The Wallflower's Great Escape

She was trying to escape one unwanted marriage. She never expected to end up in a deliciously inconvenient one with her brother’s brooding best friend.


Lady Georgiana Chadwick is done being a pawn in Society’s games. She has no intention of marrying the ancient marquess her father has chosen for her, no matter how many debts the match would settle. With a daring escape plan in motion, Georgie is finally ready to take control of her life—until her brother’s best friend, Lord Jason Pemberton, Earl of Pembroke, catches her in the act.


Jason has no interest in playing the hero. Haunted by the past and determined to keep his heart safely locked away, he only agreed to watch over Georgiana as a favor. But the stubborn, sharp-tongued wallflower is nothing like he expected. She’s infuriating, reckless, far too tempting…and suddenly very much his problem.


When one daring escape leads to a very public scandal, there’s only one respectable solution: a marriage of convenience. Now Georgie and Jason are trapped together in delicious forced proximity, matching wits, trading barbs, and trying very hard not to want each other.


But the longer they share a house, a future, and one inconveniently irresistible attraction, the harder it becomes to tell where duty ends and desire begins. What started as a scandalous rescue may become the one thing neither of them expected: a forever kind of love.
