First Comes Courtship

She's naughty. He's nice. But he's willing to change his ways.It's his pleasure to please her.Liam Fletcher, Viscount Norton didn't mean to ruin Miss Cora Eastwood. (He used to be a vicar, for goodness sake!) He'd meant to test the theory in the Duke of Clearford's Guide to Courtship that kissing reveals the heart. The theory—true. The outcome? Compromised. Not a good beginning, but he's determined to please the passionate lady he now calls wife in every way he can.If he can find her.It's her desire to desert him.Who needs a husband when there's erotic poetry to write! Cora is determined to prove that sentiment true as she bounces from house party to house party, always fleeing before Liam catches up to her. But when he finally hunts her down, he makes an excellent argument for trying something new—a truce of passion, just her and him and an empty house in the country.It takes two to heal a marriage, and if the pessimistic bluestocking and jolly former vicar can see eye to eye, they might also help each other heal their broken hearts.
