About this book:
“After his departure from New York two years ago to meet up with his almost-fiancee, Zayne Beckett is the last person Agatha Watson wanted to stumble upon in her travels as a reporter with the New York Tribune. Quite pathetically bedraggled, he clearly needs to be taken in hand and sent back East to his family. Although she no longer has feelings for him, Agatha realizes--by hook or by crook--she'll have to be the one to get the obstinate man home.
Zayne has no desire to be taken anywhere and is prepared to drag his heels all the way home . . . until he finds himself slipping back into the familiar banter of his former friendship with Agatha. Once they arrive in New York, Zayne realizes Agatha's determined nose for news has earned her a few enemies, and he hopes to repay her help with some help of his own. When she rebuffs all his attempts to prove himself a knight in shining armor, the lengths to which they'll go to win this battle of wills lead to some memorable antics.
Everyone else may think them a match, but nothing could be further from the truth--until Agatha finds herself in real trouble. Have these two stubborn, too-smart-for-their-own-good people been meant for each other all along?”
Series: Book 4 in the “Ladies of Distinction” series {The novella prologue, “Gentleman of Her Dreams”, review Here!; Book #1, “A Change of Fortune”, Here!; Book #2, “A Most Peculiar Circumstance”, Here! and Book #3, “A Talent for Trouble”, Here! {I would recommend reading this series in order.}}

personal Rating-

When I read book #1, “A Change of Fortune”, I couldn’t wait
to read about Agatha’s and her wit. I really enjoy “A Match of Wits” and laughed-out-loud many times {Not as much as “A Change of Fortune” but much more than
number 3 “A Talent for Trouble”}
Plus, Charlotte from the series’ prologue, “Gentleman of Her Dreams”, was in this one! Agatha
also had a hilarious pet P-I-G named Matilda!
See y'all on Sunday with a big, fun surprise!
