The Spinster’s Scandalous Ruin
The Spinster’s Scandalous Ruin
A Steamy Regency Romance Novella
Book 5 in Scandals of the Season
She has three weeks to escape a monster. He's the rake who'll ruin her to save her
Lady Cecily Marchmont would rather face complete social destruction than marry the cruel Lord Wessex—a man whose previous wives met mysterious, tragic ends. When her father announces the engagement and procures a special license, Cecily has one desperate plan: convince London's most notorious rake to ruin her so thoroughly that even Wessex won't want her.
Lord Christopher "Kit" Greystowe has built his reputation on scandal, but he's never been asked to destroy an innocent lady's future. Until the brave, desperate spinster walks across a ballroom and demands exactly that. One look at her courage—and one mention of Wessex's name—and Kit knows he can't refuse.
But what begins as a carefully orchestrated public scandal becomes something far more dangerous: genuine desire. When Kit discovers Cecily's secret thrill at being watched, at being seen, he realizes she's not the prim spinster she pretends to be. She's a woman awakening to her own power, her own pleasure—and he wants to be the one who guides her exploration.
The plan was simple: ruin her reputation, marry her for protection, then let her go.
The reality? He's falling for his scandalous wife. And she's not going anywhere.
A complete steamy novella of approximately 18,000 words—perfect for one delicious sitting! Features a marriage of convenience, a rake with a heart of gold, voyeuristic tension, and a heroine who chooses her own happily-ever-after. No cheating, no cliffhanger, all the heat you crave!
