About this ebook

Bridgerton meets 10 Things I Hate About You in this spicy enemies-to-lovers Regency romance from a "must-read author" (Jodi Picoult, #1 New York Times bestselling author). 

Lady Evangeline Raine prefers animals to people and has no interest in marriage­--much to the dismay of her flirty younger sister, Viola. Because their father has one rule: Viola may be courted, only if Effie has a suitor as well.

Saddled with debt, Gage Croft, Duke of Vale, is determined to rebuild his estates. When the owner of his vowels offers him a fortune to charm the impervious Lady Evangeline for the season so Lady Viola can be courted, the game is on, even if it means pretending to seduce an unconventional wallflower.

But Gage gets much more than he bargains for in an adversary who wants to make her own scandalous arrangement. Effie will go to London for the season, but only if Gage agrees to be her lover. Yet when their fake courtship leads to passionate feelings, will their indecent proposal end with the season or be the start of something real?

Wondrously complex romance! What starts out as a simple retelling of The Taming of the Shrew quickly expands into a fascinating tale of justice and vengeance with a delightfully unexpected romance in addition to the searing hot dynamics between our two main characters, Gage and Evangeline. Gage has been backed into a corner by Huntington, who requires that Gage woo Evangeline so that Huntington can pursue her younger sister, Viola. The history between Huntington and Gage's family is compelling and has a surprisingly satisfying conclusion, while Viola quietly finds her own happiness almost in spite of everyone around her trying to keep her where they feel she belongs. I adored the focus on animal shelters in the Victorian era, and I loved the way Evangeline fearlessly stood up for her principles. The secrets and hidden motives do not overwhelm the romance, which is delightfully paced and heartwarming throughout. The HEA is wonderful and I highly recommend this story for anyone who enjoys historical romances. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

I loved it! Another homerun for this utterly delightful series. Evangeline and Gage's story is funny, emotional, dramatic, poignant, spicy and filled with heart. This book gave my heart a solid workout and left it feeling much lighter when I was done.
