A Marquess Beyond Her Rules Ebook

Lydia Faircross knows how to make a perfect match. She also knows better than to fall for a client.

When Julian Blackmere, Marquess of Carrow, arrives with twelve exact requirements for a wife, Lydia accepts the most difficult commission of her career. Six eligible ladies. Eight weeks. One fee that could secure the independence she has spent years building. All she must do is teach an impossibly exacting gentleman to recognise the woman he wants.

Julian expects Lydia to correct his list. Instead, her wit, courage and refusal to agree with him begin to overturn everything he thought marriage should be. The more suitable women she introduces, the harder he finds it to look anywhere but at his matchmaker.

But a whispered suspicion can ruin a woman whose livelihood rests on discretion. When London turns their growing affection into scandal, a title and a marriage licence cannot mend what has been broken. To win Lydia, Julian must learn the one thing no list can teach him: how to ask for love without deciding its answer.
