An Unexpected Marriage with the Earl
(2024)(A book in the Noble Gentlemen of the Ton series)
A novel by Bridget Barton
Returning from a grand tour of Europe, Johanna Follett is full of hopes and expectations for the future. She has always lived life on her own terms, her heart set on botanical studies and exploring the world beyond Regency society's constraints. Yet, when an unintended encounter with the Earl of Beaumont thrusts her into a scandal she was not expecting, and with marriage being the only way to save her name, Johanna embarks on a match she neither courted nor desired...
Will she be able to reclaim her dreams amidst the suffocating scrutiny of the ton, or will she be forever trapped in her gilded cage?
Edmund Banfield, the Earl of Beaumont, never envisioned himself at the center of a scandal, but fate has a way of changing plans. Bound by duty and family expectations, he finds himself in a hastily arranged marriage with a woman who was brought into his life under the most unconventional circumstances. As he wrestles with his own insecurities and the demands of a new union, he struggles to balance the obligations of his title with the tumultuous emotions stirred by his new wife.
Can Edmund reconcile his deepest fears with the reality of his marriage, or will his personal battles jeopardize the love hesitantly blooming in his heart?
When a fresh scandal threatens to undo their efforts, Johanna and Edmund must confront their own doubts and learn to trust each other if they are to salvage their relationship and clear their names. Amidst the dazzling but fickle world of the ton, they must overcome the shadows cast by rumors, deceit, and external pressures and find a genuine connection. With the tongues of the ton wagging, the question of their true feelings for one another comes to the fore. Can their marriage survive, or will forces beyond their control put an end to the happiness they both so desire?
