A Deal with a Debutante

A Deal with a Debutante follows independent American heiress Calliope Hart as she is dragged into the high-stakes world of London society by a mother determined to secure a noble title. Crowned "the debutante of the season" back in New York, Calliope is resolved to resist the marriage mart—until she crosses paths with Edward Chase, the Earl of Hayward. Facing financial ruin, Edward needs an heiress to save his estate, but when Calliope flatly rejects his initial proposal, he proposes a compromise: he will guide her through all the sights of London she longs to explore if she agrees to visit his estate and reconsider their match. As their tour turns into a close-proximity alliance, their strict business deal quickly gives way to genuine affection, forcing both to decide if they can trust each other beyond titles and money. Readers who love sweet, clean Regency and Victorian-era romances filled with playful banter, fish-out-of-water tropes, and fake dating will thoroughly enjoy this book. With its blend of an independent heroine, a swoon-worthy earl, and rich historical London scenery, it is a perfect pick for fans of clean marriage of convenience stories and classic Gilded Age meets British aristocracy romance.
