Clever, popular, and deliciously shocking, the ladies' periodical Mrs. Goode's Magazine for Misses only employs women who are equal to the challenge-and sometimes the challenge includes romance . . . As the daughter of a clergyman, Julia Addison knows she'll never be able to fulfill her lifelong dream of acting on the stage. But writing forthright reviews of the Season's most popular plays for Mrs. Goode's Magazine for Misses, popularly known as Goode's Guide to Misconduct is surely the next best thing. Even better, she's got a ticket to Ransome Blackadder's latest satire about English society-a farce as aggravating as it is accurate.

But when Graham realizes she is the critic who panned his first play-and she discovers he is in fact the man behind Blackadder's wicked pen-will it bring down the curtain on their romance-not to mention the magazine that published the humiliating review Or can an unexpected collaboration set the stage for a scandalous love affair
