Born to Be Wilde (Wildes of Lindow Castle Series #3)

by Eloisa James

Overview

The richest bachelor in England plays matchmaker…for an heiress he wants for himself! 

For beautiful, witty Lavinia Gray, there’s only one thing worse than having to ask the appalling Parth Sterling to marry her: being turned down by him.

Now the richest bachelor in England, Parth is not about to marry a woman as reckless and fashion-obsessed as Lavinia; he’s chosen a far more suitable bride.

But when he learns of Lavinia's desperate circumstances, he offers to find her a husband. Even better, he’ll find her a prince.

As usual, there’s no problem Parth can’t fix. But the more time he spends with the beguiling Lavinia, the more he finds himself wondering…

Why does the woman who’s completely wrong feel so right in his arms?

About the Author

Eloisa James is a USA Today and New York Times bestselling author and professor of English literature, who lives with her family in New York, but can sometimes be found in Paris or Italy. She is the mother of two and, in a particularly delicious irony for a romance writer, is married to a genuine Italian knight.

Editorial Reviews

08/01/2018
Beautiful, sought-after Lavinia Gray will do anything to save her mother from ruin, even propose to "Appalling" Parth Sterling, the wealthiest bachelor in town, a man who has always ignored her but who also has a reputation for fixing problems and getting things done. Naturally, Parth refuses. For one thing, he is not about to marry a woman as shallow and frivolous as Lavinia seems to be; for another, he has someone else in mind. Nonetheless, Parth is concerned, and when he learns that Lavinia is in dire financial straits, he vows to find her a suitable husband—someone good enough—a task that becomes more difficult as he spends time with Lavinia. A heroine with a genius for fashion attracts a bicultural hero who finally acknowledges her worth in a gorgeously crafted story that for all its lightheartedness addresses serious questions. VERDICT Flirty, sexy, and full of brilliant humor, this latest episode in the Wilde family saga overflows with familiar characters; a joyous romp and refreshing summertime diversion. Nicely done. James (Too Wilde To Wed) lives in New York City.
