Friendship…
Lady Theodora Montgomery departed Miss Emmeline’s School of Education and Decorum for Ladies of Outstanding Quality to attend her first London Season—her three dearest friends by her side. With her sharp wit and skill on the archery field, Theo is far more interested in winning a large purse prize than securing a husband. But when she is unmasked on the tourney grounds, her face exposed to all, she fears her identity and days spent gallivanting around London will cause not only her undoing, but the downfall of her friends as well.
Loyalty…
Mr. Alistair Price, heir to the elderly Viscount Melton, arrived in London with his eight younger siblings in tow. He is charged with keeping his family name above reproach until the Season starts and his sister, Miss Adeline Price, is presented to society—though that proves far more difficult than Alistair ever expected when he discovers his rebellious sister climbing down the side of their townhouse and scurrying off to Whitechapel for an archery tournament. His focus remains on saving his family from the certain ruin and disgrace Adeline’s actions invited—until Alistair catches sight of another female archer, her arrow connecting with far more than the center of her target.
And honor above all…
With Theodora’s future—and that of her friends—in jeopardy, will she agree to a marriage devoid of affection, or risk everything for the man who won her heart?

I received this book from the author for an honest review.
EEEP!! I love being introduced to new words and new series. This series is going to be a fun one for sure. The series is about 4 Sister from Another Misters who meet at boarding school. We learn all about the bonds of sisterhood while in boarding school and then we see them in the first season of the Ton. Each girl captures your heart and you want to know about them for sure. Theo was a great start because we meet her and fall in love with her in Christina’s other book The Thief Steals Her Earl. Do you need to read this book to understand Theo’s story? No but it’s a great love match so you might want to pick it up after!!
Theo and Adeline are the two leaders …Adeline is the bossy leader but Theo is the brains of the group. They are thick as thieves. When Adeline introduces Theo to her brother she allows him to think she has a gentleman caller when in fact she doesn’t. So, the domineering older brother goes to yell at the caller to fall face first into this beauty with a smart mind and faster whip of an opinion.
Alistair is stunned that Theo can best him in everything from archery to how to deal with his sister Adeline. When he steals a kiss, he realizes he is in way too deep. He must marry off his sibling not get married himself!! Theo is so confused about everything. She is attracted to Alistair but she can’t be. He is the devil Adeline complains about. He is “their enemy”.
When some secret are let out about what the girls have been doing …..inappropriate things at that, Theo sacrifices herself for her friends but Alistair realizes he can’t let this woman go. The ending chapters seem to fly and we are left on the edge of our seats to see who Alistair and Theo can have an HEA together.
