The Scholar's Key: A Regency Friends to Lovers Opposites Attract Historical Romance

A captivating lady. An unremarkable scholar. An education in seduction that sparks a revelation.

Lady Persephone Holloway must marry and her father is running out of patience. The man he chooses for her seems perfect - tall, dark, handsome, and titled. So why doesn't she feel that spark?

Mr. Noah Rowley, second son of an earl, finally knows what he wants. Life as a scholar of history, and Lady Percy. Only one, however, seems like a dream that might come true. For his unrequited love sees him as a friend, and he knows better than to ever wish for more.

Drawn together in Bath to solve the next clue of their treasure hunt, Percy convinces Noah to let her make him over to charm his way into recovering a stolen item. The biggest surprise, however, is her own reaction to Noah himself.

Will Noah leave Percy to her arranged marriage, or risk everything for his own happily ever after?

This is a friends-to-lovers, ugly-duckling-turned-swan, opposites-attract Regency romance featuring a plucky heroine and a secretly intriguing hero. The Reckless Rogues series is best read in order.
