About this ebook
Polite society has its rules for marriage. But for Ella Quinn’s eligible bachelors, their brides will show them that rules are for the faint of heart . . .
Phoebe Stanhope is not a typical Lady. As feisty as she is quick witted, no one can catch her, especially when she is driving her dashing phaeton with its perfectly matched horses. And unlike her peers, experience has guarded her against a growing list of would-be suitors. But when she encounters Marcus Finley, what she fears most burns deep within his blue-eyed gaze . . .
For Lord Marcus, the spark of recognition is but a moment in the love he has held these many years. Now that he’s returned to England, all the happiness he desires rests on Lady Phoebe never finding out that he was the one who turned her heart so cold and distant. He must work fast to gain the advantage—to convince her what she wants is exactly what she denies—but in order to seduce her into his arms, he must be willing to give up more than he can control . . .
“Lady Phoebe is a heroine Georgette Heyer would adore—plucky, pretty, and well worth the devotion of the dashing Lord Marcus. A marvelous find for Regency romance readers.”
—Grace Burrowes, New York Times bestselling author

A story of a young attraction quickly gone awry as the hero becomes inebriated and confesses his love to the heroine. Unfortunately he gets a bloody nose for his treatment of her! Eight years later, Lord Marcus is back from his banishment from the West Indies, after being called home due to his brother dying which makes him next in line for the Earldom. He is a changed man from the callus youth he was before and he has never forgotten Lady Phoebe Stanhope. He just hopes she does not recognize him as the youth that got the bloody nose! He still loves her and hopes to win her hand. Phoebe at first does not recognize him and they become close as they spend time together. Unfortunately, a villain turns up that holds a grudge against Marcus and is determined to extract his revenge and he and Phoebe get caught up in the middle. A satisfying romance, filled with a feisty heroine, sigh worthy hero, suspense, drama and wonderful characters that will take you on the journey to a happy ever after.
