Arabella and her friends were expelled from a you ladies' academy and since then, they have been shunned by most of polite society. It doesn't really bother her as she would rather spend her time reading medical texts and helping those around her. When she is forced to accompany her family on a grand tour, she makes the best of it and sneaks off to see the things she wants to see along the way. On one of those jaunts, she runs into the Earl of Langdale. Arabella knows what he is a rake, but when they spend time together, she can't seem to fight the attraction between the two.
Gabriel has left London after a scandal involving a married woman. Because of additional trouble on the home front, he is on the search for his mother who left the family years ago. His latest destination is Switzerland where he meets Arabella. They in up getting caught kissing and Gabriel is obligated to offer marriage.
Neither wants the marriage, but Gabriel is enough of a gentleman to not let Arabella be ruined by their actions. While their marriage starts as one of convenience, is soon turns into something more. But the trouble on the home front didn't go away in Gabriel's time away. Can they fight this enemy and save their new family?
I absolutely adored Arabella and Gabriel's story!! We met both of them in the previous story in the series and I love how Bennett redeemed Gabriel in this one. I like marriage of convenience stories because the H/H are stuck with one another and it is aways interesting how they find their way to their HEA. I've loved both stories in this series so far and can't wait to read book 3!!
