Book Synopsis
They have just one rule: don't fall in loveForced into an engagement to save her destitute family, Lady Theodosia (Theo) Beaumont gives up her dreams of romance and a husband with all his teeth. Thankfully, her friend Nathanial Hardinge proposes a solution: a marriage of convenience. He's no romantic, but he'll grant her freedom, an alarmingly handsome husband, and the title of duchess.
All she has to do is not fall for him.
To Nathanial, marrying Theo makes sense. They've agreed not to let emotions complicate matters; his life can continue the way it always has. There's just one problem-now she's in the picture, his old life no longer appeals.
When his cousin and heir attempts to woo Theo and destroy the marriage, Nathanial sets out to save her, and learns there is nothing convenient about marriage, love, or desire. And Theo finds that her husband might have more than just his teeth-he also has her heart.
Review Quotes
"This is no simple Regency bodice-ripper romp- there is intrigue from an almost Shakespearean villainous pair and a slow burn romance as the couple slowly start to explore their feelings beyond their childhood japes."
"This was a thoroughly charming story filled with wonderfully delightful characters. It captured my attention right from the start. The characters were nicely developed and there was no question as to how strong their chemistry was. I enjoyed the build-up of the romance between Nate and Theo - they were so perfect together. A very well-written and captivating story!"
"I adored this book, and basically read the whole thing with a big smile on my face. It has everything I love in modern regency romance. It's brilliantly witty, extremely swoony (excuse me while I fan myself), deeply romantic, and in true historical romance style even has a darkly charming villain."
"There were so many scenes that I especially loved in this regency romance! The first kiss was so precious and soft, the masquerade scene filled me with glee and the last third of the novel where Theo and Nate were on the same page emotionally and facing the following events as partners was really wonderful to see."
