How The Wallflower Was Won by Eva Leigh

 

USA TODAY bestselling author Eva Leigh continues her Last Chance Scoundrels series with a steamy romance between two opposites--a rogue with a taste for wagers and a bookish wallflower--who marry for convenience... but neither bet on falling in love.

Finn Ransome is an expert on Lady Luck, which is why he refuses to take a chance on love. Experience has taught him that he's happier at a gaming table than around people he will, inevitably, disappoint. However, the clock is ticking on his father's matrimonial demands. But the only woman to catch his eye is a bluestocking who would never consider a rogue like him.

After a disastrous first Season, Tabitha Seaton decided to focus on books instead of ballrooms. She hopes to join the Sterling Society, a collective of the most brilliant, influential minds in London. Except, they will never admit an unmarried lady. Now Tabitha needs a husband, and a notorious, handsome gambler may be her best bet.

Finn and Tabitha are opposites who have no intention of wagering on a love match, and a calculated marriage of convenience solves all their problems--with no risk to their hearts. Once married, however, their potent attraction boils over into a deep passion that neither expected. When a painful mistake drives the new lovers apart, Finn will risk it all to prove a scoundrel and a wallflower are a winning pair...

My Review

How the Wallflower was Won by Eva Leigh
My rating: 5 of 5 stars  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I love Finn and Tabitha! I loved their chemistry. It was there from the beginning it just took them a while to finally acknowledge it. The way they supported each other was beautiful.
I can't wait for Dom's book!

Finn and Dom still need to fulfill their families' condition of marriage but Finn is not ready to take a chance on love. He prefers to spend his time at the gaming tables, so he focuses on helping Dom. Dom makes one request, something opposite of his ex-fiance Willa.

Finn has the perfect woman in mind lady Tabitha Seaton. After an unsuccessful first season, she focused on books in the hopes of joining the Sterling Society, a group of London's influential minds. When she approaches the group they tell her that they'd never let an unmarried woman join them, so now she needs a husband.

So when Finn approaches her to arrange an agreement between her and Dom, she agrees. But when Dom suddenly backs out Finn steps up in order to solve both of their problems. Never once expecting to fall in love with each other.

Thank you so much to the author, Avon/Harper, and NetGalley for this ARC to review.
