About this ebook

Andrew, Lord Drake, has been cut out of his father’s will because of his dissolute manner of living. To be reinstated, Andrew decides to pretend that he has changed his wicked ways.

As part of his plan, he wants to convince his father that he is courting a respectable woman with the intention of marrying her. The problem is, he doesn’t know any decent women, except for his friend’s spinster sister, Miss Caroline Hargreaves. He blackmails the reluctant Caroline into helping him, and so the charade begins . . .

Ratings and reviews

A bargain struck between a debauched rake and an innocent bluestocking; Andrew, Lord Drake, in an act of desperation, asks Miss Caroline Hargreaves to enter a mock courtship. His hope is that his dying father will believe him reformed and re-instate his inheritance. Caroline soon comes to discover there is more to Andrew than she ever realized but will Andrew's past stand in the way of making the pretend courtship real?

I Will (Capitol Theatre Book #2.5) by Lisa Kleypas was a fun and cute Christmas Novella as well as being the first of her stories that I have read. I enjoyed seeing how Andrew (Lord Drake) and Caroline changed and fell in love during the course of this story.

I always like Lisa Kleypas heroine's characters, Caroline included. Strong yet feminine at the same time.
