In Regency-era England, Lottie disguises herself as her reclusive brother to fight for social reform in Parliament, only to find a rival in the infuriatingly clever, proper, and attractive Duke of Warwick. Their battle of wits sparks an undeniable attraction--but when the duke grows suspicious, Lottie risks not only exposure of her secret identity but the ruination of her reputation and everything she's worked so hard for. *** In London, 1806, Miss Charlotte (Lottie) Langley is a young woman with ambition far beyond what society allows. Women are expected to embroider, pour tea, marry well, and leave politics to the men. Determined to have a say in her country's future, Lottie assumes the identity of her reclusive brother and infiltrates the all-male world of Parliament to fight for abolition and factory reform. But politics proves far more dangerous when she catches the attention and suspicion of the maddening Duke of Warwick. What begins as a battle of ideologies and wits soon turns into something far more complicated: a mutual fascination and attraction that neither of them can ignore. The duke seems determined to uncover the secret identity that Lottie has worked so hard to conceal. However, as the danger surrounding her deception grows and others become suspicious, even her disguise may not protect her from the frustratingly observant duke who could ruin everything... or from falling for him.

They had been the best of friends since childhood. She knew that he secretly wore spectacles. He knew that she had once stolen all the wine for the Eucharist from the parish church and blamed it on the town drunkard. There was very little that Amy Griffiths did not know about Lord Oliver Hollingsworth, the only friend she had ever had growing up in a tiny village where everybody knew everything about anybody. She was quite happy to rush headlong into spinsterhood while she tended to her mother and worked the small bookshop, and Lord Hollingsworth did not seem inclined to wed anytime soon having ensured no mother in her right mind would allow her daughter to consort with the likes of him after the whole debacle with his once intended, Miss Augusta Fleetwood, a few seasons ago. When Amy is convinced to visit London, little did the both of them realise how meddling some of his friends would be, and how adept at matchmaking the troublesome lot are. Soon, the delicate line between friendship and true love become harder to distinguish. Bit of a slow burn, sweet romance with MATURE content and a lot of humour.

** "Maximilian?" I blink at her silently. She just called my name. By my name. Instead of feeling repulsed and detested by that sound I instead can't feel anything anymore. All I can see is her. My breath stops for a moment again. Just like back in the tent. "Yes it's me." I say, quickly looking away from her side. "Why are you here?" She asks me coldly taking my hand away from her cheek. She then sits up straight in the sofa, far from me. I silently drop my hand back to my lap. I kind of felt disappointed. "Why can't I be here? Can't a husband visit his wife whenever he wants?" She shakes her head. "You're not like other husbands. And I'm not like other wives. You're a husband that's still hung up on their first love. And I'm a wife that wants nothing to do with you." She says with her tired eyes, after having slept only for 2 hours. _____________________________ Maximillian, the Emperor of the Kaisenarch Empire, who still love his first love.
