This HaBO request comes from Ciri, who is searching for a regency romance:
This is driving me crazy. There’s a book, and it’s a regency, and there’s a trio of sisters, I think. It’s always three sisters, isn’t it? Well, the unmarried sisters go to visit their married sister, who they think was ignoring them or something but actually she’s in a controlling relationship where the dude’s an abusive jerkface, but abusive jerkface husband ends up dying, possibly murdered.
Instead of reporting this, they cover it up so the sisters can have their coming out and find themselves husbands. I think. But then the dead guy’s twin(?) brother shows up and things get complicated. Or something? What I know is that there’s more than one book in the series, and the books tell the same plot from the perspective of each couple. And at least one book has one of the heroines traipsing about barefoot because freedom from horrible husband.
I think there’s a funny scene at the end where everyone lies in wait for the murderer and I mean everyone, hiding in all sorts of strange places. I could be mixing up books, though.
This is giving me some heavy Clue vibes for some reason. Do you know this one?
