Lady Lilianna Chance, daughter of the Marquess of Aylesbury, has a high opinion of herself, her looks, her reputation, and her family, and thus she plans to make a stupendous match. Falling into the arms of a reprobate was not the plan. Raised by her parents to be perfect, and to be the perfect wife, Lilianna is horrified to discover that the rogue who caught her when she stumbled out of a carriage immediately proposes. Proposes! To her! Him! Not a chance in hell. But Arthur Nelson, Earl of Taernsby, is not a man to take no for an answer. He's recently inherited the earldom from his brother and desperately needs an heir-or the title will disappear forever, and his goal of redeeming the family name will be ended. So it's simple. Choose the best, brightest, and most beautiful woman in the ton.

Marry her. Have six sons. What he's not prepared for is Lady Lilianna's passion, her spirit-her determination never to see him again. A battle commences: one of wits, sharp remarks, and¿thousands of flowers?.
