About this ebook

USA Today Bestseller

American heiress Piety Grey is on the run. Suddenly in London and facing the renovation of a crumbling townhouse, she’s determined to make a new life for herself—anything is better than returning to New York City where a cruel mother and horrid betrothal await her. The last thing she needs is a dark, tempting earl inciting her at every turn…

Trevor Rheese, the Earl of Falcondale, isn’t interested in being a good neighbor. After fifteen years of familial obligation, he’s finally free. But when the disarmingly beautiful Piety bursts through his wall—and into his life—his newfound freedom is threatened…even as his curiosity is piqued.

Once Piety’s family arrives in London, Falcondale suddenly finds himself in the midst of a mock courtship to protect the seductive woman who’s turned his world upside down. It’s all for show—or at least it should be. But if Falcondale isn’t careful, he may find a very real happily ever after with the woman of his dreams…

Ratings and reviews

This was a great read! I didn't want to put it down, but I did so it wouldn't end too soon! LOL You will love Piety Grey!

Just excellent! I couldn't put the book down. It has the right amounts of conflict, romance and humor. Hurry with the July next one...

This would be a really good book if not for piety Exaggerated fear of her family and Trever's fear of getting close with someone (which I also find ridiculous). Wish the author would have thought of a more exciting story of why Piety had to come up with a scheme to avoid marrying her stepbrother. Seems to me she could have just said no and be done with it. The only saving grace to this book is the Marchioness, I loved her character.

About the author

She grew up on a peach farm in Texas and gave tours at Disney World in college but now can be found raising her family and writing love stories from her screened-in porch in Northern Virginia.
