However, she often participates in what would be considered scandalous behavior for the time period. Lucinda considers herself a godly woman, one who hopes to live a solitary life in the future, enabling her to focus on her faith and her charitable work. The story was well paced from the start and never lost momentum. Delamere captured the Victorian setting beautifully. The third book in The Love’s Grace Series, A Bride for the Season is a sweet romance with strong Christian themes. As James gets to know the vibrant, charming, and passionate woman behind Lucinda’s shy exterior, he comes to the distressing realization that he doesn’t want her in anyone’s arms but his own. But her father won’t agree to a dowry unless James can also find a suitable husband for the lady’s elder sister-quiet, reserved Lucinda Cardington. Snared in a scandal that for once is not his doing, he is forced to do the honorable thing and offer marriage to the lady. James Simpson’s rakish ways have finally caught up with him. Yet when her sister places herself in a compromising situation with London’s most scandalous bachelor, the entire family’s reputation comes perilously close to ruin. Lucinda Cardington doesn’t care that she is close to being “on the shelf.” She has more serious pursuits in mind and is perfectly content to leave dreams of romance to silly young ladies like her sister.
