Dear Lady Truelove,

My ward is certainly traveling me crazy. I must marry her off and get her out of my life. There’s just one problem…

When Jonathan Deverill promised a dying friend he’d be guardian to the man’s girl, he envisioned a woman in pigtails and pinafores, a child he could leave behind in a few finishing school. Issue is, his ward is truly a fully-grown, defiant beauty whose longing for romance threatens to make his guardianship a living hell.

New York heiress Marjorie McGann wants a London season and a titled husband who might help her spend the Yankee hundreds of thousands she’s inherited, and she thinks her brand-new British guardian may be the perfect person to help her find him. But Jonathan has no intention of allowing his friend’s lot of money become squandered. Under his watchful, defensive eye, Marjorie discovers romance hard to come by . until one fateful evening when her personal guardian’s devastating kisses makes her wonder if the best romance of most might be best before her.
