To Kiss a Knight
Book 2 of the Best Laid Plans series
280 pages · First published 2025
In Bath in 1813, Vivienne Poppy runs away from an unwanted marriage and plans to support herself by writing under the pseudonym Lady Larkby. Her scheme develops a serious complication when she learns that the supposedly extinct Larkby title belongs to newly knighted Yeoman of the Guard Sir Sebastian Larkby, who is understandably surprised to discover a woman publicly using his family name. Exposing Vivienne’s identity would end her independence and devastate Sebastian’s dying grandmother, so the pair agree to pretend they are married. Scandal, danger, and increasingly inconvenient attraction turn the false marriage into a Regency adventure neither of them included in the plan.
