THE MARRIAGE LESSON [Mass Market Paperback] Alexander, Victoria

Marianne Shelton has studied everything from ancient Greek to botany — except the one subject she suddenly needs: how to catch a husband. Enter Thomas Effington, the Marquess of Helmsley, a notorious rake who agrees to tutor her in the art of seduction. What begins as a practical arrangement becomes increasingly impractical as lessons turn into something far more dangerous. Victoria Alexander delivers a witty Regency romp where the student might just teach the teacher a thing or two about desire. The banter crackles, the chemistry simmers, and both protagonists are smart enough to keep pace with each other — even when neither wants to admit what's really happening. Perfect for fans of Lisa Kleypas or anyone who believes the best love stories involve two people trying very hard not to fall.
