The Earl’s Marriage of Convenience by Kristin Vayden

A ruined earl determined to finally be a better man. A lady with a devastating secret. A marriage of convenience could save or destroy them both. Once the ton’s most charming rake, the Earl of Devon is a man on the brink of social ruin unless he can marry a woman above reproach with a powerful family, and no inconvenient questions. He must find a bride before his past finds him or or his family will pay the price. Lady Eliza Montford vigilantly guards a secret that jeopardizes her future. The one way to protect herself—secure a titled husband with enough ruthless influence to keep her truth buried. With only half a London season remaining, time’s running out. When Edwin and Eliza meet, the attraction is immediate and dangerously inconvenient. Under the ton’s relentless scrutiny, one misstep leads to compromise. The solution is marriage but to quiet gossip, they must convince the ton theirs is a love match. For Eliza pretense is second nature, yet every practiced glance and touch begins to feel real and dangerous. Secrets rarely stay buried and Eliza and Edwin jealously protect their hearts.
