The Gentleman's Agreement - Paperback

by Lorin Grace (Author)

She thinks he's a pompous bore. He thinks she's impossibly stubborn. They're both wrong-and right.

The last person Isabel Godderidge expected to see at the ruins was Victor Dalrymple, and the last thing she wanted was for him to discover that she paints-brilliantly, passionately, secretly. The wealthy gentleman is only in the neighborhood long enough to improve his estate and move on.

Victor Dalrymple knows he's not what ladies dream of, especially Isabel. She's too tall. He's too short. She's too passionate. He's too proper. Yet all he wants is to get along with his neighbors and possibly make Pittsfield his permanent home.

When Isabel's family cannot host the harvest fair, Victor's estate becomes the only option to save the thirty-year tradition. As Victor and Isabel begin to understand each other, a rainstorm traps them in a pavilion. Alone. The vindictive Sir Lightwood catches them and demands a ransom to stay silent about their "ruin." Can they avoid blackmail and a scandal?

A Regency romance of scandal, secrets, and discovering that the one who sees your hidden heart might be exactly who you need.
