Miss Gwendolyn Brinley accepted a temporary paid companion position for the Newport summer season, believing it would be a lark to spend the summer in America's most exclusive town. She suddenly finds her summer turning anything but amusing when her employer expects her to take over responsibilities as an assistant matchmaker. Tasked with the daunting prospect of attaining advantageous matches for her clients, Gwendolyn soon finds herself in the company of Mr. Walter Townsend, the catch of the Season, but a gentleman Gwendolyn finds beyond annoying.
Walter is reluctantly in search of a wife for the sake of his unruly motherless children. What he wasn't expecting was Miss Brinley, who turns his quest for a new wife into a complete and utter debacle.
The more time they spend together throughout the Newport Season, the harder it is for Gwendolyn to find Walter a wife when she realizes his perfect match might be ... her. *USA Today* bestselling author Jen Turano's trademark wit, sweet romance, and hilarious mischief will keep you turning the pages of this lively Gilded Age tale.

This was a fun book to read. Gwendolyn is hilarious yet a really strong character. There are three young children in it, who add to the joy of the story. I found that I really wanted to keep reading to see what would happen next and how it would end. I am looking forward to the next book in the series as there were some minor characters who need a story.

this one exceeded my expectations
From the cover I assumed a typical plot line and characters. I was pleasantly surprised by much of this novel. I literally laughed out loud a couple of times. The main love story was refreshingly different and the woman has a strong character. Several of the side characters were very interesting and I am looking forward to the rest of this series.
