Charade is book three in the series. So you will see more of Joanna and get to know a new character, Lord Mayberry, as well as see how Jessica and Lord Sinclair find their way to each other.
Here is the back cover blurb:
Jessica Farrington fell in love with Lord Ashley Sinclair the moment
they were reacquainted. She only wishes that he actually felt the same desire
for her, as she does for him. Jessica soon
finds that she must leave London when a letter arrives informing her of her
father’s assassination attempt in Vienna.
Her best friends join her on her journey and she realizes that Ashley
will be along as well. She is secretly thrilled, for it will afford her more
time in his company.
Enter Lord Knight, a handsome and romantic masked Romeo, who takes
Jessica’s breath away. His late night visits to her balcony, and his stolen
kisses have Jessica’s heart soaring. His
dancing grey eyes and wicked smile remind her so much of her love, but are her
suspicions of her amorous Romeo correct?
Join Jessica and her friends as they travel to Vienna to unmask an
assassin and find her heart’s desire.
And would you like a sneak peek? A little excerpt to wet your palate? Well, here you go:
“Joanna,
I really do wish that I knew what kind of mischief you were getting into.” Jessica
frowned as Thomas walked away.
“What
do you mean, Jess?” Joanna looked at her innocently. “I am not up to any kind
of mischief.”
“Oh
yes you are, and I will figure it out, one way or another,” Jessica said
stubbornly. “I know you too well for that innocent act to work on me. And
another thing, what is going on between you and Thomas? Are you falling in love
with him? And what about Jonathon?”
“No
I am not falling in love with Thomas,” Joanna whispered vehemently. “And I
really do wish all of you would stop bringing up Jonathon Montgomery in my
presence. I have told you that I am giving up on that dream and I do not want
to be reminded of it any longer.”
“Miss
Deville, I am so sorry that we missed our dance.”
“Lord
Crenshaw, it is my fault entirely and I do apologize. I completely lost track
of time, for Lord Mayberry was kind enough to show me around his Mother’s
garden. She has some beautiful irises that I just had to see.” Joanna smiled
prettily up at him. “I do still have a quadrille open for later this evening,
if you would still care to dance with me.”
“I
look forward to it, my dear.” Lord Crenshaw bowed. “Until later, my dear.”
“Remind
me to tell Alex that I had to give away his quadrille.” Joanna grinned at
Jessica who had a bewildered look upon her face. “What is it now Jess?”
“Since
when have you become so interested in flowers? First my Mother’s tulips and now
Lady Mayberry’s irises, and do not try and tell me that you have always had an
interest in them, for I shall not believe a word of it.”
Joanna
smiled. “Perhaps someday I will be able to tell you all about it. When we are
old and gray and have nothing better to do, but for now I want to dance.”
