Logic falters, passion ignites, and one experiment proves dangerously irresistible.
A Daring and Delicious Regency Romance from Best Selling Author Emma V Leech
Minerva Butler is done with her mother’s relentless ambition. She has beauty, a generous dowry, and the freedom to choose any gentleman she pleases — which is precisely why she falls headlong for the one man who has nothing to offer but brilliance, stubbornness, and a complete lack of fortune. Inigo de Beauvoir is dazzling, infuriating, and utterly uninterested in society… until Minerva begins her quiet, devastating campaign to win his attention.

Inigo lives for his work. Experiments, equations, and sleepless nights in his laboratory are far safer than the chaos of human emotion. Love, in his opinion, is merely lust wrapped in poetry. But when a radiant society beauty starts challenging his theories — and his peace of mind — he finds himself dangerously distracted.

Minerva has everything to lose.
Inigo has everything to learn.
And desire, once sparked, refuses to be contained.

What begins as a flirtation becomes a liaison neither of them can control. For the first time, Inigo discovers a force more volatile than any chemical reaction: a woman who threatens his heart. And Minerva realises that falling for a man of science may be the most reckless experiment of all.
