Barely a Bride
Publisher Description
Can a lady tempt a Free Fellow to surrender his heart?
As a founding member of the Free Fellows League—a group of four gentlemen who signed a pledge to never wed when they were lads—Griffin, Viscount Abernathy, swears that he will put off marrying as long as possible. But when he is suddenly called off to war, he has no choice but to obey his father’s wishes and find a wife…
Just days later, he marries the lovely Lady Alyssa. For a man committed only to his freedom, she seems a perfect—and perfectly undemanding—bride. Intelligent and self-sufficient, Alyssa craves her independence just as much as Griffin loves his. But as the irresistible attraction between them flourishes with every look and touch, they discover there is something they desire even more than a loveless marriage of convenience—the passion they find in each other’s arms…
Book 1 of the “Free Fellows League” Series, which includes BARELY A BRIDE, MERELY THE GROOM, HARDLY A HUSBAND, TRULY A WIFE, A BACHELOR STILL and CLEARLY A COUPLE (a novella from TALK OF THE TON)

Customer Reviews
Good title.
Very well written. I myself do not like the x-rated parts. They tend to cheapen the story. Guess I come from a generation where what happens in the bedroom stays there. Leave the sex scenes to the imagination. Don’t know if I want to read he next book.
A Grand Tale
This is a finely crafted story and I enjoyed reading it immensely. The author is a very talented storyteller and I look forward to spending time immersed in her other imaginative tales.
Many twists and turns until HEA
This couple is perfect for each other, but refuses to see it. Being a member of the Free Society, Griff will not tell Alyssa he loves her. He’d rather set her free. Love the passion between them! Most importantly Alyssa’s strength and determination are the foundation of this book.
