About this listen

Calling all Bridgerton and Jane Austen fans! You are cordially invited to fall in love with your favourite new Regency romance novel…

‘Worthy of Georgette Heyer…the most wonderfully satisfying five star Regency Romp’ Julie Caplin

‘I don’t pretend to know the details of your private life, Miss Fairfax, but you might do better to embrace the fortunate position into which you were born, rather than regret the one that only exists between the covers of a novel’

Miss Phoebe Fairfax dreams of being as free as her four brothers. When she discovers she is to be wed to a repugnant earl who is old enough to be her grandfather, she decides to embark on a real adventure…

Enter the insufferable – and insufferably gorgeous – Viscount Damerel.

A must-listen for fans of Evie Dunmore, Martha Waters and Virginia Heath

'The Mismatch of the Season is the perfect cosy read for fans of Bridgerton and Little Women. I devoured it like a thick hot chocolate on a cold winter’s night.' Holly Race, author of Midnight's Twins

'Proper Regency goodness in book form, with characters I adore!’ Bex Hogan, author of the Isles of Storm and Sorrow trilogy

'This had everything I want from a Regency novel: A lively, rule-breaking heroine and a surly Viscount to bicker with. I raced through it faster than a heroine on a runaway horse.' Andreina Cordani, author of The 12 Days of Murder

The story line sounds promising but the build up is too slow - that one wonders where it leads too - the final quarter of the book brings it together and makes it interesting

The narrator is doing an adequate job…

Too drawn out …
