In this delightful Regency romance, Lady Evangeline Raine, who prefers animals over people, is forced into the London season by her father’s rule that her sister, Viola, can only debut if Evangeline accompanies her. Enter Gage Croft, the debt-ridden Duke of Vale, tasked with charming Evangeline to clear his debts. But Evangeline flips the script, proposing a scandalous arrangement: she’ll attend, but only if Gage agrees to be her lover. What starts as a fake courtship soon turns into real passion. With witty banter, steamy encounters, and a feminist twist, this story is a fun, engaging romance where love and independence take center stage.
