Book #2

Book 1: The Duke's Meddlesome Matchmaker. When irritatingly handsome Montague Donovan, Marquess of Laidley, challeng-es Calliope Oliver to a painting contest, the stakes are high. If he wins, Calliope must marry him, and if Calliope wins, then she will gain the artistic recognition she's always craved--and knock the arrogant smirk off his face! Having unexpectedly become guardi-an to his orphaned nephew, Montague finds himself in need of a convenient wife--fast. As their competition reaches fever pitch, and he and silver-tongued Calliope bicker their way to attraction, it's more than the wager he stands to lose--but his heart too!
