About this ebook
To escape her past, a woman runs off to Venice—and into the arms of an earl . . .“Quinn writes classic Regency romance at its best!”—Shana Galen, author of An Affair with a Spare
Ella Quinn’s bachelors are clever, charismatic—and determined to remain single. Yet one by one, they find that fate—and certain irresistible women—cast doubt on the best laid plans . . .
Haunted by her past, Lady Caroline Martindale fled England for the solace of her godmother’s palazzo in Venice. But if Caro was hoping to escape the charms of marriage-minded men, she’s come to the wrong place. And she’ll resort to extreme measures to spurn the advances of a dangerously determined Venetian marquis . . .
Though most of his friends have married off, Gervais, Earl of Huntley, remains bent on eluding the parson’s mousetrap. But his convictions begin to falter when he arrives in Venice and meets his match in the alluring Lady Caro. What began as a hastily concocted lie to save her from the marquis may become a chance for them both to relinquish their fear—and embrace what they can no longer deny . . .

Caro left England to escape fortune hunters, but Venice isn’t the haven she needs. Huntley helps her escape an overzealous suitor. As they trek across the Continent, a marriage of convenience may be the only way to save her. Beneath the surface of this light-hearted romp, there are undercurrents of Caro’s tragic past. Overall, though, it’s a heartwarming romance with an adventurous story and characters you can’t help rooting for. Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC I received.
