True romantics and fans of historical series will want to add this to their list - especially those who enjoy stories where the hero and heroine truly earn their happily ever after.
Who May Not Like This Book:
If you’re not a fan of misunderstandings dragging on or heroines who can hold a grudge, you might find yourself getting impatient. Some readers found the plot predictable, wished for more action instead of extended angst, or didn’t enjoy the stubbornness of the characters. And if you dislike the trope where the main characters are manipulated into a romance via a secret or deception, this might not work for you.

From The Publisher:
He Had to Marry Her Everyone in London agrees the Byrons are just as "mad, bad, and dangerous to know" as their poetic non-relation. But Lord Jack Byron is facing a predicament that is scandalous .
. . even for him! Marry a young woman because he lost a bet? Unreformed rake Lord Jack Byron would do anything to get out of it. But the rich merchant who holds his debt insists Jack lead his on-the-shelf daughter to the altar .
. . and make her believe it's a love match. With no options, Jack agrees, thinking he'll be shackled to a closed-in spinster. But Grace Danvers is no milk-and-water miss. When he first encounters her in a London bookstore, Jack is struck by her tempting sensuality and soon becomes determined to bed—and wed—her (in that order!).
Yet though he plans to seduce her with his touch, he never dreams he'll also want to win her with his love.
