The Lady Takes All

What’s a shy lady to do when she prefers the company of plants?
When Lady Delia is tricked into attending a matchmaking house party on the outskirts of Bath, she’s determined to avoid the male guests, spending her time sketching the area’s local flora. That is, until a gentle rogue coaxes her from the rose bushes and down the garden path.
If this sporting lord hadn’t lost a horse race, he wouldn’t be at the blasted party!
Lord Rupert Perish has no intention of being coerced into making a match. He has a lady of interest in London, a stable of fine horses he adores, and his own country estate where he would rather be. Until an unusual female crosses his path and sparks his fancy.
Join Lady Delia and Lord Perish for a fortnight at a Regency country estate with dancing, dining, and unexpected desire in this steamy novella. When suddenly all eyes are on this wallflower, will she wilt or win the wager?
