She needed a plan. What she found was a marquis...

Lady Evie Windham has a secret to keep, and a wedding night would ruin everything. She's determined to avoid marriage as long as possible, but with her parents pushing potential partners her way from every direction, she needs a miracle. When she meets Lucas Denning, the newly titled Marquis of Deene, Evie knows he could be the answer.

Lucas Denning has a secret of his own, and he's finding it harder and harder to ward off the ladies who seem to think him a suitable husband. He doesn't think they'd be so keen if they knew of the gambling debts he inherited and can't repay.

When Lady Eve suggests that they could be each other's decoy, it seems like the perfect way to keep all eyes off of him for a while. What he didn't expect was the steamy kiss that no one was supposed to see, and that he never saw coming...

pretty good, not my favorite of the series. Great ending, great characters, not so sure about the plot. ( )

This one was weaker for me than usual from this author. The drama was all really superficial problems that the characters could have resolved with a couple conversations, but instead let unravel their lives and chance at happiness. I struggled to be engaged in the story, and toward the end I was just ready for things to wrap up already. ( )

Not my favorite of the Windham books to be honest. But still better than the Bridgerton series. ( )

Did not finish.

Felt like I was missing a huge chunk of information regarding Lucas's hatred of his brother-in-law.

Also, really disliked the way the author had her characters handle Eve's PTSD - not so much from the riding accident, but from the rape, which in the first two thirds or three quarters of the book at least, is never referred to as a rape. It's possible she brought it to a reasonable conclusion, but she lost we before she got there. The name of the book - labeling Eve's behavior, rape, and accident as an "indiscretion" seems really badly done. ( )
