Description

He wants to save Europe. She wants to save a foul-mouthed parrot. Marriage wasn't on their incompatible minds—until they realized they each had what the other needed...Blake Montague's one desire is to return to war on the Continent, where he hopes his exceptional skill at decoding French communications will help break Napoleon's stranglehold on Europe. But without his family's support, he lacks the funds to buy a commission. Bored, he unleashes his frustration by dueling and occasionally risking his life rescuing stolen parrots and mad maidens. His only hope is a marriage of convenience. Not surprisingly, wealthy women who want to send a husband to war are in short supply—until he meets Jocelyn Carrington, a laughing Venus more interested in his house than him...Jocelyn's one desire is to reacquire her family's estate, which her despicable brother lost in a wager to Blake's father. Now, to win it back, she must wed the youngest Montague, a man with few visible social graces and an annoying habit of attracting trouble. Keeping her heroic future groom alive long enough to get him to the altar is challenging—and surprisingly enjoyable. Leading to a dilemma when she develops feelings for a man who might die tomorrow!
