Always the Rebel by Emily E K Murdoch

Always the rebel and never the bride – it’s down with men for this young lady…

Miss Sophia Worsley never expected to be left at the altar, but two broken engagements was enough. Never again will she allow herself to be that vulnerable. It’s time to rebel against all that society expects of her. Though even at three and twenty, she knew wearing breeches at Almack’s were probably too much…

If there is one man bored of life, it’s Philip Egerton, Earl of Marnmouth. He’s seen it all and nothing can surprise him – though the woman laying down a Royal Flush with a grin is certainly new. Ah, a challenge. Finally something for Philip to sink his teeth into – though that’s not what he wants to sink into the delectable Miss Sophia Worsley.
He’s determined to have her. She’s turned her back on men and matrimony. Passions ignite as two challengers circle each other looking for a weakness.

But the rebellious Sophia may just have the upper hand as Philip loses his heart faster than he could have predicted. Will this rebellion end in tears?
