MARRIAGE TO A NOBLEMAN? NOT IN HER WILDEST DREAMS. . .
The daughter of a disgraced woman and a common actor, Madelyn Swann has been shunned by the nobility. No proper lady would traipse about on a Covent Garden stage, let alone sell herself at auction to the highest bidder. So why in heavenโs name would Nathan Atwood, Viscount Rowley, make a generous offer for her hand?
Turns out Maddy is exactly the type of woman Nathan wants as his wife. Finally, he can embarrass his snobbish and cruel father, the Earl of Gilmoreโand scandalize London societyโwith his beautiful, unsuitable bride. Then heโll depart England forever and leave his wife behind. Having secret plans of her own, Maddy is happy to play the role โฆ only to find that enjoying her husbandโs seduction requires no acting whatsoever. But as she falls madly in love with Nathan, can she persuade him to stay with her for always?
