Publisher Description
Love doesn’t need certainty. It needs courage. Brother and sister Griffin and Winifred Ramsey have always looked out for each other. With their parents gone and society looming large, they strike a bargain: help one another find a suitable match. But what begins as a sensible arrangement quickly turns into a test of intuition, trust, and the quiet bravery of listening to the heart.
Part One: Winning Her Hand Lady Winifred believes she’s found the solution to life’s greatest risk—romance. Armed with a meticulously crafted list, she seeks a husband by comparison, not affection. When her lifelong friend Trent Henwood, Earl of Chadwick, fails to meet her “criteria,” Winifred casts him aside. But Trent, unwilling to be written off by the woman he’s loved in silence for years, challenges her notion of love with every breath. The list may be logical—but the heart never is.
Part Two: Conquering Her Heart Miss Abigail Abbott would rather fence with fencing pins than fight off suitors. Her dowry makes her a target—but her temperament makes her a deterrent. Griffin Ramsey, reluctantly drawn into his sister’s matchmaking scheme, agrees to meet the formidable Miss Abbott... only to find himself opposite a woman who defies convention in every sharp-tongued, insect-costumed way. What begins in disbelief shifts into fascination. And somewhere between chaos and clarity, Griffin discovers that fear isn’t a guide—but love might be.
🕊️ If you’ve ever feared making the wrong choice—and longed to trust your instincts anyway… these stories are for you.

A Pact
A brother and sister agree to help the other find a spouse.
On returning from the Continent after five years, Winifred decides it is time she married. She is firmly of the belief that compatibility is the key to a happy marriage and writes up a list of her qualities that need to be matched in a husband. Love is not a requirement and certainly the annoying, irritating, teasing Trent who she has known since childhood and calls her by the unflattering nickname of Fred, is not in the running.
Abigail is grieving and not in a place to think about marriage, however her new found grandfather (a Duke) is thrusting her into the Season with a large dowry and suitors are swarming like flies. And so, she dresses in bad taste, speaks in a high pitched voice, stomps on the feet of her dancing partners and spills drinks over them. This keeps most of the suitors away but also the ladies. When Winifred strikes up conversation with her she is soon dropping most of her pretence but feels betrayed when introduced to Griffin, Winifred’s brother. Enjoyable quick story, though they fell in love too quickly for my liking.
Note: I was surprised that Abigail wasn’t in mourning for her father but wearing bright colours and dancing.
