Sophie Wembley is about to discover two hard truths: When planning a rushed betrothal, one must not be picky; and when the perfect earl happens by, one must not be shy....
After receiving word that her sister has eloped, even ever-optimistic Sophie has trouble staying positive.

Evan has always kept acquaintances at arm's length for self-preservation, but there's something irresistible about Sophie...and her seductive charms may well sway the confirmed bachelor to seize a chance at love.
