About this ebook
A high society, fake relationship Regency romance
The clock’s ticking…
on their risky charade!
Louisa must convince her grandfather she’s going to wed if she’s to receive her inheritance and escape his tyranny! But the wallflower is a disaster debutante, and she’s given up hope of finding a suitor. Until her brother’s best friend, Thomas, Duke of Bonham, agrees to an engagement ruse…
Playing the part of Louisa’s fiancé is a welcome distraction from his ducal burden, and a chance to help the woman Thomas always viewed as a sister. Except, after a stolen kiss, his feelings for her are anything but brotherly, making it harder to pull away when their game is up…

To secure her inheritance and escape her domineering grandfather, wallflower Louisa needs a fiancé—fast. Her brother’s best friend, the Duke of Bonham, agrees to a fake engagement. But when their feelings turn real, both must decide whether to risk their hearts for a future together. This romance will appeal to readers who enjoy a story with a strong villain. I like the way Louisa grows and gains confidence during the course of the novel. Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC.
