Marry in Haste (Historical Regency Romances #1)
Christina Courtenay
Spirited Amelia is the penniless granddaughter of the Marquess of Ravenscroft, living a life of drudgery in her cruel aunt’s house and fighting off the advances of a lecherous cousin. She’s desperate to find a way out.
James, Viscount Demarr, has a scandalous past. Finding a wife is proving difficult, but if he’s to inherit his fortune, he needs one and to produce an heir — fast.
Amelia makes the roguish viscount an offer he can’t refuse. A marriage of convenience means they both get what they want.
But their cunning plan doesn’t include falling in love.
They’re better suited to each other than either could have imagined. But while Amelia’s losing her heart to him, he begins to fear she’s too good to be true . . .
The more she burns for him the colder he becomes . . . Can Amelia’s handsome viscount really feel nothing at all for her, or does his own passion blaze beneath the frozen exterior?
This escapist Regency romance will be devoured by fans of Bridgerton, Georgette Heyer, Beverley Watts or Emma Melbourne.
