A BookBub Best Romance of Winter 2024!
Bookish suffragist Catriona Campbell is busy: An ailing estate, academic writers block, a tense time for Englands womens rights campaignthe last thing she needs is to be stuck playing host to her fathers distractingly attractive young colleague.
Deeply introverted Catriona lives for her work at Oxford and her fight for womens suffrage. She dreams of romance, too, but since all her attempts at love have ended badly, she now keeps her desires firmly locked inside her headuntil she climbs out of a Scottish loch after a good swim and finds herself rather exposed to her new colleague.
Elias Khoury has wheedled his way into Professor Campbells circle under false pretenses: he did not come to Oxford to classify ancient artefacts, he is determined to take them back to his homeland in the Middle East. Winning Catrionas favor could be the key to his success. Unfortunately, seducing the coolly intense lady scholar quickly becomes a mission in itself and his well-laid plans are in danger of derailing...
Forced into close proximity in Oxfords hallowed halls, two very different people have to face the fact that they might just be a perfect match. Soon, a risky new game begins that asks Catriona one more time to put her heart and wildest dreams at stake.
