A Jolly Little Scandal — Tabetha Waite

Lady Araminta Bevelstroke only wanted one thing from society, and that was to be recognized as an independent woman. Together with her three sisters, following the death of their father, the Duke of Marlington, she embarks on a journey to London to prove just that. Marriage certainly hadn't been on her mind, but when a handsome earl begins to pay court to her, she has to wonder if this could be the true venture she might wish to embark on.  Greyson Hartfield, the Earl of Somers, wasn't sure what made Araminta different from all the other women he'd known, but when he made up his mind that she was going to be his future wife the instant he'd spied her at the theatre, nothing could shake it loose—even if the lady was particularly resistant to the idea. However, he wasn't a rake for no reason and as the Christmas season steadily draws closer, he is determined to gain her as his holiday bride. But can he win her heart without risking everything?
