Lady Alexandra Hobbs, the daughter of the Duke of Huntley, has intended to marry Lord Owen Monroe since she first glimpsed him from the window of her bedchamber, back when she was just a girl. But the duke has already chosen Alexβs infamously spoiled elder sister, Lavinia, for Owen. And now thereβs no turning back.
Owen has spent most of his bachelor years drinking, gambling, and skirt-chasing. He wonβt see another pound from his parents, however, until heβs engaged to Lavinia. Desperate, he accepts an offer from her innocent and spirited―and absolutely beautiful―sister Alex: She will turn him into a perfectly tamed suitor, and show him how to woo the shrew. But when Alexβs true motives come to light, will their bargain lead to recriminations―or to a romance that defies everyoneβs expectations?
Award-winning author Valerie Bowman once again delivers the romance and wit in The Untamed Earl!
