Can one ball change a bluestocking’s life and mend a beast’s broken heart?
Scarred
and sarcastic, the Earl of Argyle has abandoned society, choosing to
live alone, away from Scotland in his London townhouse. But he needs an
heir. Throwing a ball to find a woman who might be able to endure being
married to someone so brutalized by war. . . He never imagined he could
find the perfect woman in Miss Rosalind Worthing. The surprisingly tart
young lady prefers hiding in the shadows, scribbling away as the ton
dances in his glittering ballroom.
But surely, a lady could never, ever love a beast like him. . .

What a lovely, lovely story. I fell totally in love with it. From the totally unpredictable, unusual first meeting of the main characters to the totally unusual ending!
Both Callum, the Earl of Argyle and Rosalind had such depth to them and were SO easy to be drawn into who there were and caring what happened to them.
Rosalind might have been forced to live a quiet life but dang, what an imaginative mind she had. And her real personality came out when she met Callum. There was boldness in her. Loved that about her. She also had kindness and understood things that had to do with pain. I loved her boldness when it came to her conditions to accepting his marriage proposal. It was outstanding!
Good thing that Rosalind understood pain because the Earl of Argyle had plenty of that. It was so well written when it came to his fear, pain and angst. It just made you want to see him get his happy ever after. Especially since he really was such a good man who had sacrificed so much.
I so enjoyed how Callum and Rosalind interacted as the story went on. Everything comes to a well earned end.
On a side note, I really would like to see what happens with Olivia. She is a cousin friend to Rosalind and does deserve her own story and happy ending.
