Fredericka Hale needs a husband. She’s been caring for her deceased sister’s three young children, and now a cousin has petitioned the court for custody. Fredericka is powerless to stop her, but having a husband might sway the ruling. The last thing Fredericka wants is a marriage to a man she doesn’t know, but she’ll do it for the children. So, when the handsome Duke of Wyatthaven shows up with a proposal, she accepts. He'll help her, and in return, they’ll lead separate lives. The Duke of Wyatthaven has no interest in marriage. But, if Wyatt doesn’t marry by week’s end, he’ll lose an inheritance from his grandmother. When his solicitor finds Miss Fredericka Hale, Wyatt considers his problem solved. Fredericka prefers country life to London, so he’s free to continue his life as usual. But when Fredericka and the children show up at Wyatt's door, he can’t deny his attraction. And she can't deny his alure.
I liked this historical romance. Both main characters were very likable. I could feel the attraction between them. I like the differences in how they both handled the children. There was enough excitement and intrigue to keep me interested. I will definitely read another book from the series. Thanks to NetGalley and St Martin's Press for this advanced reader's copy. This review is my unbiased opinion.
