During a stint as a stay-at-home-mother, she decided it was time to “write that book.” She could set her own hours and would never have to wear pantyhose to work! It was a slow start but she slogged onward and seven years later, she got the thrill of seeing her first book hit the bookstores. Christine lives in Wisconsin with her family.

    Hope Strickland has to deal with the problem of the fact that there has been an earl found for the family estate and he's on his way. He has requested an audit and she's worried that some of the items her grandmother sold will be missed. Her sister's husband engages Gregory Drake to help. A self-made man he's well known for fixing the problems of the aristocracy. Hope thinks that the best way to save the family is to marry the new earl but she finds Drake a distraction.It's interesting and fun and I enjoyed the read. The Grandmother is so funny. Every scene she's in she steals the show.
