4 ratings

March Lawson has never had much luck, and in a desperate move to save her family, she’s been posing as the Marquess of McCalpin. But when she’s summoned to a meeting with the Marquess himself, March expects jail time…not to be bewitched by dark hair and sapphire eyes.

Michael Cavensham, the Marquess of McCalpin and heir to the Duke of Langham, finds himself drawn to March despite the judgments from his peers. He isn’t sure he can trust March, especially since Michael has a secret that could ruin him and his family.

But society conspires to keep March and Michael apart, and when March is accused of not being who she says she is, will Michael toss her aside or fight for the woman he’s come to love?

The Luck of the Bride, Book 3 of The Cavensham Heiresses, was about March Lawson and Lord Michael Cavensham, the Marquess of McCalpin, heir to the Duke of Langham. Losing both her parents when she was shy of a month of her 17th birthday, March became the head of what remained of her small family, which consisted of two sisters aged 11 and 10, and a one-year-old baby brother, the new Lord Bennett Lawson, Viscount Lawson. Note: This book began in 1805 with the prologue. Chapter 1 said it took place "Eighty years later"m which would have made March almost 97. I THINK the author meant 8 years later and not 80, which would have made March 25. Eight years after the death of her parents, March struggled to provide for them. Their guardian, Lord Burns had, for some unexplained reason, cut off any funds to their estate and she had not heard from him in over a year, and the attorney who had served their father had died without naming anyone as his successor. Trustees came and went, with the newest being Lord McCalpin, who had responded to March's letter with one of introduction and saying his solicitor would be the one to assist her further. Neither the Marquess nor the solicitor provided sufficient assistance. When their father's cousin started putting pressure on them by way of trying to force one of the sisters to marry him so he could gain access to the money left to each sister for their dowries, and with no other recourse, March was forced to pose as the Marquess of McCalpin by forging his signature to get the necessary funds to survive. Upon learning that someone had been accessing the trust fund belonging to March and signing the withdrawals in his name, Michael decided it was time to face the music and summon March to his home and find out what was going on. As he confronted March and learned the truth about their situation and why she had taken the risk of forging his signature, Michael stepped up to the plate and began righting the wrongs done to her family. The more time Michael and March spent together, the more they began to develop feelings for each other. However, March had an inferiority complex larger than the Rock of Gibraltar and it affected her every time Michael was near or complimented her. When March's cousin Rupert Lawson, showed up outside the Duke and Duchess of Langham's home, he threatened her if he was not allowed to marry her sister, Julia. Interrupted by Michael, Rupert said they would continue their discussion another time. Michael was livid when he learned of the threat, and he promised March she had nothing to fear. There were so many twists and turns to this book it will keep your head spinning long after you finish it! Sure, there were the usual angst and drama, but boy oh boy was there a fair amount of other emotions woven into each paragraph and chapter of the novel, mostly heartache, distrust, doubt, sadness, and fear. Love, joy, passion, and humor were also laced into the story, but it was definitely a rollercoaster ride to find them. It was difficult to put this book down. The characters were so well-developed, fleshed out, and mature it was a pleasure to read. There were the normal antagonists and protagonists one would expect in such a story, but the intrigue would give Sherlock Holmes a run for his money. This book definitely earned a five-star rating and a place with the Keeper for the Shelves collection.
