Mary has no desire to marry. She loves the country and anything to do with being outdoors. She believes that if she marries, he husband will make her give it all up. Up to this point, she has made a point to not encourage anyone to offer for her. But her father is determined to see her settled, so she has agreed to participate in the next season, under certain conditions. But first, she must get through the house party her parents are having. Soon after it starts, she meets her brother's best friend, the Duke of Carlton. While she is instantly attracted to him, she knows that he would never be the type of husband to allow her to continue to live in the country and keep up her favorite past times. But he could be useful in other ways...to help her attract the attention of a neighbor, who she thinks would allow her to stay in the country.
Dale knows that he must marry sometime in the future, but it won't be anytime soon. He also knows that he wants a biddable wife who won't fight him of every issue. When he finds himself attracted to his best friend's little sister, he knows that she is wrong for him for many reasons. But as he gets to know her over the holiday season, he can't seem to stop thinking about her.
When will these two realize that their HEA is with the other??
I loved Mary and Dale story!! Both of them just knew that the other was not for them, yet neither could seem to stop thinking about the other. I loved watching them come to know each other and the bantering between the two. Such fun!! I've throughly enjoyed the first two books in the series and I can't wait to see what Gill had in store for us next!
You can get this book at the following retailers;
