About this eBook

An infamous Earl makes an indecent bet with his beautiful nurse in this sexy Victorian romance series debut.

Known as a brazen philanderer, Hayden Milton, Earl of Westfield, is almost done in by a vengeful mistress who aims a gun at a rather essential part of his anatomy—but ends up wounding his thigh instead. Recuperating in his London townhouse, Hayden is confronted by his new medical attendant. Sophia Camden intrigues him, for behind her starched uniform is an enticing beauty better suited for bedding than dispensing salves and changing bandages.

Unshaken by his arrogance, not to mention impropriety, Sophia offers Hayden a dare: allow her ten days to prove her competency. If she resigns in exasperation like her two predecessors, she will be beholden to this wicked seducer. As a battle of wills begins, Sophia finds herself distracted by the earl’s muscular physique . . . and discovers that the man within longs only for a second chance to love.

Known as a brazen philanderer, Hayden Milton, Earl of Westfield, is almost done in by Adele Fontaine, a vengeful mistress who aims a gun at a rather essential part of his anatomy—but ends up wounding his thigh instead. Recuperating in his London townhouse, Hayden is confronted by his new medical attendant. Sophia Camden intrigues him, for behind her starched uniform is an enticing beauty better suited for bedding than dispensing salves and changing bandages. Unshaken by his arrogance, not to mention impropriety, Sophia offers Hayden a dare: allow her ten days to prove her competency. If she resigns in exasperation like her two predecessors, she will be beholden to this wicked seducer. So a battle of wills begins. I enjoyed this debut novel which featured the well used trope of disliking each other but physically attracted also the H & h having guilt that they need to overcome. The characters are very well developed I loved Hayden, a very attractive man with also a very wicked sense of humour, his demeanour of a rogue hid a man with much greater depths & also a deep seated guilt. Sophia is a very strong woman who would love to become a doctor. The physical attraction between the pair is obvious from the start but it is their verbal spars which is so very entertaining. Throw in a vengeful former mistress & of course Celia & Lady Julia for a book I found hard to put down My honest review is for a special copy I voluntarily read

I was hooked from the very beginning, and loved every word! I honestly couldn't put it down, and didn't want it to end! The interactions between Sophia and Hayden had me laughing, crying and cursing them both at times! Edith, Celia, Thomas and even Lady Olivia all delighted me! So many great characters to love! Even the more minor ones like Mathews, Hawthorne, Lord Henry, and of course Simon. I highly recommend this one!!

Loved it. The Earl met his match with his new nurse. Love danger an adorable "little" girl and her "bigger" dog. So much adventure. I didn't want to put it down.
