About This Book
When Harrison Thornwick inherits his brother's earldom, he also inherits an obligation he never wanted — a bride selected by the Prince himself. Miss Angelina Rule is everything a man could want on paper, except she has no intention of being handed off like a diplomatic treaty. What follows is a Regency romance built on the tension between duty and desire, between two people who resist their arrangement right up until the moment they can't. The stakes here aren't just matrimonial — they're about who gets to decide the shape of their own life.
Amelia Grey keeps the pages moving with sharp, playful dialogue and a light touch that never tips into farce. The novel earns its warmth gradually, letting the chemistry between Harrison and Angelina develop through genuine friction rather than instant infatuation. Readers who enjoy Regency romance with a comedic undertone and characters who outsmart the social machinery working against them will find this second entry in the Heirs' Club of Scoundrels series hits its stride confidently — with enough wit and heart to keep turning pages well past a reasonable bedtime.
