Synopsis

If you love the sparkle of Tessa Dare and the wit of Sarah MacLean, then you won’t want to miss this newest historical romance by Megan Frampton, who returns with a delicious story about a will in dispute, a four-week bargain, and a pretend engagement with romantic consequences.It only takes one moment to cause a scandal...and four weeks to live it down!Week one: Lovely, lively Octavia Holton arrives in the village, determined to claim her inheritance—the home she grew up in with her late father. Surely he meant for his daughter to have the property, and owning it means she could fix it up, sell it, and use the money to pay off her debts. But when she arrives, she discovers the house is also claimed—by one Gabriel Fallon.Week two: Gabriel claims his father won the property in a bet, but he can’t bring himself to toss Octavia out on her very delightful derrière, so he makes her a four-week bargain: Together they’ll pretend to be engaged, all the while seeking out any will, letter, or document that proves who gets the ownership.Weeks three and four: But that means togetherness...a lot of togetherness, and long days—and evenings—in each other’s company. The pair seems destined to “duke it out,” staking their claims...but it’s all too soon that they realize their rivalry might lead to something much more intimate. And suddenly four weeks seems like a long time. And yet not enough.

Megan Frampton is such a fun writer and this was very light and very fluffy. They both had claims to an old house so they made a deal to renovate it in f......more

Goodreads review by PlotTrysts on July 05, 2022

A really nice low-angst romance between a straight-laced (but secretly a little alpha) scholar and a spontaneous gambling hell owner who have a shared past. You see, Octavia's father and Gabriel's father were inveterate gamblers who constantly wagered their possessions. Once upon a time, Octavia's f......more

Goodreads review by Michelle on June 28, 2022

I received an ARC from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own. If I'm being honest, this book didn't work for me at all. I found Octavia to be brash and unlikable. Gabriel was just kind of a boring hero. Nothing happened. Their conversations were awkwar......more
