Lady Christiana Neverhartt is accustomed to getting her own way. Some days she fully believes she should have been born a princess. When her spoiled behavior lands her in trouble she has to rely on the one man she cannot abide to save her…Sutton Brooks, the Marquess of Foxworth.

The last thing Sutton wants is to rescue a strong-willed lady from her own mistakes, but he steps in to protect her. Unfortunately, the only way to properly do so is to marry her. Something the lady is adamantly against so he does the one thing sure to gain her acquiesce…he dares her.

The marriage starts out with them each battling for control, and one dare leads to another until they’re both begging for mercy. Their stubbornness might be their undoing, but their love might be their salvation if they’re willing to accept it and find their way toward each other instead of a permanent separation.
