Synopsis

A fake engagement and plenty of charm keep the pages turning in this delightful Regency romance which the USA Today bestselling author Julia Quinn hails as "terrific."

"I have come to ask you to kill me, my lord."

Miss Abigail Abbott desperately needs to disappear—permanently—and the only person she trusts to help her do that is Lord Stephen Wentworth, heir to the Duke of Walden. Stephen is brilliant, charming, and—when he needs to be—absolutely ruthless. So ruthless that he proposes marriage instead of "murder" to keep Abigail safe.

Stephen was smitten the instant his sister introduced him to Abigail, a woman with the dignity and determination of a duchess and the courage of a lioness. When she accepts his courtship of convenience, he also discovers she kisses like his most intimate wish come true. For Abigail, their arrangement is a sham to escape her dangerous enemies. For Stephen, it's his one chance to share a lifetime with the lady of his dreams—if only he can convince her his love is real.

Goodreads review by Marilyn on April 15, 2021

In the past I have enjoyed Grace Burrows' books. This one was a bit - tedious - and had tossed in aspects that really did not serve to enhance the story and seemed added in for some reason. The hero was limited in movement and had to use canes but that made him interesting and different. The heroine......more

Goodreads review by Brandi on April 16, 2021

I didn't think Grace Burrowes could write a novel that wasn't worth 5 stars. She always has well-developed characters, an interesting story, and beautiful prose. In this book, she maintained the prose, but everything else was lacking. Even the story was weak from the initial premiss. In this series......more

Goodreads review by Carey’s Reviews on April 21, 2021

2-2.5 Stars! Not a fan of this one. I think I missed something. I was very confused while reading this one. I’d say you COULD read it as a standalone but I wouldn’t recommend it. If you’ve read the previous books in series, the ‘Rogues to Riches’ series (this is book #6 in said series), you’d most l......more
