My Review
The funny title of this book had me hooked and I thought it would be a fun read. I didn’t like it; I l-o-v-e-d it! So many funny things happened throughout the story that I had tears running down my cheeks.
Lord Jonathan Farnsworth is in desperate need of cash and the only thing he can reluctantly sell is his beloved mother’s manor home. After Miss Sally Duncan purchases it, Jonathan has what he thinks is a brilliant idea to getting the manor home back, marry Sally. It’s too bad that she has No intention of marrying him. The clumsiness of Jonathan’s attempts to court Sally and her realization that she can trust her heart with him make this a delightful story.
This will be a book that I will be rereading for years to come. It has wonderful main and secondary characters, clean romance, comedy, and a marvelous storyline.
Rating: 5/5 stars
Note: This painting is one my dad did when he returned home from England. I think it is the perfect backdrop for this book.
Book Description
She has everything Lord Farnsworth wants, including his manor.
Lord Farnsworth would rather rot in debtor’s prison than sell the one place that feels like home to him—his mother’s manor. That is, until he meets the woman who wants to buy it. Sally Duncan is beautiful, intelligent, and as rich as a baron—a rich baron, not a cash-strapped one like Lord Farnsworth. She’s the solution to every one of his financial problems and is bewitching to boot. All he needs to do is sell her his beloved manor and then charm her to the altar, and the manor will be his again. Simple, right?
But nothing is simple when Sally starts tearing apart his ancestral home and renovating it in a way no one would consider tasteful. She is wreaking havoc on everything, but he cannot give up on owning his mother’s estate again, nor can he imagine anyone but Sally as his wife.
And so he sticks with his plan.
What a horrible mistake.
