Description

Sparks fly in this sexy, fast-paced Regency romance by acclaimed, bestselling author Jane Ashford She Thinks She's Bought a Compliant Husband...They're Both in for a Shock Although Clare Greenough has inherited an unexpected fortune, her money is in the hands of a trustee until she marries-everyone knows a woman is incapable of managing funds. What she needs is an easygoing husband, right away... She makes a deal with impetuous young James Boleigh, seventh baron Trehearth- they will marry, Clare will get control of her money, and Jamie will get the funds he desperately needs to restore his lands. To stave off ruin, Jamie agrees, believing Clare will soon become a proper, submissive wife. But to expect a serene, passionless marriage was only their first mistake.
