Chance Would Be a Fine Thing
(2026)(The tenth book in the Chances series)
A novel by Emily E K Murdoch
Wilfred Zouch, Duke of Aynor, has been in love with his best friend, Miss Irene Chance, since…well, since forever. And she has no idea.
It’s not precisely her fault: Wilfred still hasn’t told her.
Besotted with the woman who only sees him as a brother, it is her actual brother who suggests to Wilfred that he should make Irene jealous.
And so he does. By pretending to court another lady.
It’s all part of a clever plan in Wilfred’s mind, but Irene finds herself absolutely mortified that her best friend—her Wilfred! —would even consider courting someone without telling her.
Feelings of anger, rage, and a strange sort of possessiveness rise and yet Irene cannot for the life of her understand why.
Until a late-night conversation and a little too much of her father’s liquor led to kisses that neither of them can ignore…or explain.
Why can’t Wilfred admit his affection for his best friend? Why does Irene keep laughing when anyone suggests that the two of them may be well suited?
And if chance would be a fine thing…what happens when the pretend courting with the other woman goes horrendously awry?
This novel continues the highly anticipated Chance family drama, with sixteen cousins and triple the problems. Tropes include best friends to lovers, found family, secrets and lies, misunderstandings, and of course, Emily E K Murdoch’s tried and true method of sizzling, joyful romance.
This full-length novel is a steamy Regency romance with a happily ever after and no cliffhangers. It is part of a series that can be read in any order.
