Always the matchmaker and never the bride - even when she's found her perfect partner...

Miss Theodosia Ashbrooke does not believe there is anything greater than matching the perfect pair - and she's become rather expert in it. Never mind that she's never found the missing half to her own soul and body.

Perhaps that's not her lot in life, even at the age of eight and twenty.

Her own failure is Albemarle Howard, Earl of Lenskeyn. He's rude, he's arrogant, he's overly confident, and nothing Theodosia can do makes a difference. Albemarle has found his match though: and he is sure it is Theodosia.

He's determined to have her. She's not ready to accept defeat just yet. When you've always been right it's impossible to accept that you're wrong.

Can Theodosia step away from her matchmaker mindset for one minute and see the man in front of her - or will she lose him forever?
