In Krahn’s busy but evenly paced second Sin & Sensibility Regency (after A Good Day to Marry a Duke), Reynard Boulton, current gossipmonger and future viscount of Tennehill, has his hands full with the headstrong, beautiful American heiress Frances “Frankie” Bumgarten, whose family he’s vowed to protect. Reynard doesn’t usually keep other people’s secrets—he’s focused on protecting his own—but Frankie earns his silence the moment he meets her. Frankie’s mother demands that all three of her girls marry titled gentlemen to secure the family’s place in high society, so when Frankie’s sister Claire runs off with a musician, Frankie enlists Reynard’s help in retrieving her before anyone finds out. Frankie has vowed to never get married—especially not to the sneaky, blackmailing duke who’s threatening to ruin her family if she doesn’t give in to him—but Reynard might change her mind. Reynard and Frankie are a perfect match in wit and strength. Tame love scenes highlight their deep desire. There’s a lot of romance in this romp, and Claire and Julian’s story could easily get its own novel; at times it threatens to overwhelm Reynard and Frankie’s story. Readers will enjoy watching all three of the book’s couples race to the finish line. Agent: Gail Fortune, Talbot Fortune.

American silver heiress Frances "Frankie" Bumgarten is disheartened to find that the man she bashed with a wooden bread paddle when she found him in her kitchen in the middle of the night is none other than Reynard Boulton, aka "The Fox." One of the ton's foremost information brokers and collector of secrets--and as handsome and arrogant as they come--Reynard was simply bringing Frankie's drunk uncle home, but she wants nothing to do with the notorious gossip hawk. Yet fate has other plans, and as events continue to throw them together, they can't deny the unwanted sparks that ignite between them. A colorful cast of characters, including an overbearing mother; a lovable but dangerously irresponsible uncle; a love-blinded and musically gifted sister; and an imperious Prussian duke, add depth and intrigue to a romance that keeps the action lively and the pages turning. VERDICT A fearless, irrepressible heroine and a hero who matches her every move meet in a complex, richly plotted story, adding another sparkler to Krahn's engaging series. Krahn (A Good Day To Marry a Duke) lives in Bradenton, FL. [Previewed in Kathryn Howe's "Love Changes Everything," LJ 10/15/18.]

The way Frances Frankie Bumgarten figures it, Reynard Boulton owes her. After all, if it were not for her timely interference (aka snooping), Reynard would probably find himself railroaded into marrying the conniving and desperate Marcella Tutty. Of course, Frankie knows a thing or two about what it feels like when you are being stampeded to the altar since her mother keeps pushing her into the willing arms of the odious Maximillian, Duke of Ottenberg. However, when her younger sister, CeCe, finds her own true love, a penniless yet gifted French musician, Frankie will do whatever she must to see to it that CeCe gets her happily-ever-after. In her latest historical tale, Krahn once again strikes the perfect balance between sharp wit and sexy romance.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2018, American Library Association.)
