About this ebook

A Victorian fake relationship, high society story

Will a courtship ruse…

Lead to complete ruination?

Roguish gentleman Jameson Russell is given an ultimatum by his brother: marry or be cut off. So he hatches a foolproof plan—find a lady so entirely unsuitable to court that his brother will beg him to stay a bachelor!

Society has shunned Charity Beaumont since her broken engagement and her sister’s shameful elopement. So she accepts Jameson’s scandalous offer as a means of freedom from London’s scathing gossipmongers—on one condition: Jameson will not touch her. But that’s the trouble with a fake courtship—even the strictest rules can’t tame blazing desires…

From Harlequin Historical: Your romantic escape to the past.

The Spinster Sisterhood

About the author

Maggie is a Victorian era enthusiast. Though she grew up voraciously consuming classical literature, she stumbled upon her first romance novel at age eleven and never looked back. When she’s not writing or researching all the weird things our predecessors did, she can be found reading, taking on home improvement projects that she thinks she can handle (but can’t), and watching period dramas. Maggie lives with her husband, two dogs, horse, and innumerable houseplants in Dallas, Texas.
