Anything but a gentleman

Enjoy a romantic story about a spirited heroine and a Scottish laird, neither of whom plans to marry, let alone fall in love.

After the Honourable Miss Clara Vetry’s London season ends in a complete fiasco, a desperate Clara boards a carriage waiting for a hired housekeeper and lets it take her all the way to Scotland.
Caelan, the laird of CaerLaven Castle, is a widower who has no intention of marrying again – least of all for love. However, the moment he lays eyes on his new housekeeper, he changes his mind. Marrying the charming bookworm suddenly seems like the perfect solution to his problems.
Clara rejects his proposal, and continues to do so despite Caelan’s persistent efforts. Her complete lack of household skills soon gives away the fact that she is merely posing as a housekeeper. Yet, Caelan’s interest in her only grows. In the end, circumstances lead them not just to the altar, but to the very love they both longed for, even if they refused to admit it.
