After offending yet another Very Important Marquess—and imperiling her father’s diplomatic career—Ruby flees London for the holiday house of a glamorous (and better yet, absent) princess. Armed with a forged invitation and accompanied by her like-minded friends, Ruby arrives at the Cornwall estate expecting a summer of blissful freedom.Instead, she discovers a derelict mansion and the most suspiciously charming man she’s ever met.Former privateer and current con artist Captain Malcolm Archer has dragged his ramshackle crew into a new life. Posing as staff at a princess’s abandoned estate provides the perfect cover for Archer’s smuggling scheme (not to mention free rent). Everything’s going according to plan—until an unorthodox London heiress crashes the party.But when Archer and his crew attempt to frighten off their uninvited guests, Ruby’s unfazed by insect invasions and sham sea monsters. Harder to ignore? The scorching heat between the rakish pirate and the debutante who can see right through him. As sparks fly, deceptions run wild—because in this Great Cornish Fake Off, the only thing riskier than telling the truth is falling in love.Alexandra Vasti is a British literature professor by day and USA Today bestselling romance writer by night. After finishing her PhD at Columbia University, she moved to New Orleans with her family. Her books have received starred reviews from Publisher's Weekly, Booklist, Library Journal, BookPage, and Kirkus, and have been featured in The New York Times, NPR, Entertainment Weekly, People, and elsewhere.Laura Piper Lee has wanted to be an author since she was a kid. She enjoys making people laugh, flirting, and avoiding exercise, so writing romantic comedies likeZoe Brennan, First Crush andHannah Tate, Beyond Repair is pretty much a perfect career choice. She lives with her partner and their son in Philadelphia. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/washington/hybrid-event-scandal-of-the-summer-alexandra-vasti/100001985480605940 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, workshops, virtual, webinar, parties, comedy, entertainment, holiday - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 1 hour - Location: East City Bookshop - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 29.99, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Washington - **state**: DC - **country**: United States - **location**: East City Bookshop - **lat**: 38.88456060000001 - **long**: -76.9968836 - **full address**: East City Bookshop, 645 Pennsylvania Avenue Southeast, Washington, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Hybrid Event: Scandal of the Summer, Alexandra Vasti - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/2f180cae354396fbf078967990483b74c32019237cb74f47c0b0b861847f3d4a-rimg-w1200-h600-dce36139-gmir.jpg?v=1778328970 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Hybrid Event: Scandal of the Summer, Alexandra Vasti being held? - **A:** Hybrid Event: Scandal of the Summer, Alexandra Vasti takes place on Fri, 26 Jun, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Fri, 26 Jun, 2026 at 08:00 pm at East City Bookshop, 645 Pennsylvania Avenue Southeast, Washington, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Hybrid Event: Scandal of the Summer, Alexandra Vasti? - **A:** Hybrid Event: Scandal of the Summer, Alexandra Vasti is organized by East City Bookshop. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
