Fortunately, neither is Miss Angelica Stirling.
Lively, clever, and rather too outspoken, Angelica does not have high hopes for her first London Season… not that she particularly cares. Who needs a husband when you have a good book?
When she receives a surprise proposal from Edward Thorne, Duke of Redhaven, it seems too good to be true. And it is.
The Duke is handsome, mysterious, and brooding – and everything Angelica doesn’t want in a husband. Is one of the biggest fortunes in England really worth the trouble?
Edward returns to London after a decade’s self-imposed exile in need of one thing: a bride. But his strategy of proposing to the first agreeable-looking girl he meets backfires spectacularly. Angelica is anything but the docile debutante he took her for.
Before long, Edward is facing a predicament he never imagined. Angelica has run away from London – and she’s taken his heart with her.
