Synopsis

If Mary Babington-Smith knows nothing else, it's that Lord Edwin Sutton kissed her. Regardless of who-kissed-whom, with the deed witnessed, they have no choice but to carry on with a temporary, fake, engagement. When Edwin sweetens the deal, offering Mary the money she needs to pursue her independence if she can play the lovesick fiancée for two weeks, Mary rises to the challenge. In two weeks, she'll have everything she wants, and this time she'll be the one to walk out of his life.

Despite Sutton's argumentative, self-assured nature, when Mary glimpses a sliver of the boy he used to be, she vows to peel away every layer of armor he uses to shield his emotions. Somewhere underneath that worldly exterior is the kind-hearted man she once loved, but in order to find him, she'll have to give him the power to hurt her . . . and he's already broken her trust once.

Contains mature themes.

There are times Edwin has a one track mind, "his smile......more

Historical Romance? Check. Strong Feminist Character? Check. LGBTQIA influences? Check. I got all of this and much, much more in this book. It made me cheer all the way through even when I wanted to bop Mary over the head so she'd realize that she didn't need to give anything up to get what she want......more
