The Earl of Infamy must escort one mourning lady out of London and hide her away in the country. Should be easy. But from the moment he steps into her life things get…complicated. Not only is she far too pretty for his liking but she’s got a knack for telling him no.
"No, I don’t want to go to the country with you."
"No, I won’t share your room."
"No, I won’t marry you, I don’t care that we’ve been alone."
Is the woman daft? What lady in her positions turns down an offer liked his? He’s an earl and she’s all but ruined? Still, the more she resists, the more, he has to confess, he’s intrigued. How can he get her to say…YES.
