He saw her not as tarnished, but as gold.
BEATRICE HARTLEY, daughter to BARON BENTON, is in love and with child… yet not married—a scandal ripe enough to ruin reputations in Regency England. Spurned by the man she gave her heart to in a fleeting moment of passion, she confides in her parents, who hastily arrange a match to salvage her reputation and their family's honor. As Beatrice faces a loveless future, the light of hope dims…
… until CHARLES BEAUMONT, LORD HAWTHORNE, eldest son of LORD and LADY WHICKERTON, returns to England.
Not the hero she expected, but the one she needed.
At a glittering ball, he is struck not by the gaiety but by Beatrice's silent tears. Born to a family that weds for love, Charles is torn between tradition and the unexpected pull of a woman bound to another.
With one look, she became his everything.
Only love’s course is seldom smooth, especially not for the Whickertons. In a society where the whims of the heart battle the weight of duty, will Charles's heart lead him to defy his family’s expectations? Can love truly conquer scandal and set the course for a new destiny? In a world where reputation is everything, watch as one family dares to follow the heart against all odds.
Reputation may waver, but family love stands firm.

Liam, believing her to be someone else, accidentally ruins Cora. Although it was she that he was attracted to, his family expected him to court another. The two marry due to the scandal, but lead separate lives. Liam doesn't know Cora has a scandalous secret and Cora doesn't realize her husband wants a true marriage, but thinks she is too innocent for what he'd like to do. This made for some very exciting interactions between the two. Loved the story and definitely recommend it!
Neither have any idea what they're doing, more so than usual, and neither have any idea how to be with someone. They navigate life the best they can and find love together.
I just loved this book all the humor and the romance and The angst
This is a lovely story between Cora and Liam, forced to marry in the previous book in this series due to a scandalous kiss. Can they ever learn to trust and love each other. Both feel unloved, unwanted and not good enough for their families. Will they listen to their bodies, and believe each other, and will they ever find a place to be alone. This book made me chuckle especially when everywhere they go to be alone, someone from their families is resident or turns up unexpectedly stopping the important connection and frustrating them both. As previous books, this author can paint the scene and the emotions easily and it is as if you are watching the movie and seeing it play out. I especially enjoyed when Liam finally stood his ground and told his Grandmother what she should do. These 2 deserve their happy ending.
I was soooo looking forward to their story. And let me tell you, it meet and exceeded all my expectations. It was simply excellent. I voluntarily read and reviewed this book.
