Trouble at the Wedding

by Laura Lee Guhrke
Hennepin County Library audiobook 8 discs
read by Anne Flosnik
genre: historical romance

Christian De Quesne, Duke of Scarborough, needs to find a way to save his estate after his brother spent it dry and died. He is opposed to marrying an American heiress after a bad experience in his youth.

Annabel Wheaton does not care about love. She is marrying the Earl of Rumsford as a business proposition: he needs her money and she needs his status. Growing up poor in the country, she is tired of being shunned by "society."

Yes, it is predictable and typical of romances. So why do I bother? Eh. Escapism. Romance. Happy ever after.

I like this author's work. The vocal work by Flosnik was pretty good. I would read more of this author, but ought to avoid it like the plague. So many good books to read! And I spent time on this.
