Description
A meddling matchmaker finds an irresistible match of her own in the USA Today bestselling author's "funny and clever" Regency romance (SmartBitchesTrashyBooks.com).
Two possible futures loom before Miss Anne Davenport. She will either share an unhappy home with her father and soon-to-be stepmother-or enjoy a life of independence at the Spinster House. She only needs the current resident marry and vacate the premises. A well-placed whisper about her and the Duke of Hart might speed the course to matrimony. But the duke's stubborn cousin poses an obstacle. A ridiculously handsome, very persuasive obstacle . . .
Nate, Marquess of Haywood, has spent his life looking out for the duke, hoping to stave off a family curse. The only way to keep his cousin alive is to keep him single. That means convincing the intriguing Miss Davenport that her lovely lips could be put to far better use than gossiping. Kissing, for instance. In fact, Nate is beginning to hope that Miss Davenport's destiny lies not in the Spinster House at all, but with him . . .
