The Marquess’s Unexpected Bride: Scandal, Schemes and Secrets Regency Romance (The Scandalous Hearts #2)
Cressida Blythewood, R.A. Mariana
Unfortunately, Anne’s refusal to settle has left her with a dwindling list of options, and when the scandalous Earl Eric Blackwood—famed for his roguish ways and rumored illegitimate offspring—proposes, Anne’s world is thrown into chaos. Marriage to a man of such disrepute is unthinkable, yet rejecting him could create an unforgivable rift with her powerful new brother-in-law.
Desperate to escape this perilous predicament, Anne hatches a brilliant, if not entirely foolproof, ensnare the charming Marquess Colin Ashford, Adelaide’s lifelong friend and the only man who could offer her an honorable way out. There’s just one problem—Colin has no interest in marriage, least of all with Anne, and is secretly harboring feelings for her sister.
But Anne is not one to back down from a challenge. As her schemes grow bolder and her lies more tangled, she corners Colin into a scandalous trap, claiming to be carrying his child. Now, Colin, driven by duty and torn between protecting Adelaide and facing a future with Anne, must decide if honor is worth the price of a loveless marriage.
In this sparkling drama of errors, passions are mistaken, hearts are misled, and nothing is as it seems. Anne must navigate a maze of her own making, while Colin struggles with a decision that could ruin them both—or lead to an unexpected happily ever after.
Will Anne’s carefully spun web bring her the freedom she craves, or will it ensnare her in a love she never expected?
“The Marquess’s Unexpected Bride” is a intriguing, whirlwind Regency romance filled with sharp banter, cunning schemes, and the delicious unpredictability of the human heart. It was a tale of twists, trust, and true Love mixed with deception and desire.
