He can win her freedom, but can she win his heart? With Sophie Twisden’s grandmother laid up with an unidentified illness, causing them to withdraw from the Paris social scene, the pompous Sheldon Cholmeley appoints himself as Sophie’s protector.

So when her new friend Basile de Gervain offers her the protection of his name and promises that he will not allow harm to come to her reputation when she breaks the sham betrothal and returns to London, she has little hesitation in accepting. What once was an unthinkable notion—to align herself with a foreigner—becomes more and more the desire of her heart as she discovers how closely shared are their thoughts and sentiments. But now that it is time to leave Paris and put an end to their act, she wishes she might remain and become Madame de Gervain in earnest. But what use is it to harbour a secret hope that he will declare his undying love, when he only proposed out of pity in the first place? ♥ A Sham Betrothal is a clean & wholesome Georgian romance, written in the traditional style. ♥ Other books in the Georgians in Paris The Accidental Servants by Christina Dudley A Match Gone Awry by Arlem Hawks The Vicomte’s Masquerade by Sofi Laporte A Sham Betrothal by Jennie Goutet
