A brash highlander and a prim bluestocking go undercover in London society as a married couple in this Regency romance by a USA Today bestseller. Quintus MacLachlann is arrogant—unapologetically so. When he’s asked to impersonate one half of a married couple to infiltrate Edinburgh society, he relishes the challenge of being “married” to the frustratingly willful yet beautiful Esme. Esme makes no bones about her fervent dislike of the dishonored rake. He’s the last person on earth she can conceive of marrying, sham or otherwise. But being forced to play wife to the handsome-as-sin wastrel brings up very real feelings of desire. . . . Praise for Highland Rogue, London Miss “The talented Moore has penned another exciting Regency. The narrative is rich, the dialogue authentic and the characters entertaining. This is a tale of how opposites attract and passions are stirred.” —RT Book Reviews
