An opposites attract, fake relationship Regency romance

Her enemy next door…

The dashing and eligible earl!

Inheriting a cottage near Brighton means penniless spinster Miss Kate Summerby can finally escape her patronizing sister’s household. Her new home is idyllic, save for the raucous all-night parties hosted by her new neighbor, Daniel, the Earl of Rivington!

As hostility builds, Kate becomes ostracized as the local Society set sides with Dan! So when he offers her a fake courtship to get back into the ton’s good graces, his generosity shocks her. Has she judged him too swiftly? Is there more behind his wild reputation? But starting to warm to Dan is far too dangerous for her carefully protected heart… 

From Harlequin Historical: Your romantic escape to the past.
