She can’t afford to make the same mistake other teachers have made—mistakes that have forced them to marry! So when the Marquess asks Beatrice to pose as his temporary fiancée, she would have refused… Until he offered to discover the identity of whoever has been vandalizing the school. How could she not agree to the bargain when the safety of the students is at stake? In conceding, however, she insists all proprietary be upheld! Chaperone, check. Separate coaches, check . Signed contract, double check. All this prim teacher lacks is a little self-control—or rather, quite a lot of self-control—as she’s having increasing difficulties keeping her hands off this detective/marquess. Lord Sexton, Chief investigator and Interim Director of the Society for the Advancement of Ingenuity in London, needs to address one last detail to convince the board to make his position a permanent A wife. In his mind, a temporary betrothed will be just as effective. And Miss Beatrice Wolcott is perfect for the job! As an intelligent woman, she’ll understand the practicality of his offer, not yearn for romantic gestures, and most importantly, never expect him to make her his marchioness. The charade works out perfectly until they surrender to the steamy attraction between them. And to complicate matters, the woman Sexton is inexplicably falling for, seems to be keeping a few secrets of her own. Is his make-believe betrothed as uncomplicated as he’d initially believed, or is she perhaps, the greatest mystery of all?

Married to the same man for over 25 years, I am a mother to three children and two Miniature Wiener dogs. After owning a business and experiencing considerable success, my husband and I got caught in the financial crisis and lost everything in 2008; our business, our home, even our car. At this point, I put my B.A. in Poly Sci to use and took work as a waitress and bartender (Insert irony). Unwilling to give up on a professional life, I simultaneously went back to college and obtained a degree in Energy Management. And then the energy market dropped off. And then my dog died. I can only be grateful for this series of unfortunate events, for, with nothing to lose and completely demoralized, I sat down and began to write the romance novels which had until then, existed only my imagination. After publishing over twenty novels now, with one having been nominated for RWA’s Distinguished ™RITA Award in 2019, I am happy to tell you that I have finally found my place in life.
