Lady Charlotte always gets her man / by Marsh, Violet,author.;
"Fleeing through the streets of London in a gown meant for her betrothal ball is not Lady Charlotte Lovett's finest decision. Seeking shelter at her estranged cousin's coffeeshop, however, turns out to be utterly inspired. Soon Charlotte has brewed up a plan to help create a secret backroom where women can sip coffee and debate on equal terms with men. It's also the perfect way to escape her arranged engagement. Not only will it provide income for her, but she can learn about London's dark side as she sets out to prove that her intended-or rather unintended-has villainous connections. Her first lead is the man's own brother, Dr. Matthew Talbot. The third son of a duke, Matthew was born into the peerage but never welcomed, especially by his malicious older brother. His choice to become a physician and a naturalist has cemented his outsider status. But when the alluring Lady Charlotte shows up at his favorite coffeehouse, the scholarly adventurer finds himself drawn back into her world of rarefied literary salons and upper-class elegance. Even as Charlotte is increasingly beguiled by Matthew, she becomes more and more convinced that he is hiding a secret, but does it involve his murderous older brother? Charlotte must decide whether to put her trust in Matthew so they can fight for their future and freedom in a world that challenges those who dare to defy the social order"--
