Synopsis

***THE SWOONIEST, FUNNIEST REGENCY ROMANCE OF THE SEASON, PERFECT FOR FANS OF BRIDGERTON***

A USA TODAY BESTSELLER

Featured in Entertainment Weekly, New York Times, Good Housekeeping, Red, Oprah Daily, and more...

STRATAGEM FOR THE RESTORATION OF RESPECTABILITY TO THE DUKE OF STANHOPE:

Step 1: Find perfect wife
Step 2: Save reputation from ruin
Step 3: Do not, at any cost, fall in love with Selina Ravenscroft

Peter Kent, newly inherited Duke of Stanhope, has developed quite the scandalous reputation - which must be overturned if he is to win the guardianship of his young half siblings.

For help he turns to Lady Selina Ravenscroft, society's most proper debutante (save one tiny secret...). She suggests courtship and marriage to a lady of unimpeachable character - which due to the aforementioned secret is definitely not Selina herself.

But her matchmaking goes awry when the scorching chemistry between them proves impossible to resist. For the disreputable duke and his unpredictable matchmaker, falling in love might just be the ultimate scandal...

'Steamy and witty' Red
'A gem ... dazzling banter' New York Times
'Brimming with heart' Good Housekeeping
