The Earl's Runaway Bride - A Wallflower's Wish, #6

Is she making a deal with the devil or a saint in disguise? A murderer, they call him. A beast. All Miss Rathmore knows is he's the man who saved her while running away from her horrid fiancé. The least she can do is help Darling and his sisters adapt to good society. After all, the earl has gone so far as to offer his own hand in marriage to save her reputation. But that is merely an act of charity.
And those stolen kisses? Those are sheer folly. For only a fool would fall for such a sandalous rogue... Society is more dangerous than a battlefield for this soldier who was never meant to be an earl. Luckily for him, his new savior is every bit the lady. Give him a battle any day. Those were rules he understood. But the insipid whisperings of the ton? He hadn't the faintest idea how to fight them.
Until he meets Miss Rathmore. Now he's found himself slaying her dragons when he ought to be fighting for his own good name. And proposing marriage? What was he thinking? His three sisters would say that he'd lost his senses, of course. Or, at the very least...his heart.  NOTE: This novella was formerly titled Earl of Darling when it was part of the Wicked Earls' Club series.
