Ethan Silverton, the Lord of Edon, is very content with his life. Hes carefully sculpted it so that everyone thinks hes a notorious rake. For years, hes worked hard to build his reputation to secure his place as the most undesirable bachelor in London. And its worked. No decent lady will have him.But one simple error in judgment has just sealed his fate. His intention was to dissuade a horrid mother from matching him up with her equally horrid daughter. Seeing no one but Lady Catherine without a dance partner, he tells a lie. He approaches Lady Catherine as if they are betrothed, and the ploy works. The horrid mother and her daughter abandon their pursuit of him.Except Ethans mother spies his ploy and is so relieved that shes found a way to marry him to a reputable young lady that she tells everyone of their engagement. To his horror, word spreads and its his duty to see the lie through. This is the worst thing that can happen, and no one but his mother is happy about it. Not Lady Catherine. Not her doting father. Not even Ethan. But his mother is sure itll all work outeventually.
