Unladylike Lessons in Love

‘Sizzling romance with a splash of intrigue’ Julia Quinn, author of Bridgerton

'Loved the witty dialogue … and sizzling repartee!' Good Housekeeping, 'Best Romance Books to Read'

Fast-paced and feisty Regency fiction with a dazzlingly daring heroine who breaks the mould.

Not every Regency lady is looking for a husband…

As the daughter of an English earl and his Indian mistress, impulsive Lila Marleigh has already broken the rules of society into tiny pieces.

When a face she never thought she would see again appears and begs for help, Lila must court notoriety once more and pit her wits against the annoyingly handsome aristocrat, Ivor Tristram. But does she risk opening her heart to the one person who can break it…?
