Confirmed bachelor Anthony Malory is spellbound when he meets Roslynn Chadwick for the first time. The beautiful Scottish heiress is looking for a quick marriage to protect her from her nasty cousin who wants her inheritance. Tony convinces Roslynn that he will help her find a husband among London's eligible bachelors. But Tony's plan is to discredit each man Roslynn asks him about and make Roslynn his mistress. Roslynn is fascinated with Tony, but knows the handsome rogue is not husband material. Yet she is drawn to Tony over all of the single men she meets in London...and time is running out.

I first read this book 20 years ago and remember thoroughly enjoying it. This time around I was a little miffed at Roslynn's stubborn attitude against Tony. I had a hard time with her not believing him at every turn. I liked Tony, but felt the whole book could have been wrapped up quickly if he and Roslynn had actually talked about their misunderstandings. The highlight of the book is Tony's conversations with his brother, James, and nephew, Jeremy. Priceless. My rating: 4 Stars.
