The Proposition of the Season

By: Michelle Kenney

Narrated by: Hollie Hales

Perfect for Bridgerton and Jane Austen fans! Fall in love with the Fairfax family and make this your favourite new Regency series…

‘And you’ve come here today to read me a lecture in all my deplorable habits?’

‘No…’ she stalled, wracking her brain for inspiration and failing, ‘I’ve come here to ask you to marry me!’

After three disastrous seasons, bookish Josephine Fairfax believes that she is long past the age of finding her perfect fictional hero. But when her brother’s loathsome Monstrous Marriage Masterplan results in her youngest sister Matilda’s engagement to the vastly unsuitable Lord Huntingly, even she must draw the line.

Josephine may be the bluestocking sister, but she is still a Fairfax who will sacrifice anything for family, even proposing marriage to a man who may be the most dangerous gentleman in the ton…

Each book in the Fairfax Sisters series can be read as a standalone.

A lovely read but..

3.75⭐️

I have to admit that it took me longer to finish this one. I simply expected more interactions between our MCs. I understand the mystery of the duel was the main plot and trying to uncover the truth was the goal but i wished we had more interactions and more banter than we actually did, like their first meeting was everything. I really enjoyed that scene. Still a fun read though.
