Always a Maiden — Katy Madison

Lady Susanah Poole is everything a gentleman should want in a bride. She's pretty enough, the heir to her father's considerable estate, and she's perfectly behaved. Except she keeps losing her suitors one right after another to the Belles of Beak Street. When a completely unacceptable rake catches her in a rare fit of pique and suggests he could teach her what the belles have, she is determined to do whatever it takes to land a lord before her exasperated father forces her to marry an old man -- even if it means accepting the guidance of a notorious womanizer.

The last thing Evan Cooper expects is for the rigidly proper Lady Susanah to accept his off-the-cuff offer to teach her about passion. While she is not in his usual vein of bored widows or neglected wives, he is intrigued by her. But she makes it perfectly clear, while she may welcome his kisses, she'll never accept his proposal -- not that he has any plan to marry…or fall in love for that matter.
