He rescues the runaway bride. She steals the scoundrel's heart.
Evelyn Sparrow is a celebrated art conservator at the National Gallery in London. It's an unprecedented position for a woman, and the life she has built is a dream come true. But she's been harboring a secret: not only is she the daughter of a baron, but she's betrothed to a much older and terrifying earl. Her dream life will end the moment they marry. At their wedding, and with nothing to lose, Evelyn does the unthinkable-and runs from the altar.
Ollie McNab has skated through life on the coattails of his brothers' hard work, as well as his own good looks and charm. When he makes a major error at their pub, The Harp & Thistle, he realizes how little his brothers respect him. Previously tasked with overseeing the restoration of one brother's prized art collection, Ollie is determined to prove his dependability by seeing it through. It doesn't hurt, either, that the paintings are being restored by the beautiful and intelligent Miss Sparrow, who fascinates him endlessly. So when she shows up unexpectedly at his pub in a soaking-wet wedding dress, he promises to do everything he can to help her.
With nowhere else to go, Ollie offers Evelyn a room at his home. Naturally, Ollie's brothers are not happy with this improper arrangement, and Evelyn's family is tearing apart London to find her. But when a painting under their care is stolen by a famous thief, Evelyn and Ollie must find it before anyone realizes it's gone, or the final thread of their reputations are destroyed.
That is, if they don't create their own scandalous trouble first.
