Publisher Description
With a longing for adventure, the last thing Phillipa Peppiwell wants is to marry. After a past betrayal, she is wary when she unwittingly catches the attention of roguishly handsome—and sinfully tempting—Lord Anthony Thornton. Forbidden desires she secretly yearns for threaten to crumble her icy facade and reveal a scandal best kept buried.
Dissatisfied with his empty life, Lord Anthony seeks a deep and lasting connection...and finds himself intrigued by the Ice Maiden of the haute monde. Undaunted by Phillipa's aloof nature and her distaste for the idea of matrimony, he sets out to thaw the bewitching beauty by proving to her that adventure doesn't have to end at the altar. But he, too, hides a scandalous secret...one that could tear them apart if discovered.

Lovely 🥰
Very good read.
The Irresistible Miss Peppiwell
Did not like this book. The Hero, Anthony, is a sexual predator who after much pushing seduces the innocent Miss Peppiwell into his bed. The story tried to make it okay because he was thinking he would marry her. In one scene, he rescues her from being raped and then was angry with her and blamed her for being out alone (victim blame). He offers no comfort or support but instead takes her to his bed and has sex with her in every way. Of course, she loves it! Then the story continues and they are in love as if having sex leads to love.
This is the kind of story that sends women back to the dark ages!
Interesting love story
This story was good from the start to the end. I have family all over the USA and maybe some other places.
