Your presence is requested at romantic Twill Castle for the wedding of Miss Clio Whitmore and... and... ? After eight years of waiting for Piers Brandon, the wandering Marquess of Granville, to set a wedding date, Clio Whitmore has had enough. She's inherited a castle, scraped together some pride, and made plans to break her engagement. Not if Rafe Brandon can help it. A ruthless prizefighter and notorious rake, Rafe is determined that Clio will marry his brother—even if he has to plan the dratted wedding himself. So how does a hardened fighter cure a reluctant bride's cold feet? ● He starts with flowers. A wedding can't have too many flowers. Or harps. Or cakes. ● He lets her know she'll make a beautiful, desirable bride—and tries not to picture her as his. ● He doesn't kiss her. ● If he kisses her, he definitely doesn't kiss her again. ● When all else fails, he puts her in a stunning gown. And vows not to be nearby when the gown comes off. ● And no matter what—he doesn't fall in disastrous, hopeless love with the one woman he can never call his own.
