Ruined by the Earl — Ruth Ann Nordin

After losing all of his money in a reckless bet, Logan Breckman, the Earl of Toplyn, needs to marry a lady from a wealthy familyâ€"and fast. So he does the only thing he can think of and picks one at random to trick into marriage.Unfortunately for Miss Melissa Jasper, she happens to be in the right place at the wrong time. Before she knows it, he comes up to her carriage and kisses her…and she is doomed. Now she can't marry the gentleman she was hoping to and she's bound to a cad who thinks of little else but himself.Logan is the first to admit he's far from perfect, but being with a gentleman who knows how to ignite a passionate spark is a lot better than being stuck with one who'll put a lady to sleep. Of course, she won't thank him for forcing her hand in marriage yet. But he has no doubt that sooner or later, she'll come to understand he's the best thing that's ever happened to her.
