Caught by Surprise by Jen Turano

About the Book
Miss Temperance Flowerdew is on her way to work when a stranger suddenly grabs her off the street and sends her on a Chicago-bound train before she can figure out what happened.
When Mr. Gilbert Cavendish is called upon to rescue a missing woman, he follows the trail to Chicago only to discover that the woman is his good friend Temperance. Before they can discover who was behind the abduction, they're seen alone together by a New York society matron, putting their reputations at risk.

Gilbert is willing to propose marriage--except Temperance will have none of it. She's finally stepped out of the shadow of her relations and won't give up her independence. But when it becomes clear the misunderstanding in Chicago has escalated into a threat on her life and followed her to New York, accepting Gilbert's help in solving the mystery may lead to more than she ever could have dreamed.

My Thoughts
A wonderful conclusion to a great series! Full of Turano's trademark humor and quirky characters this book had me laughing out loud several times. Gilbert and Temperance were fun together and I enjoyed watching their story play out! The banter was entertaining and the antics of the characters were just the sort of hi-jinks you would expect from Turano! I was sad to see the series end but ready for what the author has next!
