Description
A serious-minded lady's marriage of convenience leads to unexpected passion with a playboy marquis in this scandalously steamy Regency romance.
Fiercely independent Minerva Montrose intends to marry a man whose political ambitions match her own. But her perfectly planned scheme is derailed when she finds herself in a compromising position with the hard-drinking Lord Blakeney. Now, to salvage their reputations, they must marry.
With determined pragmatism, Minerva resolves to mold Blakeney into the sort of man who can fulfill her expectations—both in Parliament and in bed! But she is about to learn there is more to her fiancé than his considerable good looks and his surprisingly seductive skills . . .

        February 20, 2012
        Neville follows 2011’s The Amorous Education of Celia Seaton with an enjoyable but somewhat familiar tale of mismatched Regency-era lovers. Ambitious Minerva Montrose plans to marry a man who will match her own personal political aspirations, but is abruptly derailed when handsome, rakish, politics-ignorant Lord Blakeney mistakes her for his mistress and fondles her in front of witnesses. The two are mutually dismayed to be forced into marriage, and Minerva becomes determined to make Blakeney into the man of her dreams, politically and romantically. The contentious courtship is standard fare and slowed at times by political chatter, but the developing romance is a pleasure to witness, with witty banter and racy love scenes. The gradual discovery of Blakeney’s secret shame is genuine and endearing, making him far more than the standard scurrilous scoundrel. Agent: Meredith Bernstein, Meredith Bernstein Literary Agency.
