From #1 New York Times bestselling author, and creator of the Bridgerton series, Julia Quinn presents the third, stunning installment in the Bridgerton adjacent Regency era-set world featuring the romantic adventures of the well-meaning but less-than-accomplished Smythe-Smith musicians. Following a disastrous duel, a dashing mathematician and a headstrong young lady are at odds—until fate throws them together.

Hugh Prentice has never liked Lady Sarah Pleinsworth, and his opinion is confirmed when he overhears her yammering on about how she must get married this season or she will simply die. He’s never had patience for dramatic females, and the words shy and retiring have never been in Sarah’s vocabulary. Besides, even if he did grow to enjoy her company, it wouldn’t matter. A reckless duel has left this brilliant mathematician with a ruined leg, and now, unable to run, ride, or even waltz, he could never court a woman like Sarah, much less dream of marrying her.

Sarah has never forgiven Hugh for the duel he fought three years earlier, the one that forced her cousin into exile, nearly destroying her family. But even if she could find a way to forgive him, it wouldn’t matter. She doesn’t care that his leg is less than perfect, it’s his personality she can’t stand. But when the pair is forced to spend a week in close company they discover that opinions—even those firmest held—can, in fact, be altered. And when a kiss leads to two, three and four the mathematician may lose count and the miss may, for the first time, find herself speechless.

Product description

Review

“Quinn brings her signature style and wit to yet another late-Regency romance, with some character favorites fans have met before… Charmingly romantic, with compelling edges of dark conflict and sexual tension.” — Kirkus Reviews (starred review) on The Sum of All Kisses

“The third sparkling book in her Smythe-Smith quartet is quintessential Quinn: witty, whimsical, and wonderfully romantic.”  — Booklist on The Sum of All Kisses

“[A] wild romp... There’s witty banter, a colorful cast of characters and enough secrets and scandals to keep the gossip-mongers happy. A great, entertaining read.” — RT Book Reviews on The Sum of All Kisses

“[A]n unstoppable romp that sparkles with enough hilarious situations, over-the-top characters, and laugh-out-loud dialog to keep the chuckles coming long after the book is closed. A lovely tale that is just plain fun!” — Library Journal on The Sum of All Kisses

From the Back Cover

He thinks she's an annoying know-it-all

Hugh Prentice has never had patience for dramatic females, and if Lady Sarah Pleinsworth has ever been acquainted with the words shy or retiring, she's long since tossed them out the window. Besides, even if Hugh did grow to enjoy her company, it wouldn't matter. A reckless duel has left this brilliant mathematician with a ruined leg, and now, unable to run, ride, or even waltz, he could never court a woman like Sarah, much less dream of marrying her.

She thinks he's just plain mad

Sarah has never forgiven Hugh for the duel he fought three years earlier, the one that forced her cousin into exile, nearly destroying her family. But even if she could find a way to forgive him, it wouldn't matter. She doesn't care that his leg is less than perfect, it's his personality she can't abide. But when the pair is forced to spend a week in close company, they discover that first impressions are not always reliable. And when one kiss leads to two, three, and four, the mathematician may lose count, and the lady may, for the first time, find herself speechless.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

#1 New York Times bestselling author Julia Quinn loves to dispel the myth that smart women don't read (or write) romance, and in 2001 she did so in grand fashion, appearing on the game show The Weakest Link and walking away with the $79,000 jackpot. She displayed a decided lack of knowledge about baseball, country music, and plush toys, but she is proud to say that she aced all things British and literary, answered all of her history and geography questions correctly, and knew that there was a Da Vinci long before there was a code. Ms. Quinn is one of only sixteen members of Romance Writers of America's Hall of Fame, her books have been translated into 29 languages, and she currently lives with her family in the Pacific Northwest.

4 out of 5 stars only because ad poster does not match the one that arrived( I got the girl sitting solo blowing a kiss version). I seem to have a hard time collecting the other cover versions of these books(iso the ones that usally have a round stamp image on the cover advertising "also by author of the bridgertons")because often the posters being used for the ad are the wrong ones. The book arrived quickly and in perfect new condition...i just prefer the newer covers due to finding the text slightly easier to read/see compared to older copies is all... but love this series anyways. I had a suspicion it might be the wrong one because of the bit lower price and most of the alternative/publish looks Im looking for other than the bridgerton series are all coming from the UK so they tend to take longer(but not all have been...ive recieved some within a couple days)...but wasn't able to find this book locally at all so went with it regardless as I was desperate to complete the smythe series. I love all julia quinn so I am still happy to add this one to my collection:)

I liked the riposte conversations that Hugh and Sarah had when they were together - very amusing. I don't know if it was believable how fast they fell in love - became friends would be more possible considering how antagonistic they were in the beginning of the novel. I have liked this series almost as much as " The Bridgerton family series ". Great characters as usual and very well-developed - almost real.

This book had me chuckling from the first page or two. I love Julia Quinn's characters. It was a wonderful book. Only took half a star away cause I felt slowed down by the bit with his father but other than that great book!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A perfect match
Reviewed in Italy on March 9, 2024

As the third in the series, I must admit that it is my favourite, so far. I was expecting much from this and I wasn't disappointed at all. The infamous Hugh, who had been mentioned in the previous two books and also appeared in the second, finally finds his unexpected happy ending in the most unlikely of women. Because Hugh and Sarah detest each other, for different reasons. But they don't really know each other and they soon discover that their first impressions had been wrong and they really are perfectly matched. Of course, nothing can go quite that easy so there is drama and danger, also, but in the end they confess their love and can be happily together. I really loved that Hugh, undoubtedly the one that paid the highest price because of the duel, finally found his happiness and a woman who truly loved him and that also Sarah found a man capable of challenging her dramatic nature and still love her. Perfect

... drei ... Bücher des Smythe-Smith-Quartetts habe ich jetzt (nicht zum ersten Mal) gelesen, und Hughs Vater spielte immer eine gewisse Rolle. Allerdings nie in dem Ausmaß wie logischerweise in diesem. Auch wenn man sich wünschte, er würde einfach nicht mehr auftauchen, ist es doch die Frage, was er im vierten Band macht... 🤔
Manchmal bedrückend, manchmal witzig, immer lesenswert!
