Three intrepid princesses find themselves targets in a deadly plot against the crown--until their uncle devises a brilliant plan to keep them safe... Of all her sisters, Princess Stefanie is by far the least amenable to law and order, which is why she's appalled to find herself masquerading as an unbearably drab clerk for the most honorable barrister in England. But her dull disguise turns out to have its privileges: namely, the opportunity to consort unchaperoned with her employer's exceedingly handsome nephew, James Lambert, the Marquess of Hatherfield. Hatherfield quickly realizes that his uncle's spirited new clerk is, in fact, a lovely young woman of daring habits. The outwardly impeccable marquis isn't about to reveal her deception. After all, he's hiding a dangerous secret of his own. But when one too many escapades with the madcap princess bring Hatherfield's troubled past to light, it is only Stefanie's sharp wits that stand between the marquis and utter disaster, and only Hatherfield's daring that can save the princess from the shadowy agents bent on finding her.… (mais)

This one's wonderful, a great one-time escapade. This whole series, Princess in Hiding, is remarkable for their unusual plots and suspense. These books are set in the 1890s.

It's time for the youngest princess to take her turn on the stage. Princess Stefanie is masquerading as a law clerk with a fake mustache, boarding at the home of the eminent lawyer, Sir John Worthington. James Lambert, the marquess of Hatherfield, is her guardian angel. She has adventures and escapades and a generally good time, until James' past comes calling.

James is being manipulated by his parents, the impoverished Duke and Duchess of Southam. They are insisting that he marry Lady Charlotte Harlow, for her dowry so they can pay off their debts.

All's well that end's well, but this one keep me on the edge of my seat until the last few pages.



Note: Once again, the Duke of Olympia makes his appearance near the end of the book to reveal his role behind the scenes. I've pre-ordered the sequel, How to School Your Scoundrel, which is the story of the last sister. ( )

Loved it! I enjoyed Stefanie and Hatherfield when they showed up in Emilie and Ashland's story, and I enjoyed them even more in their own. I think the wardrobe scene might have been my favorite. I still don't quite understand Dingleby's role in the story, but hopefully that will be cleared up in Luisa's story. Speaking of Luisa's story... After reading the excerpt for How to School Your Scoundrel, I thought the names of the characters sounded familiar, but I didn't think much of it. I picked up the book again to read blurbs about other books in the very back, when I came up on the one for A Gentleman Never Tells, book 2 of Juliana Gray's first trilogy. I read it again to refresh myself on what it was about, when it hit me: awful, nasty Somerton was the hero opposite Luisa! I just knew it had to be. So I got to work, grabbed Elizabeth and Roland's book off the shelf, and proceeded to re-read the ending. I was blown away by how differently I saw that book's ending, knowing who everyone was! I have to give a lot of credit to Juliana Gray for writing Luisa into her first series with none the wiser!! Now I have to read the final book to see how stupid Somerton can be redeemed by Luisa. ( )
