The Story

A notorious rake. A bluestocking with bite. The wrong sister he can’t resist.
A witty, sensual Regency Romance from Best Selling Author Emma V Leech
Lord Percy Nibley needs a wife—preferably soon, before his mother’s relentless hints drive him to madness. Unfortunately, Percy is far more comfortable cataloguing his rock collection than attempting to flirt, and his courtship efforts are… uninspiring. For a shy Regency hero, romance is far more daunting than geology.

In desperation, he turns to the most dazzling man in London: August Bright, the Baron Marchmain. Charming, witty, and heartbreakingly handsome, August can win over an entire ballroom with a single smile. If anyone can help Percy navigate Regency courtship, it is London’s most irresistible rake.

August selects the perfect candidate: Miss Patience Pearson, a sensible, steady bluestocking heroine who is perilously close to the shelf. Meanwhile, he sets his own sights on her lively younger sister, Caroline. But Patience guards her sister like a lioness, and August must deploy every ounce of his devastating charm just to get near her.

Which is when the trouble begins.
Because once Patience finally lowers her defences… August starts to realise he may have chosen the wrong sister entirely. And nothing complicates a Regency romance quite like a rake undone by the woman he never meant to want.
