Contracted as His Countess by Louise Allen

Madelyn has lived a secluded life in her father's refurbished castle where almost everything was authentic to the time of the original construction. Because of this, she doesn't really know how to go about in polite society. She also doesn't want to leave the castle. But her father's last wish was for her to marry a nobleman. He even had one picked out for her and the means to get him to agree...

Jack doesn't live like most noblemen. His title is one without land or money, so he doesn't see the need. He does jobs for other nobleman to make his way in life. When his invite from Madelyn arrives, he figures that she has a job for him to complete. He never imagined that she would propose marriage and the return of his ancestral properties.

Jack agrees to the arrangement. But as these two spend time together, they can't deny the attraction they feel. Can this marriage of convenience turn into one of love?

I really enjoyed this story. If was different from those I normally read. I loved watching Madelyn adjust to the present world after having living in the past at her castle. I also like that she stood up for herself and didn't try to conform to what the societal norm of the time was.
