Now, James isn't just doing it to be nice. She's mortified, but James takes one peek at the laughable advice in the book and offers to help her by giving lessons on what men actually want in a woman. She eventually gets caught with it by James, who she thinks is Agatha's estate agent.

Point is, he's got plenty of money and he needs to get married, but he's tired of all the ladies who only want him for his title.įate (who goes by the name Agatha Danbury) throws these two kids together and the results are a mostly adorable regency romance.Įlizabeth finds this book in Lady Danbury's library called How to Marry a Marquis and due to desperation, decides that it couldn't hurt to take a peek. However, he is also the Marquis of.nobodyfuckingcaresitisaromancenovel. He is unusually suited to this sort of work because he used to be a spy for the Crown.

Someone with enough money to take care of her and her younger siblings. This was really cute until the end when the back and forth between the hero and heroine became ridiculous.Įlizabeth is actively trying to find someone to marry.
