The richest bachelor in England plays matchmaker…for an heiress he wants for himself!
For beautiful, witty Lavinia Gray, there’s only one thing worse than having to ask the appalling Parth Sterling to marry her: being turned down by him.
Now the richest bachelor in England, Parth is not about to marry a woman as reckless and fashion-obsessed as Lavinia; he’s chosen a far more suitable bride.
But when he learns of Lavinia’s desperate circumstances, he offers to find her a husband. Even better, he’ll find her a prince.
As usual, there’s no problem Parth can’t fix. But the more time he spends with the beguiling Lavinia, the more he finds himself wondering…
Why does the woman who’s completely wrong feel so right in his arms?
Gentlemen didn’t kiss like this. And yet he couldn’t stop . . .
She tasted better than anything—anyone. She tasted like honey and spice, like brandy and excitement.
Dimly, he was aware that blood was thundering through his veins . . . from a mere kiss.
The reality of it shocked him back into sense and he pulled back, ending the kiss. Lavinia opened her eyes. Annoyed. She was annoyed. Years of reading her face told him exactly how she was feeling.
“Kiss me again, Mr. Sterling,” she ordered, her voice husky. For a moment he just felt a flare of anger at that formal address, but she tugged at his hair.
He dove back into the kiss as if it had never ended.
Parth may not be a Wilde by birth but in every other way he is, he's a self made man and one of the richest in the country. Lavinia is beautiful and intelligent and is one of the most sot after heiress in London and Paris. After Lavinia discovers her what her mother has done to prevent the ruination of the family Lavinia asks Parth to marry her, unfortunately after she's given him some nicknames like Perfect Parth and Appalling Parth he wasn't very inclined to marry her. Even after Lavinia broke down and explained why Parth merely agreed to help her find a suitable gentleman. Parth has another woman he has his sights set on to be his wife a widowed contessa from Italy. But after what transpired between Lavinia and Parth he can't seem to get Lavinia off his mind and matchmaking, sheesh, it wasn't as easy as he thought it would be, in his mind not even a Norwegian Prince is good enough for her.
The antics of Parth and Lavinia as the circle each other both having feelings for the other but to scared to admit it was quite amusing. As always Eloisa James' active setting is outstanding, from the scenery of the bog to the streets of London she transports you back in time especially with her descriptions of the dresses and such, it's just wow, it feeds the imagination. I love all the quirky characters, Lady Knowe is probably my favorite. Parth and Lavinia I knew as soon as I read their introduction to each other in Wilde in Love, I knew they were perfect for each other I was right they are and this book was their perfect HEA.
