This is a Regency historical from the "New York Times" bestselling author, Eloisa James, bound to delight Heyer fans. If you kiss a man once...Miss Annabel Essex, the most unattainable of the four beautiful Essex sisters, decided long ago that if you kissed a man just once, you were probably safe. But when the dashing Earl of Ardmore tempts her with the promise of a kiss - and more - she resists, just as she snubs his teasing offers of marriage. For what would she get if she married him? Why, nothing but a faded Scottish title and a hovel in the highlands. But after a moment of passionate madness Annabel finds herself in a compromising position with Ardmore, and the choice is clear - marriage or disgrace. What cruel twist of fate put Miss Annabel Essex in a carriage on her way to Scotland (the place she abhors) with a penniless Earl, and all the world thinking they're man and wife? Not to mention the game of words started by the Earl - in which the prize is a kiss. And the forfeit! Well. They are almost married, after all! When she gets there though - contrary to what she had been lead to believe - she finds the hovel to be a castle and her Earl far from impoverished. And she learns - in the bridal bedchamber and elsewhere - that there is more to marriage than just kissing!

Review:
Praise for Kiss Me Annabel: 'Vintage James. Every exchange showcases the author's subtle wit, and not one of the encounters between the book's well-matched protagonists! lacks for passion.' Publishers Weekly
From the Back Cover:

The rules of marriage . . . according to Miss Annabel Essex

A husband must be:

Rich.

Make that very rich. She's had enough of leaky roofs and thread-worn clothing.

English.

London is the center of the civilized world, and Annabel has a passion for silk and hot water.

Amiable.

Good-looking would be nice, but not necessary. Same for intelligent.

Isn't she lucky? She's found just the man! And her chosen spouse is nothing like the impoverished Scottish Earl of Ardmore, who has nothing but his gorgeous eyes, his brain--and his kisses--to recommend him.

So what cruel twist of fate put her in a carriage on her way to Scotland with just that impoverished earl and all the world thinking they're man and wife? Sleeping in the same bed? Not to mention the game of words started by the earl--in which the prize is a kiss. And the forfeit . . .

Well. They are almost married, after all!
