Lady Liar: A Regency Historical Romance
She has her reasons for wishing for a Corinthian who would not know a book if it hit him over the head. He is a member of The Royal Society wishing to find his intellectual equal.
Lady Verity Nicolet, number five of the Duke of Pelham's daughter's, is poised to take her place in society. She's also poised to carefully guard the secret she's harbored all her life. She considers herself the stupidest of the Nicolets and, try as she might, she cannot read. Words, diabolical words, swim in front of her eyes and she's never been able to make them settle.
Henry Foster, Baron Wembly, has spent the past few years happily engaged in his scientific research and communing with his fellow Royal Society members. However, he finds that when he goes home to Somerset alone, the days are long and the nights are longer. He is determined to wed, and he sets out to locate a baroness who is his intellectual equal. And perhaps she might be pretty, too.
There is an instant attraction between Verity and the baron. The duke perceives it and, as is his custom, he asks Wembly to dine at Grosvenor Square. That dinner, and a certain broiled cod that went round the table, will spark a flurry of gossip and innuendo that settles over London and even goes so far as to wend its way to the palace.
With all of society wondering what in the world goes on between these two people, perhaps the two people in question had better figure that out.
Note: This series is part of Dragonblade's Sweet Dreams line, so this is a sweet, wholesome Historical Romance where passion beyond the bedroom door is left to the reader's imagination.
