EARL OF OAKHURST is here!

EOO

I am so excited to get to share this book with you–I had such a fun time writing it! First, the play between them had me snickering to myself as I was writing it. Secondly, I learned SO much doing my research. Between Penelope’s work with medicine and MacKenzie’s fascination with ancient Greece, I think I spent half the book doing research to write it!

EARL OF OAKHURST Blurb

CAN A WOMAN WHO DOESN’T WANT A HUSBAND
When she had her come out, Lady Penelope Keats was one of the most sought-after debutantes of the season. But now, years later and by her own choosing, Penelope is still unmarried. She has little interest in love and prefers to spend her time at St. Thomas’s hospital in pursuit of medical knowledge and helping others. However, staying unwed when one’s mother is a notorious matchmaker is no easy feat.

AND A MAN WHO DOESN’T WANT A WIFE
Through unfortunate circumstances, James MacKenzie is the new Earl of Oakhurst, a title he never expected or wanted. When he is summoned by his only living relative, his grandmother the Dowager Countess of Oakhurst, to attend to her in London so that she might instruct him on his duties as earl, including finding a bride, he reluctantly complies. Upon arrival, he finds the older woman ill and in need of medical attention. When his grandmother proves difficult and resistant to help, he allows Lady Penelope’s aid in treating her.

MAKE THE PERFECT MATCH?
When both learn of the other’s lack of desire for love, they know the best chance to escape those seeking to wed them is to come to an agreement—one that will free them both from the pressures of matchmaking. But a marriage of convenience doesn’t imply a marriage without passion. As their feelings eventually warm toward one another, old enemies emerge and threaten everything they have worked for. Will they be able to draw strength from their blossoming love to defeat those who seek to destroy them, or will they deny their feelings and lose one another forever?

The crack of the anti-aircraft guns rang out overh The crack of the anti-aircraft guns rang out overhead as a plane swooped low enough for the hum of its engine to echo through the cavernous tube station.
“I don’t know.” Grace glanced at the book, still pinched at her location. “I haven’t read that far yet.”
“Well,” the housewife said. “Go on.”
Grace hesitated. “You want me…to read it?” Everyone on the platform of Farringdon Station watched her expectantly. “Out loud?”
The lot of them all nodded, and quite a few smiled.
Suddenly, she was the painfully shy girl of her youth again in scuffed shoes that pinched at her toes, standing before the class with a bit of chalk in her hand and every set of eyes on her. Her stomach coiled itself into a knot.
“Please,” the young mother said. Another barrage of gunfire came, and she cowered down into herself.
Mr. Evans’s expressive brows crept upward in silent question.
Despite every brutally shy bit of Grace’s makeup screaming at her to refuse, she opened the book, licked her suddenly dry lips and began to read.

Thank you to @saraackermanbooks and @harpercollins Thank you to @saraackermanbooks and @harpercollins for this advance copy of Radar Girls! I was so excited to get it in the mail today 😆📚 

Ink photobombed my bookstagram setup, but clearly approves of this WWII historical fiction set in Hawaii where the gutsy heroine signs up for the first Women’s Air Raid Defense after Pearl Harbor. 

This book sounds incredible and I can’t wait to start it!!
