After years of abuse at the hands of her mother, Cordelia Avery knows the only way out is marriage to the perfect man. A man who will allow her all the freedom she has ever craved. And she has the perfect man picked out. The scandalous Marquess of Haversham might not be perfect to anyone else, but taking the manโs black reputation under consideration, Cordie believes sheโll enjoy all the freedom sheโs always wished for in his disreputable arms. If only she could get her heart to go along with the plan and to stop leaping whenever Lord Adonisโฆerโฆthe Earl of Clayworth is nearby. But the very proper earl is most assuredly the wrong sort for her purposes.
Brendan Reese, the Earl of Clayworth, has no intention of ever marrying again. Heโs still trying to clean up the mess his first wife left him, even years after her death. To all the world, Clayworth is the epitome of the perfect English gentleman, and he so wishes that image was the truth. But the truth, as it often can be, is ugly. After all, a perfect English gentleman would never have a traitor for a mother. And unless Clayworth can find the evidence his late wife hid, he could face the gallows himself. But a chance encounter with the reckless Cordelia Avery gives him the best lead heโs had in years to finally putting his familyโs past to rest. Unfortunately, focusing on anything other than Miss Avery seems a nearly impossible task.
