The Unlikely Lady by Valerie Bowman
Publisher: St. Martin Press (May 20015)
Series: Playful Brides, 3
Genre: Historical 

Blurb:

FOR THE BACHELOR AND THE BLUESTOCKING…
Certain that no man wants a bluestocking for a wife, Miss Jane Lowndes is careful to wield her books and her spectacles as weapons against matrimony. Convincing her ambitious mama that she’s content to stay a spinster is easier said than done, however. It’s a good thing Jane is not above a bit of manufactured scandal if it will keep her from the altar, and the argumentative, contrary Lord Garrett Upton… 
ROMANCE IS NEVER BY THE BOOK
With the war over, Garrett is determined to enjoy his bachelor’s life while he can, even when it means attending a house party in celebration of a friend’s wedding—and suffering Jane’s notorious disdain. But when a masquerade ball leads to a mistaken kiss, he’s surprised to learn that Jane’s bookish exterior hides a truly passionate soul. When two such headstrong people are determined to remain unattached, can love lead to a happy ending?

Why?

I love the blue of her dress and I'm excited about Jane's and Garrett story. Here's why throughout the whole series you see these two at each others throat. So, I CAN'T WAIT for this story. What are you lusting?
