zkušená autorka s obdivuhodnou znalostí doby, lidské psychiky a lidských osudů. Když bývalý irský námořní kapitán, z něhož se stal nenapravitelný gambler, zmizel a byl považován za mrtvého, zanechal tři zchudlé dcery bez prostředků s jejich tetou a bezohledným bratrancem. Dara, prostřední ze sester, zosnuje odvážný plán: v hráčském doupěti vsadí to málo, co vlastní, aby uhradily cestu do Londýna a zúčastnily se tam společenské sezony. Dara je odhodlaná s využitím jejich půvabného vzhledu a důvtipu najít pro každou sestru manžela – vévodu! Zdá se, že zpočátku se její bláznivá intrika ujme, dokonce se o nich prohlašuje, že v sezoně „nemají konkurenci“, a nápadníci z řad vévodů a lordů, které kvůli financím potřebují, se střídají u jejich dveří. Jenže odvážné ženy jdou vždycky ruku v ruce se skandály. Dařiny plány zpochybní Michael Brogan, jenž ji provokuje, a zároveň v ní vyvolává pokušení. Pohledný, inteligentní a prosperující politik, navíc Ir, rozhodně není tím, co Dara pro sebe a své sestry hledá. Nemůže se však ubránit jeho přitažlivosti, ačkoliv zpočátku se zdá, že Michaelovi se víc líbí její sestra Elise. Michael není vévoda, ale je rozhodnutý poučit Daru o ctižádosti, o mužích, a především o lásce, takže Dara je na rozpacích, zda by neměla své plány změnit...
