Rhyme and Reason (Bexley-Smythe Quintet Book 2)

The Duke of Danby is matchmaking again.

No matter what his overbearing duke of a grandfather wants, Thomas Goddard has no intention of marrying a high-born lady. Heâ€™s the son of Danbyâ€™s by-blow, for heavenâ€™s sake, and no gentleman! When yet another letterâ€”complete with yet another marriage licenseâ€”arrives, Thomas does as any reasonable man would do. He rips the thing to shreds, tosses it over the cliffs, and curses Danbyâ€™s name. Regrettably, his shouted curse startles the very lady his grandfather intends for him to marry.

Because of her wayward brotherâ€™s numerous and repeated indiscretions, Lady Matilda Bexley-Smythe has just endured yet another Season on the receiving end of both salacious gossip and censorious glances. Sheâ€™s had all of London Society she can stand, so she intends to find a husband who is unconcerned about her brotherâ€™s neâ€™er-do-well behavior. She settles on the seemingly perfect choiceâ€”a gentleman unswayed by gossipâ€”but when Mattie finds herself being carried home in a handsome strangerâ€™s arms, her whole world unravels at the seams.
