The Bluestocking's Bargain ebook Pre-Order

Patience Carruthers is a bluestocking with no interest in marriage, much less the fleeting uncertainty of love. Her passion is for books, knowledge, and the improvement of the world. When she learns of Mrs. Oliver’s work, instructing ladies in intimate matters to better their marriages, she is resolved to see that volume published—and will even accept an agreement to wed a notorious rake to see that accomplished.

Thanks to his uncle’s reckless wager, Arthur Beckham has immediate need of a wife. Insisting he has an understanding with Miss Carruthers, a lady of good sense and practicality, may provide an escape the unfortunate match his uncle has tried to arrange–assuming the lady in question is agreeable. He proposes a marriage of convenience to Miss Carruthers, vowing he will do whatever she desires in exchange for one son.

Arthur does not anticipate the lady’s scheme to publish a book, much less his bride’s apparent need to verify every detail of the remarkable volume’s amorous advice. He does not anticipate that he will be seduced and enchanted by his new wife—much less that he will lose his heart completely. Can Arthur convince Patience of the merit of love and convince her to make their marriage more than an arrangement?
