An Enchantress for an Earl by Arietta Richmond

Arryn Carrington, the Earl of Merryfield, is obsessive about truth and honesty. It’s an obsession that has just led to him being sent down from Oxford, which has put his father, the Marquess of Westerhazy, in a rather difficult position. Arryn has vowed to put things right, somehow, but when his father suggests that finding a young woman to marry would be a good start, Arryn flinches from the very idea. He has never met a woman with a true thought in her head – until he is introduced to Lady Violet Gardenbrook, whose every utterance upends his view of the world.

Lady Violet Gardenbrook values books and study above all else – and the thought that a man, who has the privilege to study at Oxford would do something to get himself sent down horrifies her. A man who would do such a thing is obviously irredeemable. Why then, does she find herself steadily more intrigued by Lord Merryfield?
When Lady Violet accidentally overhears a very private conversation, she becomes embroiled in a treasonous plot which threatens Lord Merryfield and his family, unbeknownst to him.
Can Lady Violet discover enough for the plot to be foiled?
Can Arryn uncover the truth of the threat, before his sister is ruined?
And, when an impetuous act puts Lady Violet in terrible danger, will he reach her in time to save her?
Through all of it, will they each find the courage to move past their prejudices, and admit the love they feel, or will everything they have every hoped for be lost?
