A Madcap Arrangement When Richard Kendall sets out to trap a scoundrel by using the man's seemingly innocent cousin as bait, he's absolutely certain it's a brilliant plan—right up until Theodosia Smith turns his world delightfully upside down. This vexing, capable woman is nothing like the helpless pawn he expected, and as they navigate London's glittering social scene together, Richard finds himself drawn to her wit, strength, and surprising warmth. But his unwavering devotion to protecting his family's secrets could cost him the one person who's begun to matter more than duty, and Theodosia must decide if a guarded heart is worth fighting for.
