Book #1

Miss Tiffany Deveraux is more than just a bluestocking, she's a
financial genius hiding behind the plain façade of an orphaned
ward. Society sees a penniless, unremarkable girl under the Earl of
Marlowe's care, and Tiffany intends to keep it that way. Her quiet
fortune, earned through sharp wit and savvy investments, is a
secret she'll protect at all costs. Because the only way to know if a
man truly loves her... is if he believes she has nothing to offer but
her heart. Slade Ware, Marquess of Wolfarth, has the Midas touch, or so the ton
believes. Lauded as a brilliant investor, his success is largely luck, and that luck
may have just run out. When he learns of Tiffany's hidden talents and growing
wealth, a marriage of convenience seems the ideal solution. She gains
protection. He gains stability. Simple. Logical. Unemotional. But emotions have
never followed logic. As friendship deepens and hidden wounds come to light,
what begins as a calculated match risks turning into something neither of them
anticipated. Because what Tiffany truly wants isn't his title or protection, it's his
heart. And that's the one thing Wolfarth swore he'd never give again. Includes
