DESCRIPTION:
Nothing is simple when you’re thirty-fifth in line for the British crown, least of all marriage. Even his family’s Irish castle has been sold to a rich American who now employes Darcy’s father as a hired hand. Throwing these cares to the wind, nothing could deter us from our mission—except perhaps the news that my future father-in-law has just been arrested. With the elopement postponed, we head for Ireland where he insists he’s innocent, and it’s up to us to prove it—for better or worse.. It seems the rich American was murdered and Darcy’s father had more than enough motive to do the deed. Though he will inherit a title, Darcy is as broke as I am.

Queenie needs to go! I have to say that this installment just didn't hold my attention. Queenie needs to goor I need to stop buying the books. She is a very annoying character. How many more times do we need to read about her inadequacies? As for Darcy and Georgie, either move them on in their relationship or end it. Ten books worth of "almost but not quite" is enough.

It is one of the very few that I would buy in hardcover because I couldn't wait until the paperback came out. But to tell the truth, it's gotten a bit long in the tooth.
