A redheaded bluestocking in desperate need of a wealthy husband.

A handsome duke looking for his perfect duchess.

And a dare that shows that opposites may not only attract but can be so much more.

Lady Tabitha Hampton has the memory of an elephant. But this talent fails to help the twenty-seven-year-old bluestocking attract the attention of a single wealthy suitor. With three sisters of marriageable age, a sickly father, and a series of bad investments that left them impoverished, Tabitha's marriage could save or ruin her entire family.

Arthur, the Duke of Collingford, needs a wife but not just any lady will do. Arthur's future duchess must be perfect in every way-fair of face, impeccable manners, with enough social influence to impact his parliamentary projects. When he joins the whirl of the London season, the duke finds an insufferable, redheaded wallflower instead.

Tabitha insists she can be the perfect duchess, if he'll only give her the chance. Arthur agrees to test her abilities, but she tests his control. And one taste of her lips is enough to make him question everything.

Opposites may attract, but can they cooperate? Or will they lose everything, including their hearts?

I’ve listened to many historical romances; I love CL’s style. I appreciated the leading lady’s assertiveness. I love their upfront honesty. Extremely refreshing. Thank You 😊

This heroine is interesting because she has a perfect memory. She can recall every detail of anything she’s read or seen. She uses that trait to make a deal with a rigid uptight Duke who’s looking for the perfect Duchess.
The minor characters are well written and the narrator is excellent.
I enjoyed watching the couple’s marriage of convenience, evolve into something more.

Not your usual wallflower
