Description
She needs a champion. He needs one less complication. Neither expects love to be the answer.
Selena Lockhart knows better than to expect kindness from Society. With no dowry and a tarnished family name -- thanks to her father's ruinous gambling -- she has learned to fend for herself. Although the last thing she needs is another arrogant gentleman looking down on her, she has grown accustomed to such treatment. So when her new neighbor, the brooding Sir Lucius Clavering, greets her with cold suspicion, she is hardly surprised.
Sir Lucius has no time for scheming debutantes or their ambitious mothers -- not when he's already drowning in family obligations. As a baronet, he's expected to keep up appearances, protect his wayward siblings, and endure the endless matchmaking attempts of London's elite. The last thing he needs is another demand on his time, especially from a woman Society has already cast aside.
But when Selena appears at his doorstep seeking aid, Lucius soon realizes she is not what he assumed. And the more he tries to keep his distance, the more entangled they become. As scandal looms and their slow-burning attraction ignites, Lucius must decide: will he keep guarding his heart, or risk everything for the one woman who was never part of his carefully laid plans?
A captivating slow-burn Regency romance full of longing, wit, and a reluctant hero worth falling for. This book is suitable for all ages (no spice, clean romance).
