About this ebook
Lady Charlotte Collins returns to England as a poor widow. She's eager to take her place in the ton, but is quickly shunned by all. There is only one way to redeem her good standing: find a groom with wealth, a title, and good looks.
Alasdair "Dare" McGregor is a deliciously handsome and brilliantly inventive Scottish earl who possesses all these fine attributes, but he cruelly refuses to be the answer to Charlotte's problems.
So what is she to do but take extreme measures? She'll make him fall in love with her by any means necessary, even a firearm. Can this determined lady capture his heart, or will she misfire?
And about that shooting incident...Charlotte was only trying to cheer him up.
"Imbued with a delectable sense of wit...an irresistible, laughter-laced treat."—Booklist
"Another wonderful Regency romp. Funny and fast-paced, with surprising twists...a memorable book."—RT Book Reviews

About the author
For as long as she can remember, Katie MacAlister has loved reading. Growing up in a family where a weekly visit to the library was a given, Katie spent much of her time with her nose buried in a book. Despite her love for novels, she didn’t think of writing them until she was contracted to write a non-fiction book about software. Since her editor refused to allow her to include either witty dialogue or love scenes in the software book, Katie swiftly resolved to switch to fiction, where she could indulge in world building, tormenting characters, and falling madly in love with all her heroes. Two years after she started writing novels, Katie sold her first romance, Noble Intentions. More than thirty books later, her novels have been translated into numerous languages, been recorded as audiobooks, received several awards, and are regulars on the New York Times, USA Today, and Publishers Weekly bestseller lists. She also writes for the young adult audience as Katie Maxwell.Katie lives in the Pacific Northwest with her husband and dogs, and can often be found lurking around online.
