Finding the perfect bride-to-be isn’t Viscount Linscott’s intention; he only needs a match to satisfy the demands of the man holding his income hostage.

She doubts her ability to attract a single suitor, but as the season progresses, she may have to turn away two. A stolen kiss on a terrace and she is bargaining for more than she can handle. If she listens to her aunt’s advice, she would marry a stodgy old goat, but she pines for the worst sort of rake whose lips make her head swirl.Faced with impossibly high stakes, Annabelle and Jack must abandon entrenched preconceptions to embrace the promise of true love. less
