Regency Matchmaker Book 4
A widow who has sworn off men. A lord who’s finished with women. So why can’t they keep their hands off each other?
A deathbed wish from a beloved relative sends Lord Drake Stowe to Lady Ambrosia with a unique request – a short-term fiancée. When Lady Ambrosia suggests her assistant, Amy, would be the perfect choice for the temporary charade, Amy is less than pleased. Drake, in dire straits, has little choice but to agree.
When circumstances change, the unlikely couple finds themselves married. Will they be able to stick to their bargain?
Publisher’s Note: This steamy historical romance contains elements of power exchange.
My Review:
This book is very different to most of what I read in these styles; either the historical or the elements of power exchange. There’s a sense of whimsy in this story that I absolutely delighted in. Amy and Drake are very down-to-earth, grounded, people, yet nearly everyone else around them were completely outlandish and left me giggling uncontrollably. I especially liked reading the messages in this story about the sacrifices we make for love and that the right partner can make all the difference in the world. I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book through Booksprout.
