Lady Charlotte Louisa Aveton knows exactly how to navigate London society, including how to bend its rules when necessary. But after a scandal leaves her with one summer to secure a husband, Charlotte takes matters into her own hands and gathers a tempting collection of eligible bachelors at a country estate. The one man she cannot seem to stop noticing, however, is the Duke of Warrick, the man who once came dangerously close to breaking her heart.
The Vibe
Charlotte is clever, spirited, independent, and entirely unwilling to let society dictate the shape of her future. With a summer house party full of potential husbands, she should have plenty of options, but her attention keeps returning to the one man who was never supposed to be a suitor.
Wolfgang, Duke of Warrick, is Charlotte's brother's best friend and a decidedly gruff presence in her marriage hunt. Their history gives every conversation an undercurrent of unresolved feeling, while forced proximity keeps putting them in each other's path.
Set against the elegance and social expectations of Regency England, the story combines witty dialogue, country-house matchmaking, romantic tension, and a heroine determined to make her own choices. Charlotte's parade of suitors adds plenty of humor and chaos, while the slow-building connection between Charlotte and Wolfgang brings the yearning.
Warm, witty, and irresistibly romantic, Just for the Season is a sparkling historical romance for readers who love second chances, starchy heroes with softer hearts, and chemistry that refuses to stay in the past.
