Overview

"The final installment in the ""hilarious and steamy"" (PopSugar) Regency Vows series follows the heir to a dukedom and a young widow, once very much in love, as they reunite years later to fake an engagement for the benefit of her sister. West, the Marquess of Weston, and Sophie, Lady Fitzwilliam Bridewell, have lately been spending a considerable amount of time together. But West and Sophie are not new acquaintances. In fact, years ago, they had once been nearly engaged until West's almost fatal curricle accident and his meddling father threw them off course. Now recently widowed, Sophie has put aside all thoughts of romance. But when her widowed sister, Alexandra, mentions a fondness for an earl, Sophie realizes that she may be holding her sister back. Alexandra won't move forward with an engagement until Sophie, too, settles down again, and so Sophie approaches West with a plan. They will announce their engagement and break things off once Alexandra is happily married. It'll be simple. After all, it's not like she is going to fall for West a second time, not when Sophie has sworn not to risk her heart again."

"""Waters concludes her heralded Regency Vows series with the most delightful and emotionally angst-ridden installment yet. Like the couple in Jane Austen's Persuasion, the heartbroken bachelor Lord Weston and the widowed Lady Fitzwilliam Bridewell have been separated by circumstance, but not lust, for seven years. Waters's books always give the reader consummate root-worthy characters of whom one can simply not get enough, which makes the appearances here of the beloved couples from the earlier books so satisfying, but Weston and Sophie are the most winning of them all. Equal parts scintillating romance and hilarious comedy, To Woo and to Wed is the very mix to win over readers' hearts everywhere."" --Natalie Jenner, internationally bestselling author of The Jane Austen Society"

"""To Woo and to Wed is the perfect conclusion to a perfect series. Martha Waters writes crackling dialogue that's genuinely funny while giving Sophie and West their long-awaited happily ever after. I'm sad this series is over but I can't wait to see what Waters writes next!"" --Kerry Winfrey, author of Waiting for Tom Hanks ""[E]ffervescent... Sophie is a refreshingly candid protagonist, whose ability to stand up to the duke is evenly matched with the care and concern she has for her sisters. Waters's fans will be sad to see this series end but deeply satisfied by this fetching finale."" --Publishers Weekly ""I first discovered Martha Waters' Regency Vows series a couple of years ago on NetGalley. These banter-filled historical romances are fun to read (and re-read)! The final book in the series, To Woo and to Wed, features a couple that's been hinted at since the very beginning of the series, and whose story I've been long awaiting. I'm so excited for another book full of the shenanigans, friendships, and humor I've come to rely on from Waters."" --NetGalley ""Longtime fans and new readers alike will be completely smitten as Waters (To Swoon and To Spar, 2023) brings her Regency Vows series to a glorious conclusion with a resplendently romantic tale that brilliantly showcases her delightfully wicked wit, buoyant prose, and exceptional gift for crafting exquisitely engaging characters."" --Booklist (starred review) ""Martha Waters' fifth and final Regency Vows romance, To Woo and to Wed, ends the series on a high note. In this second-chance romance, Waters once again brings us into a world full of heat and charm, where love matches are plentiful and happily ever afters are guaranteed... To Woo and to Wed is a perfect ending to the Regency Vows series, solidifying its status as one of the most entertaining historical romance series on shelves today."" --BookPage ""Perfect for Jane Austen fans! To Woo and to Wed brims with wit and warmth, plus an essential note of bittersweetness that makes this second-chance romance shine. West and Sophie's long-awaited HEA is an exquisite ending to a beloved series."" --Rosie Danan, author of The Roommate ""Waters concludes her heralded Regency Vows series with the most delightful and emotionally angst-ridden installment yet.
