In the grand tapestry of Regency England, where societal expectations and whispered rumours reign supreme, a most unconventional union is forged. Sophie Fulham's life has been a canvas of suffering since her parents' untimely deaths, leaving her at the mercy of her heartless uncle and his unrelenting cruelty. Enter Peter, Viscount Markham, a man burdened by his own reputation as a carefree rake, uninterested in the bonds of matrimony. Their worlds collide with the force of destiny when Peter's father, The Earl of Ashington, gambles their family's future away to Sophie's malevolent guardian. Forced into a marriage neither desires, Sophie and Peter must unravel the truths hidden beneath the veil of society's judgmental gaze. As they navigate their misconceptions and misgivings, they discover a shared resilience and strength, slowly kindling an unexpected affection. Sophie learns that Peter's jovial exterior conceals a heart of gold, and Peter sees beyond Sophie's timid facade to the fierce spirit within. But as their affection deepens, a dangerous secret threatens to unravel their fragile connection. Society's watchful eyes and whispered lies could shatter not only their budding love but also their families' esteemed positions. In a world where reputation is paramount, Sophie and Peter must decide whether to succumb to the dictates of society or follow the unwavering call of their hearts. "My Honourable Viscount" is a tale of unexpected love that defies societal norms, a testament to the resilience of two souls bound by duty but driven by a longing for true connection. Will their love be strong enough to withstand the storms of scandal and save their families from ruin?

Be his paid girlfriend. "God you're so fucking sexy," he'd breathed, his face moving closer to mine. "Go out with me," he groaned. I gasped before nodding. His scent was so intoxicating. His eyes so hypnotizing... "Kiss me," he growled, his eyes suddenly dark and wild with...with lust.
