Lady Bridget's Wayward Rake

A marriage of convenience. A reckless marquess. A love neither expected to fight for.

Lady Bridget Riddle has always dreamed of a life filled with stories, romance, and peace. Yet reality taught her to be practical. Fiercely loyal and quietly courageous, Bridget longs for nothing more than a simple future at Ivy Cottage-a place tied to her dearest memories. But when her late father's will demands marriage to claim it, Bridget faces the unthinkable: a union with a man whose charm she distrusts almost as much as the way he makes her heart race.

Marcius, Marquess of Heathfield, has been captivated by Bridget from the moment he first saw her. When he learns that marriage to her is the only condition to inherit Ivy Cottage, he does not hesitate-though the house means little compared to having the fiery beauty by his side. Known for his reckless ways and effortless charm, Marcius is determined to win Bridget's trust... even if she vows to resist him at every turn.

But when a hidden secret about Bridget's late parents comes to light, their fragile marriage is tested in ways neither could foresee. As they uncover a dangerous truth buried beneath years of deception, trust-and the love growing quietly between them-becomes their greatest hope. In a world built on appearances and lies, Bridget and Marcius must decide if risking their hearts is worth the ultimate reward.

The third book in The Riddle Sisters series, Lady Bridget's Wayward Rake is a sweet and captivating Regency romance about dangerous secrets, unexpected alliances, and the courage to follow one's heart.
