There’s nothing more confounding than the science of true love… Miss Lucy Scranton is not going to spend yet another Season without prospects. She is determined to be married soon. It’s unfortunate that the only man her heart seems inclined toward is her childhood best friend, who is far more interested in science than in her. But marriage doesn’t have to be about love...right? As the fifth son of an earl, Roderick Northcott is on his own financially, with only a small allowance that he's growing embarrassed to accept. If he wants the funds to support his friends’ scientific endeavors, he’ll need to marry an heiress. He knows the frivolous Lucy is not a suitable prospect. So, why can’t he stay away? But when Roderick unwittingly drags Lucy into a dangerous investigation he’s undertaken for the Home Office, he realizes just how badly he’s underestimated her intelligence—and how much he wants her. His hypothesis is that he can eventually win her heart. Now all he must do is test it. Assuming he can keep her safe long enough to get to happily ever after… Confounding the Fortune Hunter is the last book in the Northcott Kinship series.
