The Gentleman''s Guide to Viceand Virtue meets Jane Austen in this witty, winking historical romance with a dash of mystery!Lady Victoria Aston has everything she could want: an older sister happily wed, the future of her family estate secure, and ample opportunity to while her time away in the fields around her home.But now Vicky must marry—or find herself and her family destitute. Armed only with the wisdom she has gained from her beloved novels by Jane Austen, she enters society''s treacherous season.Sadly, Miss Austen has little to say about Vicky''s exact circumstances: whether the roguish Mr. Carmichael is indeed a scoundrel, if her former best friend, Tom Sherborne, is out for her dowry or for her heart, or even how to fend off the attentions of the foppish Mr. Silby, he of the unfortunate fashion sensibility.Most unfortunately of all, Vicky''s books are silent on the topic of the mysterious accidents cropping up around her…ones that could prevent her from surviving until her wedding day.

A 2023 Sydney Taylor Honor Book! * A Bustle Best YA Books Out in 2022 title!Culinary delights abound, romance lingers in the air, and plans go terribly, wonderfully astray in this gender-bent take on My Fair Lady from Jennieke Cohen, author of Dangerous Alliance—perfect for fans of Bridgerton or A Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue. It’s 1830s England, and Culinarians—doyens who consult with society’s elite to create gorgeous food and confections—are the crème de la crème of high society.Helena Higgins, top of her class at the Royal Academy, has a sharp demeanor and an even sharper palate—and knows stardom awaits her if she can produce greatness in her final year.Penelope Pickering is going to prove the value of non-European cuisine to all of England. Her contemporaries may scorn her Filipina heritage and her dishes, but with her flawless social graces and culinary talents, Penelope is set to prove them wrong.Elijah Little has nothing to his name but a truly excellent instinct for flavors. London merchants won’t allow a Jewish boy to own a shop, so he hawks his pasties for a shilling a piece to passersby—but he knows with training he can break into the highest echelon of society.When Penelope and Helena meet Elijah, a golden opportunity arises: to pull off a project never seen before, and turn Elijah from a street vendor to a gentleman chef.But Elijah’s transformation will have a greater impact on this trio than they originally realize—and mayhem, unseemly faux pas, and a little romance will all be a part of the delicious recipe.

Vom Straßenverkäufer zum perfekten Gentleman?London 1833: Die Freundinnen Penelope und Helena besuchen die Royale Akademie der Kulinarik. Um ihre Ausbildung erfolgreich zu absolvieren, benötigen beide ein herausragendes Abschlussprojekt. Als sie dem einfachen Straßenverkäufer Elijah begegnen, lässt der Penelopes Herz höherschlagen – und bringt Helena auf eine Idee: Sie will Elijah ausbilden und ihn als Gentleman-Koch ausgeben. Wenn er mit ihrer Hilfe den royalen Kochwettbewerb gewinnt, wäre ihr der Rang als Jahrgangsbeste sicher! Doch Elijahs Verwandlung hat größere Auswirkungen auf die drei als gedacht …Begib dich auf eine köstliche Reise in die VergangenheitVerpasse dieses besondere Retelling nicht! Cohen überzeugt in dieser historischen My Fair Lady-Nacherzählung mit vertauschten Geschlechterrollen und einer Slow-Burn-Romance zum Dahinschmelzen. Einfühlsam erzählt die Geschichte von starken Frauen, Toleranz und Diversität und zeigt, dass es manchmal nur ein wenig Selbstvertrauen braucht, um Großes zu erreichen. Ein originelles My Fair Lady-Retelling voller Tiefgang und mit hinreißender Slow-Burn-Romance, nicht nur für Fans von Bridgerton!
