A SCOUNDREL IN THE MAKING
Retired spy Abigail Matheson has inherited the title of Marchioness of Buchman upon the death of her cousin. The title, which her cousin inherited from her father, should never have been hers. But that annoyance is forgotten when The Raven, Abigail’s superior, introduces her to Sir Stirling James. They request her assistance on one final mission: find the stolen crown jewels of Scotland.Lord Reade, brother to Robert Murdock, the Earl of Kinwall, has been given the opportunity to gamble with men who can afford to lose a lot of money. And a lot of money is exactly what Reade needs if he is to save his family’s ancestral home from creditors and prevent his brother’s family from being forced onto the streets. The catch: he must work with a beautiful spy to find the thief who stole the Honors of Scotland. Surely, he can ignore her long enough to salvage his family’s fortune. The string of suitors determined to be the next Marquess of Buchman prove too much a distraction, however, and Reade is forced to take matters into his own hands.

HER WICKED HIGHLAND SPY
As a spy in His Majesty's Service, Ethan Brodie possesses an unrivaled ability to charm himself out of any situation, and under many a petticoat. Upon his mentor's death, he retires from the service and promises to settle down to the business of finding a wife. Having lived his life on the edge of danger, he soon loses interest in dancing and grows bored with the season's debutantes. After all, with three younger brothers to insure the Clan Brodie line of succession, he feels no pressure to marry and, instead, seeks out the dangers and risks of hot-air balloons.To help out a friend, Ethan agrees to escort his mentor's widow and her niece, Rosalyn Beaumont, on a seaside holiday. After all, he owes his life to the man many times over. But the more time he spends with Rosalyn, the more her prying ways capture his attention.

MY LADY OF DANGER
Forced into the role of heir by the sudden death of his older brother, Alasdair Lochgeal is robbed of his one passion, serving the Crown. Equally at home in the catacombs of Paris, the portside alleys of Lisbon or on the dark canals of Venice, his family’s wish for him to marry leaves him bereft in the ballrooms of Inverness. What does a man trained in dealing death know of white-gloved misses? When Sir Stirling James appears with a final mission, simple though it seems, Alasdair can’t pass up the opportunity, little knowing one white-gloved Scottish miss might end his career for good.

THE MARRIGE OBLIGATION
At eighteen years old, Cornelia Hardcastle discovered an ugly family secret that could ruin her family. There is only one way to ensure the world doesn’t learn the truth: never marry. Now that she's twenty-four, however, her parents have put their foot down. She must marry. The second son of a viscount, Preston Warrington is happy to leave the viscount business to his brother so he can travel the world in search of adventure. To his shock, he returns home from his service to the Crown as a spy to find his family has decreed that he marry. The notorious Marriage Maker suggests these two marriage-averse individuals are perfect for each other. Shock sets in—then they realize the genius of his suggestion. Little do their families know their whirlwind romance is a sham, and their marriage is in name only.

4.0 out of 5 stars A SCOUNDREL IN THE MAKING ~ HER WICKED HIGHLAND SPY ~ MY LADY OF DANGER ~ THE MARRIAGE OBLIGATION
Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2020
THE MARRIAGE MAKER GOES UNDERCOVER is a four book mini-series that has Lady Elana aka The Raven (a master spy) enlisting the help of her longtime friend, Sir Stirling James (aka The Marriage Maker) in finding love for four retired spies... With that being said each of these stories can easily standalone but especially Ms. Hanford's, which is the only one where Lady Elana doesn't make an appearance. Sir Stirling (our matchmaker) does appear in each story (however briefly) making these books 9-12 in "The Marriage Maker" series overall.

Wanted: Gentleman turned rogue...

I really enjoyed this story which was fast paced and never boring. There was always something going on and I liked that Abigail was such a mature, capable, and independent woman too. Reade on the other hand was her perfect counterpart as well as being an oh-so-handsome and charming rogue. I thought they had great chemistry and that their one love scene was very sensual as well. However, it took these two much too long to really connect as the story seemed to focus more on Abigail's many overzealous suitors and the mystery of the missing Crown Jewels rather than any actual romance. Still, I thought they made a wonderful (as well as formidable) couple and that the mystery and intrigue were well executed. All in all it was a very enjoyable tale and one I'm glad I read.

He served his country well. Now it's time to play...

Even though this story was rather short, even in terms of a novella, I honestly still really enjoyed it and was tempted to give it five stars. The only reason I didn't was because I felt like the romance moved along a bit too fast and the fact that Ethan thinks about his mistress (although he does nothing with her and she never even makes an appearance) a few too many times for my comfort. Other than that which did irritate me, I still loved him though and I absolutely adored Rosalyn. Their love story was a mix of passion and tenderness and includes a couple of sex scenes near the end which are pretty darn steamy too. It was also decently edited with minimal typos which was a nice change from the last mini-series where they abounded. Overall I have to say I'm really glad I read this story and I was genuinely sad to see it end.

In the world of spies, even love is suspect...

This novella was an action packed and charming little read that I throughly enjoyed. It was the only story in the mini-series that didn't include Lady Elana though, which I found odd. And unlike the previous two books, this one is a clean read which also made it feel different. Even so, I thought Bridget and Alisdair were entirely lovable and and that they made an adorable couple. I literally laughed out loud a couple times and was just entertained from start to finish by their story. With that being said though I was disappointed that there wasn't more of a focus on the romance which seemed to take a backseat to the action and mystery. The villain came as a complete surprise however which was a nice change, since usually have that part figured out. In the end I was impressed with Ms. Hanford's writing though which was both witty and a ton of fun to read.

THE MARRIAGE OBLIGATION by Susana Ellis - 3 STARS
The Marriage Maker Goes Undercover Book 4 of 4: The Marriage Maker Series #12
Confirmed spinster meets British spy. What could possibly go wrong?

This was one of those stories that started out really well but by the halfway point had a hard time holding my attention. It was somewhat disjointed and as the story progressed I also found the pacing really weird. Honestly, the timeframe for this novella jumped all over the dang place. As for Cornelia and Preston, I thought they were both truly lovable and kind individuals. I didn't sense any real chemistry between them however, and instead felt they made better friends than anything. And other than a few kisses near the end there is virtually no passion and little romance. Overall I'm sorry to say that this story failed to ever tug at my emotions and then there's the ending which was strangely abrupt and felt incomplete. Frankly the characters are what saved it for me, but I'm not sure I'll read more by this author as her writing just didn't seem to flow well.
