Romancing the Rake by Nichole Van
Lady Sophronia Sorrow considers herself an unlikely heroine. Why, just her name alone proves this. Sophronia Sorrow is the name of a simpering miss from a gothic penny novel—the foolish girl who falls prey to a rake and becomes an object lesson for the true heroine to avoid. No, despite her mawkish name, Sophie refuses to spend her life invisible and unwanted, relegated to the margin of the text, never belonging. If only she could uncover the identity of her natural father, perhaps she would belong there?

But one thing Sophie knows for sure—unlike that foolhardy miss in a novel, she will not succumb to a rake. No matter how thoroughly Lord Rafe Gilbert may tempt her.

Lord Rafe Gilbert longs for freedom—freedom from his controlling father, freedom to live his life as he chooses. He knows playing the rake pleases his father, but he longs to determine his own destiny. Case in point, he fell in love with Lady Sophie years ago, but his father’s threats prevent him from pursuing her in earnest. So when Fate thrusts Sophie into his path, Rafe struggles to turn her away. But given the menace hanging over his head, he has no other choice, doesn’t he?

Spanning years and ranging from London ballrooms to a castle in the Scottish Highlands, can two kindred souls heal from past hurts and seize a second chance to write a love story of their own?
