About the book
HE WAS THE IDEAL HUSBAND -- FOR HER SISTER! — The Earl of Beresford was the perfect husband -- wealthy, charming... and wickedly witty. Veronica determined he should marry her sister Rachel. — Sister Charlotte had also found the perfect man -- for Veronica. Now she must escape the boring baron and deal with the antics of her madcap youngest sister, too.
Her matchmaking seemed highly successful, so why did the happiness of Rachel and Beresford make Veronica so miserable? Sadly, she resigned herself to life as a spinster schoolteacher. But she reckoned without the Earl of Beresford and his devilish sense of humor!
