Discover the first installment in the new delightfully charming Scottish romance series where the matchmaker of Edinburgh uses her uncanny abilities to create the perfect matchesāeven if the couples are doubtful theyāll ever find love.
An accomplished sculptor with secret ambitions, Ina Duncan has managed to avoid marriage for years until an accidental encounter at a party leaves her near ruin and in need of a husband. Fast. Determined to find a willing husband for Ina, Edinburghās most powerful matchmaker, Moira Sullivan, quickly realizes that the solution to Inaās problem might be right in front of her.
Inaās best friend, Gavin Barrett, has a secret no one knows: heās loved her for years. As the second son of a baronet, however, he knows he has little chance with his brilliant, beautiful friend. All that changes when Moira convinces Ina to propose a marriage of convenience to Gavin to save her from ruin. Ina only wants two things from him in return: a vow she can continue to sculpt and a promise theyāll remain in Edinburgh.
After a rocky start, happinessāand maybe passionāseems on the horizon for the newlyweds until a twist of fate bestows the title of Sir Barrett on Gavin and forces him to assume responsibilities heās never wanted. Forced to mold herself into the perfect baronetās wife, Ina must choose between her dreams and the man sheās learning to love.
