New York Times bestselling author Cathy Maxwell’s classic romance Married in Haste is a fan-favorite marriage-of-convenience tale that resonates with unforgettable passion and love.

Brenn Owens, The Earl of Merton, has come to London to choose a bride. A sexy war hero, he has his pick of the season’s debutantes, and once he spies beautiful Tess Hamilton no other will do.

But Tess has a dark secret she’s desperate to hide—she has no choice but to marry quickly before her family’s ruin becomes grist for the gossip mill. She accepts Brenn’s sudden proposal without telling him the truth, but can she really marry him without feeling she’s betrayed him—especially when he offers ecstasy beyond her wildest dreams? And will he see her subterfuge as a lie?

Cathy Maxwell’s Married in Haste is a historical romance to fall in love with.

While the book was a nice read, it focussed too heavily on the miscommunication / lies, which went on for far too long imo. They only clear the air towarda the end?? it's simply unrealistic that both parties could hold onto the ruse for so long. The author gravely underestimated how 'in-everyones-business' the regency era was. FL's lack of fortune and ML's ruined estate would have been widely knownn; therefore, the whole premise is shaky (ntm a scandal of such minor degree would not hinder proposals for a girl so rich in wealth, pedigree and beauty). ALSO, this book was less love and more lust - it's not a shortcoming if that's the author's style but it seemed contrary to what she was trying to portray as eternal love when they barely had any real conversations. finally, i hate how they let the brother and sister-in-law get away with absolutely no consequences (ugh)


but the silver lining was the FL's writing (loved how she incorporated Welsh folklore; as an Indian, it always warms my heart seeing native culture being embraced) + the way her achivements along with the ML"s where highlighted in the end through a factual narration was super cool.

okay-ish but better towards the last act
