A Week to Be Wicked

In the delightful Regency-era world of Spindle Cove, Minerva Highwood, a brilliant but socially awkward lady scientist, finds herself entangled with Colin Sandhurst, the Marquis of Анаcrеon, a charming and notoriously restless lord. Desperate to escape a forced marriage, Minerva schemes to elope to Scotland, needing a male escort for the journey. Unexpectedly, Colin, equally eager to flee the sleepy seaside resort and avoid a scandal of his own, agrees to accompany her. What begins as a practical arrangement quickly blossoms into a witty and passionate road trip filled with unexpected dangers, comedic mishaps, and undeniable chemistry. As they travel, Minerva's scientific curiosity clashes with Colin's roguish charm, forcing them to confront their preconceived notions and the scandalous secrets they both harbor. Their journey north becomes a week-long odyssey of self-discovery, forbidden desire, and the intoxicating realization that the most wicked adventures can lead to the truest love.
