Publisher Description

She’s trying to make ends meet. He’s out for a bit of fun. 


Cordelia is busy, focused, worried about the future of her fledgling bookbinding business. When a handsome man stops her on the street to pester her with questions, she gives him the consideration he deserves: none. 

That handsome man happens to be the Duke of Stroud, and he finds Cordelia’s hostility hilarious. He gives chase, if only for the pleasure of provoking her again.


He thinks life is a game. She doesn’t play around. 


Within days of meeting Cordelia, Stroud sets a marching band on a matchmaking mama, defaces a local monument, and ropes Cordelia into a round of his favorite game. 

In that same time, Cordelia stitches together the complete works of Mary Wollstonecraft, enthusiastically devotes herself to a petition demanding expanded legal rights for married women, and beats Stroud at his own game.


She defies all expectations. So does he


Most people dismiss Stroud as a fool—himself included. When Cordelia sees past his lighthearted facade, he’s terrified and also... in love? 

Stroud barges into Cordelia’s life, offering her all the material and sensual temptations she’s learned to do without. She usually has willpower to spare, but turning him down takes all of it, and then some. He’s oddly irresistible.

Or maybe they’re just perfect for one another.

Book of Love

I love the combination of the love story and historically significant happenings of the period! I couldn’t quit reading, thoroughly enjoyed both books in the series.

Book of Love

This historical romance couples a history of the difficulties many women faced in marriages, based on early English laws and tradition that gave all legal power to the husband and none to the wife, and the romance possible when a marriage is based on love and respect. It reminds us of the gains of independence and legal rights of women in many countries and that not all women in our world have those rights or are able to keep them.
