The Countess and the Casanova
Tropes: friends to lovers, rake & wallflower, "teach me", road trip, curvy heroine, forced proximity
She wanted an adventure. He only wanted her.
Widowed at just twenty-four, Eleanor longs for more than the lonely, stifling life she’s endured. When her best friend—and London’s most notorious rake—proposes they pose as husband and wife to travel through Italy, Ellie seizes the chance to chase her dreams. But her heart has other plans, and asking Henry to teach her how to be a lover might risk the one thing she can’t bear to lose—him.
For Henry, Eleanor is the one temptation he’s never dared indulge. Charming society with his scandals is easier than confronting the guilt and shame that haunt his past. But pretending to be her husband awakens the hope he’s tried to bury—that she could one day love him back.
As their journey winds through Italy’s sun-drenched villas and moonlit canals, buried secrets rise to the surface, testing their trust and their love. Will their damaged hearts find the courage to heal, or will the past ruin their chance at happily ever after?
The Countess and the Casanova is a steamy, open-door historical romance filled with sparkling banter, sizzling chemistry, and the love that only best friends can find. Perfect for fans of Julia Quinn and Lisa Kleypas.
