“Oh, believe me, Miss Duncan, that you could never do.” The disconcerting smile was in his eyes again, and she hadn't even taken off her glasses.

Prudence took the plunge. She had to at some point and it would at least banish that smile. “Very well,” she said. “Will you take the case?”

Jane Feather's

The Wedding Game

Chastity's story

April 2004

In this dazzling new trilogy from the incomparable Jane Feather, a trio of spirited sisters harbor a secret that could scandalize all of London . . .

English society knows them as the Honorable Misses Duncan. But what society doesn't know is that these elegant—fiercely independent—young beauties make it their business to ignite romance as the clandestine founders of a discreet matchmaking service. And a rewarding business it is as, one by one, they meet their own matches . . .

Constance . . .

The eldest and most like their suffragette mother, sophisticated Con would rather be a spinster than marry Mr. Wrong—although she's somewhat vague about what constitutes Mr. Right . . .

This is her story . . .

Prudence . . .

Bookish middle sister Pru has a head for business—and a heart for mischief—wherever and whenever it's least expected . . .

Chastity . . .

Wickedly funny and naturally flirtatious, young Chas attracts suitors like honey draws bees. But, like her sisters, she's in no hurry for marriage . . .
