Synopsis

Rose Warren and Simon Trumbull may have been betrothed since birth, but that doesn't mean they have to like each other. Rose is sure the notorious playboy Simon will never willingly settle down, and Simon, well . . . he agrees. Never one to be forced into anything, he'd rather drink and gamble with his mates than spend time with the bookish, bespectacled Rose.

When the two are thrown together to investigate a potential poisoning mystery, neither expects the sparks that fly. Simon discovers that Rose is, in fact, a brilliant sleuth and—even better—hides a delectable body beneath her flowing skirts. Suddenly, falling into bed may be the best idea either has heard, but can Simon convince Rose his romancing is forever?

Contains mature themes.

OMFG honestly didn't think I would like this book for the fact that I thought it would have a silly vapid lead female character and a sleezy in love male lead but it certainly surprised me!! Rose is the lead female character and unlike most 19th century novels she isn't a vapid swooning twit!! She ha......more

Goodreads review by Emily on October 04, 2013

Learning at a young age that he was betrothed to a young girl, Simon Trumbell did his best to act the part of holy terror and rake as he grew up.
