About this eBook
A dashing rake must prove he has changed his scandalous ways to win his one true love from the arms of another, in a witty new Regency romance from the national bestselling author of The Rake's Daughter.
Heiress Clarissa Studley yearns to be loved for more than her fortune. Warmhearted, but plain and shy, she wishes to marry, but has two firm rules: no rakes and no fortune-hunters — her father was both, and she’ll never forget the misery he caused.
So, when Race, Lord Randall, starts to pay Clarissa attention, she knows she must keep him at a distance. Attractive and charming he might be, Race’s reputation precedes him and she’s observed first hand his flirtatious ways with London society beauties. But Race sees a beauty in Clarissa that others cannot, and for the first time in his life, he is truly in love. And when a rival for Clarissa's affections appears — a handsome, wounded war hero, heir to his great-aunt’s fortune — Race becomes desperate as Clarissa seems tempted to make a safer, tamer choice.
Can Race convince Clarissa that his love is true and that she can trust him with her heart? And can Clarissa put aside her unhappy past, and follow her heart, despite the risk of loving a rake?

Heiress Clarissa, scarred by her father’s treatment, has vowed to avoid rakes and fortune-hunters. However, she’s captivated by Lord Randall, who sees her unique beauty. As a wounded war hero also pursues her, Clarissa must decide if she can trust Randall. Can she move past her traumas and embrace a reformed rake who truly loves her? This novel has a light-hearted and flirtatious feel. I particularly enjoyed the “found family” aspect of the book. Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC I received.
