A convenient marriage

That could help them both!

Jasper Patterdale may be an earl’s estranged younger son, but his efforts to help his brother have backfired, landing him in trouble. He’s out of options when feisty stranger Penelope Brinsley offers him a lifeline—she’ll pay off his debts if he’ll marry her so she can gain control of her family business. It’s a practical match on paper…until an inconvenient desire to share the marriage bed changes their deal completely!
