Married to the Viscount of Deception: A Historical Romance Novel (Inconvenient Marriages Book 2)
on Amazon
I don’t want a perfect wife. I want you. Angry, stubborn, impossible you.
Miss Isabella Drayton has no interest in the marriage market, until a practical betrothal to the charming Mr. Lawrence Whitby promises freedom to pursue her scientific passions. But when Lawrence vanishes on the night of their engagement ball, leaving only a bloodied handkerchief and a chilling ransom note, Isabella’s carefully ordered world shatters.
Enter Everett Kane, her childhood friend, now a man hardened by loss but unable to resist the brilliant, stubborn woman who once stole his heart. Together, they must untangle a trail of lies, ransom demands, and whispered secrets, all while a dangerous attraction sparks between them.
As deception closes in, Isabella must face the greatest risk of all, trusting Everett with both the truth, and her heart.
* If you enjoy historical romance with compelling characters and a hint of redemption, Married to the Viscount of Deception is sure to captivate your heart. Set against secrets and second chances, this emotionally layered tale follows a marriage of convenience between a guarded, battle-scarred hero and a spirited heroine who refuses to be overlooked.
Brimming with yearning, hope, and hard-won love, it’s a story that will stay with you long after the final page. No cheating, no cliffhangers, just a deeply satisfying happily ever after.
