Ten Rules for Loving the Wrong Rake
(2026)(A book in the Wicked Windows League series)
A novel by Mihwa Lee
She came to claim her inheritance. He insisted on claiming her hand.
Kit Harris hides in plain sight as groundskeeper of a sleepy country manor, a sanctuary paid for in secrets. He has no patience for the polite society, less for London ladies, and none at all for the bright-eyed niece who's come to play lady of the house.
Lady Audrey Kendal has spent her whole life being managed. Widowed at last, mistress of a crumbling estate, she means to live on her own terms. Until a relative contests the inheritance. A frail widow, he claims, cannot manage an estate alone. The remedy? A respectable husband. Obviously.
Unfortunately for her, the only man within reach is the insufferable groundskeeper.
For him, letting a stranger marry her means letting a stranger near his past. So Kit proposes himself, and refuses to be denied.
As scandal gathers and the past closes in, the wrong man begins to look like the only one worth fighting for.
