STRATAGEM FOR THE RESTORATION OF RESPECTABILITY TO THE DUKE OF STANHOPE:
Step 1: Find perfect wife
Step 2: Save reputation from ruin
Step 3: Do not, at any cost, fall in love with Selina Ravenscroft
Peter Kent, newly inherited Duke of Stanhope, has developed quite the scandalous reputation - which must be overturned if he is to win the guardianship of his young half siblings.
For help he turns to Lady Selina Ravenscroft, society's most proper debutante (save one tiny secret...). She suggests courtship and marriage to a lady of unimpeachable character - which due to the aforementioned secret is definitely not Selina herself.
But her matchmaking goes awry when the scorching chemistry between them proves impossible to resist. For the disreputable duke and his unpredictable matchmaker, falling in love might just be the ultimate scandal...

As the new Duke of Stanhope, Peter Kent has newly gained responsibilities; mainly two little responsibilities. His father left this world with two illegitimate children, and Peter must take care of them. He's thrilled with the idea of having siblings, however, his reputation is not ideal and the custody trial is near. He was born in New Orleans, he is definitely not a traditional Englishman, which would help his cause. Enter Selina Ravencroft, a respected lady that hides a damning secret. She provides scandalous reading options to the women in society through her library. They both met a few years prior, and after a fateful reunion, Selina decides she'll help Peter with his predicament. She compiles a short list of respectable ladies available in the marriage-mart; Peter has his sights on the one lady not in that list, Selina herself. I liked both MCs, and their attraction for each other was so evident I don't really understand why they didn't get together earlier. I'm not a big fan of children in romance books, and this was not the exception. Freddie wasn't much of an issue, but Lu wasn't my favorite. Still, I did like the ending and she almost redeemed herself in my eyes. I'll be keeping my eye out for the author's next book.
