From Booklist
Damaris Myddleton thought she had purchased herself a titled husband, but it seems that the Marquess of Ashart prefers another's beauty to Damaris' money. Vowing to find an even better catch, Damaris enlists the help of Octavius Fitzroger, the marquess' friend, and begins plotting the next move in her hunt for a highborn spouse. Although Damaris can't deny that she is tempted by the sinfully handsome Octavius, he is unsuitable, lacking possessions and power and harboring a dark secret. It is only when Damaris is in danger that she discovers the coolly competent Mr. Fitzroger has other, more desirable qualities. In her final sublime installment in her Malloren series, RITA Award-winning Beverley picks up things shortly after Winter Fire (2003) as she pairs up another of her clever, bold heroines with another of her wickedly irresistible heroes. Expertly laced with danger and skillfully sweetened with sensuality, A Most Unsuitable Man is a most captivating romance. John Charles

FROM OUR EDITORS

The Barnes & Noble Review
Jo Beverley returns to the world of the Mallorens and Georgian England in a satisfying romantic historical that begins in humiliation and ends in triumph. Damaris Myddleton, who grew up humbly, recently inherited her late father's fortune and is determined to have a titled husband to go with her new wealth. She is embarrassed beyond belief when her fianc￯﾿ﾽ, Lord Ashart, publicly rejects her for his true love. His close friend, Fitzroger, is unsuitability personified -- dishonored, disgraced, and penniless -- but eager to ease Damaris's humiliation through a faked flirtation, which takes on a life of its own. While Fitz has secretly been asked by the Crown to protect Ashart, he also discovers that someone is trying to kill Damaris. Only by uncovering both state and family secrets can the couple clear the path to their future. Ginger Curwen
