What happens when the Mad Matchmakers of Waterloo join forces to find wives for each other? Delectable chaos. And no woman in London is safe.

Welcome to book 1 in the fabulous new series from USA Today Bestselling Author Barbara Devlin.

A WOUNDED WARRIOR
British Army Major Anthony Erasmus Hildebrand Bartlett, 7th Marquess of Rockingham, returns to London a tortured soul after losing an arm at Waterloo. Suffering incomprehensible terror from his wartime experiences, or what is referred to as nostalgia, Anthony is now the sole heir to a dukedom and a betrothal he doesn’t want. He wishes he died on the front lines with his elder brother, and the last thing he needs is a wife. Can Anthony find the will to live again?

A RELUCTANT DEBUTANTE
Lady Arabella is not so sanguine about her prospects, because she doesn’t want to marry anyone. That Anthony is injured and may be mad is the least of her concerns. Smart and perceptive, she sees through the tormented soldier’s pain, offering comfort and support that reaches through the fog to awaken him, and she is drawn to her fiancé.

When the duke imprisons Anthony in an asylum, Arabella must rely on her wit and wisdom to free the man she loves.

A wounded warrior. A reluctant debutante. A love worth fighting for.

When the notorious Mad Matchmakers of Waterloo vow to find wives for each other, London is thrown into delicious chaos. And for Major Anthony Bartlett, 7th Marquess of Rockingham, the timing couldn’t be worse.

Returning from battle scarred in body and soul, Anthony has no interest in love—especially not with the woman he’s been promised to. But Lady Arabella sees past his wounds to the man within. Fiercely intelligent and unafraid, she offers him more than just a marriage of convenience—she offers him hope.

Yet when Anthony is locked away in an asylum by his own family, Arabella must risk everything to free the man she never expected to love.

A sweeping historical romance filled with passion, resilience, and a love that defies all odds, this heartwarming listen is perfect for fans of Regency matchmaking, wounded heroes, and the healing power of love.
