•A rebellious heiress determined to be independent

Sometimes, finding love means flouting the rules…
Born to a life of privilege, Lady Ravenna Huntley rues the day that she must marry. She's refused dozens of suitors and cried off multiple betrothals, but running away—even if brash and foolhardy—is the only option left to secure her independence.
Lord Courtland Chase, grandson of the Duke of Ashvale, was driven from England at the behest of his cruel stepmother. Scorned and shunned, he swore never to return to the land of his birth. But when a twist of bad luck throws a rebellious heiress into his arms, at the very moment he finds out he's the new Duke, marriage is the only alternative to massive scandal.
Both are quick to deny it, but a wedding might be the only way out for both of them. And the attraction that burns between them makes Ravenna and Courtland wonder if it'll truly only be a marriage of convenience after all…

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Bridgerton fans, rejoice! Amalie Howard’s marriage-of-convenience novel will tide over romance lovers waiting for more of their favorite show. Lord Courtland Chase, Duke of Ashvale, has faced a lot of prejudice because of his mixed-race provenance, and he’s vowed never to sire a child who would face the same stigmas and obstacles. When Court is caught in a compromising position with his childhood friend, Lady Ravenna Huntley, and is forced to marry, he insists it will be a marriage in name only—but Ravenna has a mind of her own. Traveling from Antigua to London, this sweeping Victorian romance feels epic in scope. Court is a wonderful alpha hero who’s self-aware, and his journey to accept love is heartfelt and poignant.
