Romance

Description

Thanks to their large extended family and unconventional courtship, the Worthingtons have seen their share of scandal and excitement. But nothing has prepared them for this...

The Dowager Lady Worthington isn’t quite sure what to make of country-girl Dorothea Stern. As the granddaughter of the Duke of Bristol, Dotty is schooled in the ways and means of the nobility. But her sharp wit and outspoken nature has everyone in a tizzy. Especially their cousin, Dominic, the Marquis of Merton.

Prematurely stuffy, Dom was raised by his cheerless uncle to be wary of a host of things, including innovation, waltzing, and most perilous of all: true love. Still, there’s something about Dotty, beyond her beauty, that Dom cannot resist. But the odds are against him if he intends to win her as his bride. Will he choose loyalty to his family—or risk everything for the one woman he believes is his perfect match…

Advance Praise

“Charm and verve…Dominic and Dotty’s genuine romance grows in the face of credible obstacles, thrumming with satisfying passion. This is a strong continuation of an appealing series.”– Publishers Weekly

“Quinn draws her readers into the second installment of her Worthington series. With a stodgy starched up hero and a softhearted heroine with a penchant for coming to the aid of any cat, dog or human along with recurring characters, the author includes bits of humor and mayhem and weaves it all together to form an enchanting sensual Regency romp.”- RT Book Reviews, 4 Stars

“Quinn offers a refreshing take on historical-romance conventions as the conflicts arise realistically after the couples get together. Merton’s character arc is especially strong here, and readers will find plenty of heat to enjoy on the way to the wedding. Grace Burrowes’ readers will also appreciate the intelligent commentary on issues of the day.”– Booklist
