The Wallflower's Absolutely Scandalous Seduction
(2024)(The first book in the Notorious Briarwoods series)
A novel by Eva Devon
Lady Hermia Briarwood loves being a wallflower.
Invisible to the ton, Hermia has made a habit of studying the mad antics of society, and few antics are madder than her own eccentric family's. Love them as she does, she wishes they all enjoyed a bit of quiet. Alas, they do not. Now, in her opinion, being a wallflower is far better than dancing with foolish fellows! Frankly, she can't wait until her required seasons are done, whereupon she can retire to the country and spend her life in blissful solitude. After an accidental encounter with the Earl of Drexel, he offers her everything she's ever dreamed of. A life alone.
But how can she possibly keep her sensible heart in check when he unleashes his charm and wounded soul upon her?
The Earl of Drexel must find a wife.
His family is the very devil. How could he bring anyone else into it? When he discovers Lady Hermia blending into the silk-covered walls at a ball, he cannot deny that she would make him the perfect wife as her only desire is to be left to her own devices. She will expect nothing of him. It's ideal. Quickly, he offers a marriage of convenience. All they have to do is make it to the wedding, then they both will be free! However, he never expects just how much he'll long to seduce his wallflower. Or how she will quite unexpectedly capture his heart. But he has sworn to never make the terrible mistake of naively believing in love.
Not when that love might break Hermia’s heart and destroy what is left of his soul.
Genre: Historical Romance
