An Improbable Season - Unexpected Seasons (Paperback)
Rosalyn Eves (author)Published: 12/10/2023
For fans of Bridgerton, An Improbable Season is a swoony Regency romance by Rosalyn Eves about three young women, their big dreams, and a London Season gone awry.
When Thalia, Kalliope, and Charis set off to Regency London for their first Season, they each have clear goals — few of which include matrimony. Thalia means to make her mark among the intelligentsia and publish her poetry, Charis hopes to earn her place among the scientific elite, and Kalliope aims to take the fashionable ton by storm. But this Season, it doesn't take long for things to fall apart. . .
Kalli finds herself embroiled in scandal and reliant upon an arranged marriage to redeem her reputation, Thalia's dreams of publication are threatened by her attraction to a charming rake, and Charis finds herself an unexpected social hit – and the source of a family scandal that her heart might not survive. Can this roller-coaster Season find its happily ever after?

MEDIA REVIEWS
If you’re looking for your next Bridgerton-esque fix, it’s all too probable you’ll find An Improbable Season as utterly charming as I did. - Jennieke Cohen, author of My Fine Fellow and Dangerous Alliance
I adored every page. It was a Little Women meets Pride and Prejudice romance that charmed and entertained me thoroughly. - Kasie West, author of Sunkissed
Alternating third-person narration highlights the [three] young people’s personal loves —Thalia’s for poetry, Kalli’s of home and hearth, Charis’ of the natural world — and their dreams for the future. . . Regency fans will enjoy this comfortingly familiar feeling story of endearing young women chasing happy endings through a maze of societal rules. - Kirkus Reviews
An Improbable Season will delight fans of regency novels, containing just enough twists and turns to keep the familiar beats and tropes exciting. Eves pens compelling romantic moments, but the real strength of this novel is the depiction of the strong love the young women have for each other. - Booklist

“Three regency romances for the price of one”
Intertwining three regency romances, this book had a lot to juggle. While I enjoyed the majority of the storylines, I wish less focus was given to those that I found to be unsympathetic.
Would I recommend?… Yes, if...
