Embark on the breathtaking romantic adventures of The Lady Travelers Society in the brand-new series by #1 New York Times bestselling author Victoria Alexander.
Really, it’s too much to expect any normal man to behave like a staid accountant in order to inherit the fortune he deserves to support the lifestyle of an earl. So when Derek Saunders’s favorite elderly aunt and her ill-conceived — and possibly fraudulent — Lady Travelers Society loses one of their members, what’s a man to do but step up to the challenge? Now he’s escorting the world’s most maddening woman to the world’s most romantic city to find her missing relative.
While India Prendergast only suspects his organization defrauds gullible travelers, she’s certain a man with as scandalous a reputation as Derek Saunders cannot be trusted any farther than the distance around his very broad shoulders. As she struggles not to be distracted by his wicked smile and the allure of Paris, instead of finding a lost lady traveler, India just may lose her head, her luggage and her heart.
Derek and India are the start of a wonderful new series & A truly great book on it’s own. India is the very, very proper secretary who is always right and correct. Not a foot out of bounds. But now she is looking for her ‘lost’ relative. In walks the very not proper but trying to be good far too handsome Derek.Â
Loved it India is a self assured young woman on a mission to save her cousin / surrogate mother, who has disappeared whilst travelling the world. She blames the agency that arranged the travel for the disappearance, and especially the man she thinks is behind it all, Derek Saunters. The agency is in fact owned by his great aunt and 2 of her friends and to protect theirs and the agency’s reputation, he decides to locate the missing lady himself. India doesn’t trust him and decides to follow him to Paris…
Witty historical romance delights The Lady Traveler’s Guide to Scoundrels and Other Gentlemen by Victoria Alexander encompasses all that I love best about historical romance: a feisty, determined heroine, a handsome hero (with a touch of the rogue), a plot that involves a trip to Paris, and a side cast of entertaining characters that kept me chuckling.Â
