Matthew Humphrey is a disappointment. He's a lazy, unscrupulous, wastrel who spends too much time in his cups or with a pretty woman in his bed. At least, that's what the Ton believes. Unbeknownst to everyone - including his family - Matt has found a purpose; one that would put more than just his own life at risk if it were discovered! Between spying on the scum that dwell amongst the peerage and maintaining his disastrous reputation, the last thing he needs is a distraction. When the fierce and fiery Beatrice forces her way into his family - her own ambitions hinging on his youngest sister's education - their clash is as predictable as it is intense. The pair find themselves thrown together in a battle of wit and snark, and Bea is certain Matt is little more than a vapid lordling whose carelessness could ruin the life she has built for herself. But as chance and necessity force an unlikely partnership, she begins to doubt that all is as it seems with the youngest Lord Humphrey. As mischief and mayhem give way to vitriol and violence, the spitfire and the scoundrel must choose to trust each other - with their hopes, lives, and true selves - or risk losing everything. ** Book 4 of the Humphrey Chronicles **

WHEN AN UNLIKELY SUITOR.... The Earl of Stokeford is hardly a man of amiable disposition and social graces. He scowls whenever he pleases, becomes rude at any time convenient for him, and worse, has a regrettable tendency to scare ladies out of their wits. Therefore, it is a most astonishing thing indeed when, upon laying eyes on the beautiful Miss Sophie Winscott, he decides to embark on a courtship... Except, of course, the hapless peer knows nothing in the matters of romance...until he receives help from an unlikely quarter. MEETS AN EAGER MATCHMAKER Then enter Miss Winscott's cousin, the vivacious Caroline Davis, who oddly gets along well with the slightly waspish Earl. Determined to help, Caroline endeavours to make a match of the two. But for all her enthusiasm, she can't help but be drawn to the troubled lord... and things start to get a little tangled from there.
