Amor con amor se paga

Lady Philippa Marbury is... weird. Despite being the daughter of a marquis, she is more interested in books than dances, science than enjoying the season, her laboratory than her love. The brilliant young woman burns with the desire to marry her simpleton fiancé and spend the rest of her life in peace, surrounded by her dogs and her scientific experiments, but before that happens she has fourteen days ahead of her to investigate the most mysterious and exciting parts of married life. To satisfy her thirst for knowledge, she needs a guide to help her, someone familiar with the darkest corners of London. She needs... a scoundrel. She needs Cross, the smart owner of one of the most exclusive gaming clubs in town. The man with the perfect reputation to reveal the wicked side of life. Reputations often hide secrets, however, and when the singular Pippa asks him to tutor her, Cross must muster all her willpower to resist and not offer the lady much more than he's asking for.
