  • A wallflower by nature, Jane long ago accepted she would become a spinster. Perhaps such a fate was for the best. After all she'd witnessed firsthand how miserable marriage could make a lady. Still she dared to dream-that is until she finds herself thoroughly scandalized by a lord with the manners of a wild boar.

    After Caleb Wesley, The Earl of Keery, failed to protect the one person who'd counted on him, he embraced his role of blackguard. He holds his vices close-light skirts, gambling, and liquor-and has no intention of giving them up. Even after he accidentally ruins a lady and is forced to offer marriage.

    Two people brought together through an unwanted circumstance discover something neither one believed they'd ever have. Can they let go of their old hurts and beliefs long enough to embrace the gift fate bestowed upon them?
     
    5 STAR REVIEW TITLE: Sweet, Confused Engaging couple 
     
     Yes, they were a Sweet, Confused, Engaging couple. And I adored them ! There was a sweet moment when Caleb gives Jane a puppy named Scamp.  Then he runs off on her, again ! She thinks she's ugly and dull. After all, people have been telling her that for years. And that doesn't help her self esteem much.  Sigh. Dummy, Caleb doesn't know how to love or even really talk to Jane. But he's begun to wish that he could as he begins to see the beauty and true value of Jane that others have missed !
    A really good Epilogue is added and I was glad that it was. The story might have been shorter but it was well worth my time. 
    Thank you Hoopla Library App and Amanda Mariel for giving me that opportunity!
