Becoming engaged? Simple.
Resisting temptation? Impossible
Sebastian Fennick, the newest Duke
of Wrexford, prefers the straightforwardness of mathematics to romantic
nonsense. When he meets Lady Katherine Adderly at the first ball of the season,
he finds her as alluring as she is disagreeable. His title may now require him
to marry, but Sebastian can’t think of anyone less fit to be his wife, even if
he can’t get her out of his mind.
After five seasons of snubbing
suitors and making small talk, Lady Kitty has seen all the ton has to offer…and
she’s not impressed. But when Kitty’s overbearing father demands she must marry
before her beloved younger sister can, she proposes a plan to the handsome
duke. Kitty’s schemes always seem to backfire, but she knows this one can’t go
wrong. After all, she’s not the least bit tempted by Sebastian, is she?

Excerpt
Chapter 2
Cambridgeshire, May, 1891
Slashing the air
with a sword was doing nothing to improve Sebastian Fennick’s mood. As he
thrust, the needle-thin foil bending and arching through the air and sending
tingling reverberations along his hand, he glared across at his opponent,
though he doubted she could see any better than he could from behind the tight
mesh of her fencing mask.
His sister
parried before offering a spot-on riposte of her own, her foil bowing in a
perfect semicircle as she struck him.
“Are you making
any sort of effort at all?”
About
the Author:
Fueled by Pacific Northwest
coffee and inspired by multiple viewings of every British costume drama she can
get her hands on, Christy Carlyle writes sensual historical romance set in the
Victorian era. She loves heroes who struggle against all odds and heroines who
are ahead of their time. A former teacher with a degree in history, she finds
there’s nothing better than being able to combine her love of the past with a
die-hard belief in happy endings.
