You did it! We figured this one out! It is a truth universally acknowledged (by me for certain) that the Bitchery pretty much knows everything, and really, it's true. Scroll down to see the solution for this HaBO - and many thanks!

This HaBO is from Kristin, who is hoping to find this historical romance:
This book was a historical romance/romantic comedy.
The hero helps the heroine escape from her own wedding. At the beginning he is running after her in a field or a garden; I think maybe he wants to bring her back to the wedding but she convinces him otherwise. They go on a journey by carriage and boat, etc. At one point they get very wet and go to a hotel to dry off. The hero hires a fancy seamstress to make new clothes for the girl. They also rescue a dog who was being mistreated by its owner. I think they end up staying at the hero’s aunt’s house toward the end while trying to figure out what to do.
The book had a Julia Quinn feel but I looked at her website and it didn’t seem to match up.
Can we HaBO?




A Duke in Shining Armor by Loretta Chase?
Definitely A Duke in Shining Armour – Now I need to read it again!
That’s The Duke in Shining Armor by Loretta Chase!
Agreed. Definitely A Duke in Shining Armor. Loretta Chase is my queen of historical romance.
I don’t know the answer, but just went to Amazon to read the blurb and maybe buy it. Bonus for me – I already own it!!!!
Duke in Shining Armor for sure!
Yes to everyone above; I was so psyched that I actually knew this one, but everyone is already on top of it. I love all the SBs here!
