A pretty impostor. A devil of a duke. A dangerous game of deception…

Lady Emily Hepplethwaite and her sister Cecily, two daring impostors of humble origins, concoct a daring plan to secure a prosperous future. They set their sights on the Duke of Wolverton, infiltrating a lavish country house party with Emily in the guise of a maid and Cecily posing as a wealthy heiress. Their mission: to charm the Duke into marriage and reclaim a life they lost.

But the “Devil” Duke is true to his name and infuriatingly uncooperative. Determined to unmask fortune hunters targeting his wealth and title, he turns the tables on the would-be deceivers by countering with a shocking proposal of his own. As Emily finds herself entangled deeper and deeper into her web of lies, she faces a choice that could alter the course of their lives forever.

When echoes of her past emerge—letters from a childhood confidant who once captured her heart—Emily discovers that fate has woven a tangled web indeed.

Will Emily's matchmaking mishap lead to disaster, or can love triumph in this game of deception?

"Lady Emily’s Matchmaking Mishap" is a sweet and sparkling Regency romp filled with witty banter, heartfelt secrets, and a charming twist on the fake engagement trope. Perfect for fans of second chances, enemies-to-lovers romance, and heroines who aren’t afraid to take matters into their own hands.
