| Augusta MacLeish and her four siblings have been living in poverty in their castle due to a greedy and dishonest guardian. Colin Fordyce inherits the earldom and five Scottish wards. Propriety demands that they marry after spending the night together. It should be a hardship as the pair are virtual strangers; however they are now free to explore the sexual chemistry that ignited between them at first touch.
I loved this sensual quick read. This novella had three of my favorite elements; a Scottish castle, a Regency setting and a sultry romance. The characters were appealing and well-developed, I found myself pleasantly surprised by this as that is seldom the case in shorter stories. Colin is an ultimate hero with his sense of honor and sexual magnetism. Augusta is a strong female lead and a perfect match for the sexy peer. This is definitely a keeper and I can't wait to read the author's future spicy regencies.
