I think this is another one I threw across the room in frustration at the stupidity of the heroine. I don't think I finished it. ( )

The third in Camp's Matchmaker series. A few new revelations about the ongoing plot (I *knew* it!), but mainly this is Callie's story.

At 23, Calandra Lilles has decided to get serious about marriage, partly to get her grandmother off her back, but mainly to get out from under her brother's thumb. Usually very lenient, he put his foot down about the Earl of Bromwell, with whom Callie had been enjoying a conversation. There is obviously bad blood between Rochefort and Bromwell, but Rochefort won't explain why. So Callie ignores him and welcomes Bromwell's addresses. But Bromwell is mainly interested in revenge for his sister, whom Rochefort dishonored some fifteen years ago--or did he?

This is a romance novel, so everything turns out well, but the twists and turns on the road there are quite entertaining. ( )

The third book in the Matchmaker series. This one is about the relationships between brothers and sisters. The history of other characters is revealed and the stage is set for book four. A very good read: I enjoyed both lead characters. ( )

A few years ago, I picked up one of Candace Camp's regency novels and fell in love. "The Wedding Challenge" is the third book of her 'Matchmakers' series and her most recent.

Callie is the sister of the Duke of Rochford and at 23, she's independent and socially savvy and doesn't need a watchdog. Why then is her brother being so pig-headed and trying to dictate who she can and can't see? Especially since she's finally met someone who makes her heart beat faster...

The Earl of Bromwell despises the Duke of Rochford. He believes Callie's brother dishonored his sister. He's doesn't intend to actually harm Callie or her reputation, but the more time he spends with her the more attracted he becomes.

"The Wedding Challenge" is another heart-warming tale of honor, attraction, deceit, and forgiveness by Candace Camp. The next tale in this series is "The Courtship Dance" scheduled for publication in February of 2009. It will feature two of the characters from this book! ( )
