If wishes were earls: Rhymes with Love - Tapa blanda

"Witty dialogue, charming characters, and a heartbreakingly romantic plot enlivened with snippets from the heroine's beloved Miss Darby books and seasoned with a pinch of mystery make Boyle's latest, cleverly constructed Rhymes with Love series historical an absolute knockout." -- Booklist (starred review) on IF WISHES WERE EARLS "Written with a quirky sense of humor that spills onto nearly every page, If Wishes Were Earls is a madcap story that will entertain anyone who has enjoyed the previous books... [A] light-hearted and amusing tale." -- Historical Novel Society on IF WISHES WERE EARLS
