Maximilian St. James sees
the perfect opportunity to finally become a responsible gentlemen when he
agrees to marry Caroline Tate, an heiress to the famous Tate pottery empire.
His perfect plan goes awry when Caroline runs away to marry her true love. Her sister
Bianca finds herself agreeing to marry Max in her sister's stead after a heated
row with her father. Bianca despises Max and though they are married, she does
everything she can to stay away from him. It's up to Max to win her over, but
is this one challenge he cannot win?
I loved all the lively
conversations early on in Max and Bianca's marriage. This was no love match and
Bianca reminds Max of that fact every day, but Max is determined to make a go
of this business marriage. There was a slow build up of feelings between these
two and it was definitely believable, but Max is keeping a terrible secret that
threatens to tear this couple apart forever. Will Bianca be willing to forgive
Max for his deception? This book had good pacing and I was quickly turning the
pages to see how things would work out. There was also a delightful short story
at the end about Kit and Jennie.
I voluntarily read this
advanced reader copy and all opinions are my own.
