I love this series. It is witty. It is humorous. It is captivating. I finished volume 2 in less than 24 hours!
Emma continues to accompany her cousin, Arabella, to social events during London's Season in hopes Arabella can lure a wealthy husband. Emma's job is to illuminate Arabella. Besides being her cousin's companion, Emma slowly begins a friendship with the gentleman renting a garret in Lapis Lazuli Minor, continues to outwit her greedy cousin Archibald, and becomes acquainted with the Duke (after reading his journal). Emma's somewhat unconventional behavior will amuse the reader like it amuses many gentlemen in this series. Of course, St. Crispin's ghost, The Roman, continues to make his appearance to Agnes, Emma's maid and cook.
I would love to see this series made into a movie. It reminds me of Jane Austen's books.
Consider: Maybe two swear words, Emma states that one man's hands wander, but she promptly hits him with a book
**Highly, highly recommend.
