One Night Scandal

Christie Kelley. Kensington/Zebra, $6.99 mass market (352p) ISBN 978-1-4201-0878-1

Sophie Reynard's ability to see into the future makes her the perfect matchmaker. This talent has given her a way into 19th-century London society, even though she's an earl's unrecognized bastard daughter. However, when Sophie tries to find her own true love, all she sees is black. Without supernatural guidance, can she trust her attraction to Lord Nicholas Ancroft after he saves her from drowning in a Venice canal? As their mutual friends plot to bring them together, Sophie believes she must resist her own feelings and find a more socially appropriate match for Nicholas. Kelley (Something Scandalous) tosses in a little bit of everything: the supernatural, a dash of glamour, and multiple layers of scandal and scheming. Sophie's obstinacy makes her a strong (though sometimes frustrating) heroine, and readers will stick with her to the end. (June)
