The Rake's Accidental Marriage
(2026)(The third book in the Reformed Rakes series)
A novel by Kelsey Swanson
He married her to save her reputation…never expecting that she would save him.
As one of the infamous Rank of Rakes, seduction comes easily to Pearce Brinley—but love has always been forbidden. A curse has haunted his family for generations, stealing everyone he's ever held dear. Pearce has wanted Clara Poole for far too long, yet keeping his best friend's much younger sister at arm's length has always been the only way to protect her...and himself.
Until one innocent mistake leaves them hopelessly compromised.
To preserve Clara's reputation, Pearce does the one thing he swore he never would—make her his wife. Sharing his name is one thing. Sharing stolen glances across the breakfast table, lingering touches that leave them both breathless, and nights beneath the same roof while denying the desire burning between them is quite another.
Clara is no longer the starry-eyed girl Pearce insists on seeing. She is a woman who refuses to be coddled—or kept at a distance. With a fearless spirit and an unfortunate talent for finding trouble, she is determined to prove she is her new husband’s equal. And, if he insists on keeping his heart locked away, she’ll simply have to steal the key.
But how can she convince a man who believes his love will destroy her? And that the greatest risk of all is walking away from the only woman who can save him?
