About this audiobook

Clara Ward planned on starting a business. She didn't anticipate causing a scandal... Or falling in love with her unexpected husband.

When scandal threatens Clara Ward’s future—and her dream of opening a gourmet ices shop—she agrees to a practical solution: a marriage of convenience. Ellis Archibald offers protection and stability, nothing more. Love was never part of the bargain.

But as the newlyweds settle into life along Margate's shores, their sensible arrangement begins to feel far less sensible. Shared laughter, quiet moments, and growing affection blur the line between pretense and truth. With society watching and reputations at stake, Clara must decide whether she’s willing to risk her heart for a love she never planned.

A sweet, clean Victorian novella featuring a marriage of convenience, gentle humor, seaside charm, and a happily-ever-after—perfect for fans of Sarah M. Eden, Joanna Barker, and Anneka R. Walker.
