The "sweet, sexy, and utterly fun" (Emily Henry, author of People We Meet on Vacation) Regency Vows series continues with a witty, charming, and joyful novel following a seasoned debutante and a rakish theater owner as they navigate a complicated marriage of convenience.
Lady Emily Turner has been a debutante for six seasons now and should have long settled into a suitable marriage. However, due to her father's large debts, her only suitor is the persistent and odious owner of her father's favorite gambling house. Meanwhile, Lord Julian Belfry, the second son of a marquess, has scandalized society as an actor and owner of a theater??the kind of establishment where men take their mistresses, but not their wives. When their lives intersect at a house party, Lord Julian hatches a plan to benefit them both.

With a marriage of convenience, Emily will use her society connections to promote the theater to a more respectable clientele and Julian will take her out from under the shadows of her father's unsavory associates. But they soon realize they have very different plans for their marriage??Julian wants Emily to remain a society wife, while Emily discovers an interest in the theater. But when a fleeing actress, murderous kitten, and meddlesome friends enter the fray, Emily and Julian will have to confront the fact that their marriage of convenience comes with rather inconvenient feelings.

With "an arch sense of humor and a marvelously witty voice that rivals the best of the Regency authors" (Entertainment Weekly), Martha Waters crafts another fresh romantic comedy that for fans of Julia Quinn and Evie

This third book of the series was okay, but I didn't love it like I did the first two. It was enjoyable and entertaining.

Finally Julian and Emily’s book. The third book in the series, in To Marry and Meddle, Julian needs a wife to up his and his theatre’s respectability in the eyes of the ton. Of course there was only one option – Lady Emily Turner. She was not only friendly with him and his close friends, but she had also proven to be impervious to scandal even with the presence of her odious suitor. He proposes, naturally she accepts and the story that unfolds is how they work out things in their marriage.

I enjoyed our leads but that wasn’t surprising as I had been looking forward to their story since Book 2. Emily and Julian had chemistry but equally important, they had respect for each other. I enjoyed watching Emily come into her own as an “independent-ish” woman and Julian learning to listen. I thoroughly enjoyed Cecil Lucifer’s introduction ( )

Uneventful, to say the least. Maybe it was just me but I didn’t get much out of this book. Sure I enjoyed seeing the MCs from the previous installments and the chemistry amongst the cast but the lack of plot, dull romance, and storyline was uncompelling and overall put a damper on my reading experience.

To put it short and sweet: not worth your wild.

Sometimes a young woman is presented to the ton but is not chosen for reasons far beyond her control. In the case of our heroine, Lady Emily it is due to her father and his inability to pay back his debts.

Our hero, Lord Julian holds many of those debts and he needs something more than money though – he needs the respectability that a wife of good family will bring him. So he and Lady Emily come to an agreement. They will marry but there will be no love involved. None at all. It’s all a marriage of convenience for both of them

Until it isn’t.

And that, my dear readers is the joy of books such as these. The depth of that joy is always dependent on how the author presents the individuals and their backstories for we all know that love is hiding in the nooks and crannies of their purported agreements to marry for convenience.

To Marry and to Meddle gives the reader a fun and easy read with engaging characters in a story that while familiar is also just enough different to keep the pages turning. I read the book in a day and I was thoroughly entertained. ( )
