Spinster Heiresses Novel (The Spinster Heiresses Book 2)

Once upon a time, there were three young ladies who, despite their fortunes, had been on the marriage mart a bit too long. They were known as "the Spinster Heiresses." Among them was Miss Cassandra Holwell, a woman perceived as too tall, too bookish, and too smart, yet blessed with wealth and a father who craved a grand title for her. Cassandra had not felt a desire to marry until she encountered the sinfully handsome Duke of Camberly, who captured her imagination, only to have Soren York, Earl of Dewsberry and her family's sworn enemy, step in the way.

The Holwells had ruined Soren's family, and he had lived on the knife's edge, struggling to resurrect their fortunes, until he considered marrying the Holwell Heiress. Not only would her dowry provide the funds he needed, but he had also secretly had an eye on the independent-minded bluestocking since they both first realized the differences between men and women. Cassandra liked to read, while Soren had no patience for books; she knew little of sex, whereas he was a man of the world and willing to school her. Their families were sworn enemies, yet his offer of marriage might be her only salvation.

Now, Cassandra and Soren must learn to love each other for who they are, not what they are, and the lessons are becoming an exercise in absolute pleasure. She was too tall, too bookish, and too smart, but Cassandra possessed both money and a father who yearned for a grand title for her. Until she met the Duke of Camberly, she had not felt a desire to marry, but then Soren York, the Earl of Dewsberry and her family's sworn enemy, stepped in the way.
