With his obligations, Everett has no time for foolish temptations such as Miss Hales…so why does he constantly find her thrown into his path?Meanwhile, Audra has conjured all sorts of wild imaginings concerning the frustrating Marquess, and every time she encounters him, he leaves her breathless rather than answering her questions! After all, what is ailing the mysterious duke? Could the marquess be a villain masquerading as the savior of his family? And most importantly: should she marry Lord Garner, the safe suitor, or follow her heart?Book One of the Cecilia's Mismatches series is a stand-alone novel from bestselling and award-winning author Suzan Lauder.
