An innocent lass with a scandalous secret discovers true passion in the New York Times–bestselling author’s Scottish historical romance series finale.
Beneath Ellice Traylor’s innocent exterior beats a fiery, imaginative heart. She has been pouring all of her frustrated virginal fantasies into a scandalous manuscript. But when her plans for her future are derailed by her mother’s matrimonial designs, she takes matters into her own hands.
Ross Forster, the Earl of Gladsden, has spent his life creating order out of chaos. He expects discipline and calm from those around him. What he does not expect is a beautiful, thoroughly maddening stowaway in his carriage.
But when Ross discovers Ellice’s secret book, he finds himself enticed by the disarming virgin’s intimate thoughts. But when a compromising position forces them to wed, the upright Earl and his surprising new wife will discover there’s no substitute for reality . . .
