Synopsis

The Dowager Lady Worthington isn't quite sure what to make of country-girl Dorothea Stern. As the granddaughter of the Duke of Bristol, Dotty is schooled in the ways and means of the nobility. But her sharp wit and outspoken nature has everyone in a tizzy. Especially their cousin, Dominic, the Marquis of Merton.

Prematurely stuffy, Dom was raised by his cheerless uncle to be wary of a host of things, including innovation, waltzing, and most perilous of all: true love. Still, there's something about Dotty, beyond her beauty, that Dom cannot resist. But the odds are against him if he intends to win her as his bride. Will he choose loyalty to his family—or risk everything for the one woman he believes is his perfect match?

Contains mature themes.

Goodreads review by Sarah on July 04, 2019

This is the second book in the Worthingtons series and I have to admit I wasn't too sure I'd like it when I found out that Marcus's stuffy and pompous cousin Dom was going to be the hero. I wasn't at all likeable in the first book so I was a bit wary going in but happily he's a totally different man......more

Goodreads review by Tracy on July 21, 2016

**I received an eARC of this book from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review** I loved this book, it was a perfectly delightful read. Dom is the Marquis of Merton, he is totally uptight, consumed by his social status and dead set on finding a "proper" wife. We first met Dom in t......more

Goodreads review by Sandy Kay on August 22, 2016

This is the second book in the Worthingtons series and I have not read the first one. I think this book is enjoyable even without having read the first one, but you may want to read them in order so you have more background on the characters. Despite this book being in the series, neither the hero no......more
