An enjoyable read. Duke Jasper is keen to avoid the clutches of young ladies when he returns to society events. He needs a wife but wants to focus on finding who was responsible for the death of his sister. Lady Marina is desperate to escape from her embarrassing mother. When Marina learns that Jasper is looking for a wife, she takes action and meets him outside the ball to suggest a marriage of convenience. After a discussion, they both see that there are advantages to the arrangement and agree to marry. At first they both try to keep to their agreed rules but Marina wants more to their relationship. Jasper focuses on finding the culprit, even if it brings danger. When danger threatens Marina as well as Jasper, he realises where his main efforts should be. Will Jasper learn who killed his sister? Will Jasper realise how important Marina is to himself and to the Dukedom? Will Marina finally be able to find happiness? The story is well written.

This really is an enjoyable read, from the start to the end. You get intrigued from the opening chapter of Marina being embarrassed by her mother at a ball, and it gets more depth in the second chapter. And it just gets better. I really like these stories with several inter-twined story lines; yes the developing love story is good, but so are the other threads, and together they work really well. Sally writes most believably, and the decisions the characters make are done with reasons that can be understood. This is a well balanced read, and although of course the love ending is inevitable and fully expected, how to get to that happy place is very inventive. Thank you.
