The Wallflower Wager

Lady Penelope Campion would rather stay home with her rescued animals than face London society. When her new neighbour, the ruthless businessman Gabriel Duke, demands she clear out the animals so he can sell his house, Penny strikes a bargain: she will rehome them if he can find each one a loving home. As he struggles to place a two-legged dog, a foul-mouthed parrot and a menagerie of other strays, the cold businessman and the shy spinster are thrown together, and both must reckon with old wounds.
