About this eBook
A “sophisticated, witty” (Romantic Times) and scandalous tale of love from New York Times bestselling author Eloisa James.
AVAILABLE DIGITALLY FOR THE FIRST TIME
Gilbert Baring-Gould, the Earl of Kerr, has no plans to settle down…regardless of his fiancée Emma, who lives in the country.
But Miss Emma Loudan is no quiet country mouse.
When the earl goes too far, announcing he won’t marry until his fiancée has his ring on her finger and his baby on the way, Emma takes matters into her own hands.
Before he knows it, Gil will find that his ring—and his virtue—are no longer his own…
And he’s fighting the battle of his life to woo the woman he planned to throw away.
To Wed a Rake was previously published as A Proper Englishwoman in the anthology Talk of the Ton.

This author never disappoints! She writes stories I love...just great classical romance...without all the mysticism and witchcraft so many are adding to their books nowadays. I just want a love story and this was a good one!

I love Emma, strong, smart and brave. I also like Gil, worth the read. It's short, but it makes you laugh, smile and tugs on your heart just a little.

Too short. Ending rather lame. Not worth money. Thought after reading sample it was a book not a short story I was purchasing. Story line was good.
