This one had me smiling and giggling much of the time. Lady Amelia is a handful and then some.

She’s the youngest sister of the new Duke of Durham, a manure-shoveling American (of all things). Amelia cannot abide the nonsensical rules of the Ton that she’s supposed to live by. The jams she gets into furnishes the gossip columns with lots of fodder and has her very English aunt the Duchess of Durham at her wits end. After Amelia pulls one of her exhausting tirades, the Duchess tells the maid to put laudanum in Amelia’s night drink. This “sets the fox among the chickens.”

Unaware of being given the drug, Amelia goes out after midnight when she hears the voice of a man singing. She sets a frenzy of “misdeeds” in motion that takes the reader on a vicarious sightseeing tour of London; but, more importantly on a journey toward love—sensual, sweet, and accepting love. The journey is not without bumps and stumbling blocks that keep the reader on full alert and more than a little anxious at times

Alister Finley-Jones, the singing man and heir to Baron Wrotham, is considered a wastrel by his uncle. Their back story is a tangled, sad one. It highlights how the social and economic system of that era impacted the lives of the young men of the peerage. After formal education their main occupations seemed to be gambling, racing, drinking, and looking for an acceptable bride who has a BIG dowry. Honest, hard work does not seem to be appropriate for these young men.

Maya Rodale creates a delightful story that encompasses family love and exasperation, social taboos, economic struggles, and romantic love that withstands the ‘slings and arrows’ of a snobbish society. Moreover, she keeps an undercurrent of humor bubbling along overtly or covertly throughout it all.
