When a spinster ruined by scandal and a marquess with no plans for marriage meet at a pleasure club, there is only one rule: No falling in love
Ten years after a scandal ruined her reputation, Clare Handleton has stopped pretending to care about Society’s judgment. Branded ‘Scandalton,’ she embraces her freedom with sharp wit, hiding her hurt behind impeccable poise. But when she crosses paths with the dangerously charming Marquess of Trentham, the last thing she expects is temptation—or to offer him an irresistible proposition...meet her at a private London pleasure club.
Ashford Drake, Marquess of Trentham, has vowed never to marry. Cynical, rakish, and proudly untamed, he lives by one rule: pleasure without promises. So when his sister’s friend dares him to a no-strings affair, he agrees. She’s scandalous. He’s scandal-prone. It’s the perfect match…on paper.
Their arrangement is supposed to be simple: secret rendezvous, stolen kisses, and absolutely no feelings. But as their connection deepens beyond lust, the very emotions they swore to avoid begin to take root.
Can two people with everything to lose risk their hearts for a second chance at love?
Perfect for fans of Sarah MacLean and Kerrigan Byrne, The Marquess Move is a steamy, emotional Regency romance filled with sharp banter, slow-burn passion, and a scandalous affair that might just rewrite the rules of Society—and their hearts.
