The Gentleman Was Right - The Greydon Series, #2

Once relentlessly cheerful, Edward has been a tad peevish lately. Traveling to his brother's cottage is meant to prove his usefulness to the earldom and restore his good humor. Upon arrival, he discovers two unexpected houseguests pretending to be his cousins and immediately finds himself wanting to help. Offering to marry the oldest might be impulsive, but it feels right in a way nothing else does.
Is the craziest thing he's ever done also the smartest? Fleeing an unwanted betrothal to a man she used to love, Violet is not prepared for Edward's offer of marriage. Determined to solve her own problems, she declines, but holding onto her resolve is more difficult than she anticipates. The chemistry she shares with Edward is shockingly intense and his patience and kindness are unwavering. Can she trust her own judgment enough to trust him with her heart? The Gentleman Was Right is the second in the Greydon series.
While it can be read as a standalone, Edward is a prominent secondary character in The Earl Was Wrong and readers may appreciate meeting him in that story first.
