About this ebook

The death of a friend leads the cautious Eleanor Spencer to reevaluate her life. In a rare impulse, she kisses the man of her dreams—her best friend’s older brother. The moment of madness gives her courage to take more chances. This spring, she will finally travel to London for the social season. All she needs is to compile a list of adventures to complete. At the top of her list? Kiss Lucius Grisham again…

Barely surviving since his father severed his funds, Lucius Grisham works two respectable jobs, and one decidedly disreputable job, just to keep up critical appearances. When Ellie becomes the target of a sordid bet made by his rakehell friends, Lucius must step in to protect his sister’s friend. As he finds himself pulled into helping Ellie with her list of adventures, he is surprised to find his jaded heart tempted by the innocent beauty. But Ellie Spencer is far too good for a scoundrel like him.

Ellie will endanger both her heart and her virtue to make Lucius hers. Can Lucius become the man Ellie believes him to be?

Ellie wants more than a quiet country life. Hired by a friend to be her companion, Ellie gets a chance at a London season. She pines for Lucius, her best friend's brother. But his father has cut him off, and he's taken a disreputable job to cover his expenses. He knows he's not good enough for sweet Ellie. Can she convince him otherwise? This is a well-written story for readers who enjoy the reformed rake trope. Thanks, Booksprout, for the ARC. This is my honest and voluntary review

Ellie has been in love with her friend’s brother since forever. She also has been stuck in her small village to scare to branch off and have an adventure. Lucius on the other hand is drifting with no real purpose. Now with a chance to go to London for a season Ellie has gotten her chance at an adventure. The book touches also on Olivia and what her future might be. The book opened up at a very sad event for Olivia. I enjoyed the book and I liked Ellie’s list was fun to read

Modern Relatable Characters, Bookshops, Mysterious Romance, Hard working Men, No nonsense women…. Ellie is a capable woman with a no-nonsense attitude. She’s practical and spirted in a quiet way but entirely done with waiting for what she wants! Lucius has been doing what he can to survive not being supported by his family any longer. He is working hard to become an admirable self-made man. He is such a relatable modern character who keeps Ellie on her toes.
