Synopsis

He vows to never risk his heart again. She hides her love to avoid rejection. A marriage of convenience is not what either of them wished for.

Overlooked by society and underappreciated in her family, Ellen Bringhurst has resigned herself to spinsterhood and a life of reading. Until her match-making friends contrive to reintroduce Ellen to the man she has secretly loved since their shared childhood.

As the younger son to an earl, Marcus Calvert must wed in order to inherit his estate. Still nursing a broken heart, he prefers a practical approach to matrimony rather than romantic love. When Ellen is presented as a possible bride, he proposes a marriage of convenience.

Ellen accepts his hand, hiding her feelings rather than risking her husband's rejection. Marcus, though determined not to expose his heart again, finds more to admire in his childhood friend with each passing day. What began as a sensible arrangement now has the possibility to become so much more. But is Marcus willing to risk his heart a second time?

This is third in a series, but I could see no trace of the others in this one. I looked because there are a couple young(ish) couples that felt like leftovers from other stories but if they are, it isn't this series.

Pleasant read I bought this on accident but it was a very sweet romance. I loved the heroine and her love for her husband. I really liked the H too. He was an honorable man but I agreed with his wife that he flirted way too much. She didn't believe him sincere when he complimented her. There is a kis......more

This was a delightful sweet romance! In a word: adorable! I loved how Marcus slowly, step by step, fell in love with his wife, Ellen. After offering her a marriage of convenience−quite rational-minded-Marcus comes to realize that he might not be able to do without love after all. I loved how he slow......more
