About this ebook

Almack’s admits only the crème de la crème of Regency society.
At least, it used to...

Annabel Chalfont, Countess of Fellbridge, has two young sons to raise, a mountain of her late husband’s debts to repay, and a country to defend — such is the lot of the newest Lady Patroness of Almack’s.

To the rest of the world, the Lady Patronesses are the gatekeepers of London’s most exclusive venue. But when they aren’t dispensing vouchers to the worthy few, they’re secretly using their extraordinary magical abilities to defend king and country against supernatural crime.

When someone starts forging entrance vouchers to Almack’s in Annabel’s name, dozens of upstarts and social climbers flood the Wednesday night balls. To save her honor and preserve Almack’s reputation, Annabel must uncover the mysterious forger soon. If only she didn’t have to do it under the unnerving hungry wolf stare of the Marquis of Quinceton...

The Forgery Furore is the first installment in The Ladies of Almack's series by Marissa Doyle.

Author

Marissa Doyle

Marissa Doyle graduated from Bryn Mawr College and went on to graduate school intending to be an archaeologist but somehow got distracted. After working in a nursing home, in fundraising, and as a stay-at-home mom, she finally figured out what it was she really should be doing (apart from the mom part), and started writing a romance novel. Three books later a perceptive contest judge told her that her story would make a great young adult book, and she hasn’t looked back since.Her young adult books Bewitching Season, Betraying Season, and Courtship and Curses, all from Henry Holt Books for Young Readers/Macmillan, blend history (remember that archaeology background?) with a dash of magic and a heaping tablespoon of romance, and have won multiple awards and recognition in both the romance and children’s literature worlds. She lives in her native Massachusetts with her family, including a bossy pet rabbit, and loves making quilts, sailing, and antiques.Please visit her at her website, www.marissadoyle.com, and at NineteenTeen http://nineteenteen.com.

    Better than I expected - I like a story that can be realistic as to scope. As it is the pacing and range of the story fits with its length, and I appreciate that It's all lightly drawn with plenty of room for characters to develop in future stories. There were some modern assumptions made in the text, but I didn't find them too jarring.

    An amusing book, but I understand now why a reviewer on Goodreads took such umbrage. This is hardly a romance- the mystery is almost opaque and half the book is notes. The magic is almost incidental. another slightly irritating point is that the author keeps repeating herself. If anything, it's like a sitcom. Amusing and light.
