Kit Butler is cool, dangerous, one of London’s most infamous bachelors – marriage is the last thing on his mind. But Kit’s family has other plans. Desperate to thwart his father’s matchmaking, kit needs a bride…fast. Enter Miss Lauren Edgeworth.

A year after being abandoned at the altar, Lauren has determined that marriage is not for her. When these two fiercely independent souls meet, sparks fly – and a deal is hatched. Lauren will masquerade as Kit’s intended if he aggress to provide a passionate, adventurous unforgettable summer. When summer ends, she will break off the engagement, rendering herself unmarriageable and leaving them both free.

But how can he convince Lauren to be his, for better, for worse, for the rest of their lives?

Comments on book:

A good read but nothing spectacular about it. Still worth it if you're a fan of Mrs Balogh's writing. Some human complexities involved that makes it a little different but otherwise predictable.

Rating: 7/10. A little too predictable for my taste.
