Beakers and ball gowns don’t mix.
So when lady chemist and avowed spinster, Miss Liliana Claremont, receives a coveted invitation to the Earl of Stratford’s house party, no one expects her to accept. After all, it’s well known that Lord Geoffrey Wentworth, a rising political star, is in need of a suitable bride, and it’s assumed he will choose one from the select group of attendees.
Yet Liliana has no desire to lure the rich and powerful earl into marriage. She’s come to Somerton Park for one reason—to uncover what the Wentworths had to do with the murder of her father. She intends to find justice, even if she has to ruin Stratford to do it.
To get the evidence she needs, Liliana intends to keep her enemy close, though romance is not part of her formula. But it only takes one kiss to start a reaction she can’t control…

Customer Reviews
Highly Readable 4.5*
The action takes place at a house party full of husband hunting ladies and an Earl trying his best to avoid their clutches. When he realises that Liliana truly has no wish for marriage, he relaxes his barriers with her and gradually they form a friendship which leads to a kiss..... I loved the fact that the heroine was of a scientific bent and how that put her at odds with Society but how she doesn’t care. However her need to find out the truth of her father’s murder and her single minded purpose in getting there may be the loss of the man she has fallen for.
