The Lord and The Bluestocking

Everyone knows the Marquess of Hastings is decidedly odd. Nowadays, he would probably be described as being on the Asperger's Spectrum. He's good looking and rich, but his lack of social skills make it hard for him to find a much-needed wife.

He scandalizes the ton by putting an advertisement in the newspaper describing the type of spouse he requires and the marriage of convenience he envisages. Amazingly, he finds a suitable candidate. She's an impoverished gentlewoman with literary aspirations. But can this oddly-assorted couple possibly co-exist, let alone find happiness?

This novel is a gently amusing look at an unusual but endearing Regency couple.
