A KISS FOR LADY MARY is the
seventh
full novel in my
Marriage Game series. By this time, Iโve written all sorts of heroes:
Sweet, difficult, rakes, ones that have it all together, and ones that donโt. They all had
one thing in common. None of them balked at seducing the woman they loved into marriage,
or, in one case, into a real marriage. Then along came Kit Featherton. An Alpha hero who
seems to have it all together. Strong, handsome, the perfect gentleman, who refuses to
seduce his way out of a completely scandalous situation. In fact, he almost made a perfect
mess out of courting his lady.
I never make play lists, but two songs kept playing in my head, and, it seemed, on the
radio when I was in the car.
The first was
Hello, Good-by, by
The Beatles.
โYou say yes, I say no, You say stop and I say go go go, oh no, You say goodbye and I say
hello, Hello hello, I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello, Hello hello, I don't
know why you say goodbye, I say hello."
The second was
Hot Nโ Cold by
Katie Perry.
โ'Cause you're hot then you're cold. You're yes then you're no. You're in then you're out.
You're up then you're down. You're wrong when it's right. It's black and it's white.
It was then I realized that the push me-pull me sort of thing occurs all the time in
relationships, and has been happening for hundreds of years. It just makes getting my hero
and heroine to a Happily Ever After a little more challenging.
How do you like your heroes?

Ella Quinnโs bachelors do as they like and take what they want. But when the objects of
their desire are bold, beautiful women, the rules of the game always seem to changeโฆ
Handsome, charming, and heir to a powerful Viscount, Christopher "Kit" Featherton is
everything a woman could wantโexcept interested in marriage. So when he hears that someone
on his estate near the Scottish border is claiming to be his wife, Kit sets off to
investigate.
Since her parentsโ death, Lady Mary Tolliver has been hounded by her cousin, a fortune-
hunting fool after her inheritance. Refusing to settle for anything less than love, Mary
escapes to the isolated estate of rakish bachelor, Kit Featherton. Knowing he prefers
Court
to the country, she believes she will be safe. But when Kit unexpectedly returns, her
pretend marriage begins to feel seductively realโฆ
LOL, Andrea! It is interesting to see what they are going to do. Thanks for commenting!
