The Suitable Bride is book 2 in The Emberton Brothers series and is a clean Regency romance novel.
In the first novel, we followed the story of Richard, the eldest of the three brothers. In this book, we follow Edward the middle one.
Edward is the driven one out of the three. He has spent years working hard at achieving his dream. He’s a politician and dreams of being Prime Minister of Britain one day. He knows the advantages there are to be had in marrying and is eager to find a bride from amongst the set who will help advance his career.
Frances Davenport is the daughter of a lord. She is privileged and has led a life that has had its ups and downs…literally speaking ;-) She’s a little naughty. She doesn’t believe there is one single man out there who can please her as a husband and is resigned to that fact. Until she meets Edward, that is…
To celebrate the release of The Suitable Bride I am having a bumper giveaway with a big list of goodies! Please visit my blog to enter! And good luck! https://kjaminadra.wordpress.com/

Edward
Emberton wants to be Prime Minister. He has a passionate vision for the future
of England, which includes the abolition of slavery. As the son of a tradesman,
his journey to Parliament has been a difficult one, but there is only one thing
left to cement this foothold on the steps to Parliament – a suitable bride. She
must be of noble birth, reasonable intelligence, mild temperament, and
extraordinary beauty.
Frances
Davenport is most of those things. And a suitable marriage to Edward isn’t only
the answer to her prayers; it’s a way to keep her secrets. Edward is handsome,
driven, and better still, enchanted by her beauty. It’s more than a suitable
match; it couldn’t be more perfect.
But appearances are often deceiving, and Frances’ beguiling beauty comes with its own set of problems. Edward and Frances are about to discover that there’s more to marriage than suitability because neither is as suitable as they seem…
