All of London knows Eleanor has a temper, and she’s about to lose it. Her father expects her marriage to be advantageous—for him. It’s that or a French nunnery, complete with cold baths and spiders.

And the first step is to travel to London to find a nice, placid wife. He crosses paths, and wits, with a viscount’s daughter who’s always ready to spit thorns. But Jesper soon realizes that Eleanor Henry is in more trouble than she knows.
