Perfect for you if...

You enjoy historical romance with banter and tension that builds slowly into genuine connection.
You like stories where characters from vastly different worlds have to make their mismatched marriage work.
You want a sweet, faith-adjacent romance without heavy drama or explicit content.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer fast-paced romance with immediate chemistry and less focus on class differences.
You're looking for a gritty, complex take on historical life rather than an uplifting marriage-of-convenience story.
You want darker themes or morally grey characters rather than earnest, ultimately good-hearted protagonists.

About this book

A riding accident leaves socialite Caroline Turner stranded overnight with Duncan McKenna, the new stable manager, forcing them into an unexpected marriage. With her reputation damaged, Caroline sees marriage as her only option, though Duncan McKenna is not the husband she would have chosen. Despite his stubborn nature, Caroline finds herself drawn to the rugged Scotsman. Duncan had no intention of marrying a society woman—he left Boston and his family's fortune to escape that life. He expects Caroline to struggle with her new modest circumstances, but instead she proves determined to adapt. As Caroline and Duncan navigate their marriage of convenience, they discover whether they might be suited to each other after all.
