Romancing the Monstrous Earl - Saranna Dewylde - Bog

Dear Lady Yvaine of Moray, It is with no great regret that Her Majesty informs you that after the unfortunate fencing incident with Lord Tyler, the stabbing of the younger Lord of Malay with a hat pin, and finally, the brawl with the Ladies Banning (including the Dowager), it is Her decree that you shall attend The Monsters Ball, and there you will find among them a husband to match your harridan, monstrous nature. Lady Yvaine of Moray maintains that the above incidents were not entirely her fault. She was cursed, you see. Not to be a hat pin weilding menace-although that is a plus in her book- but to be claimed by a low level demon who has bedeviled her since childhood. Her only way out: marry someone more villainous, who will send the fiend scurrying with his tail between his legs. Well, Lady Yvaine has never been one for half measures. So she sets her cap for the most villainous monster of them all. The grotesque Earl of Evernight, an impossibly large, horned beast with wings, claws, and a devil's tail. He's ruled his lands without question for a lifetime, but now the fates have come calling. To keep his claim on Evernight, he must marry and produce an heir. Mael will take her body and soul for his own, but didn't count on her heart. He's decided demons don't love, but Yvaine has never been one to back down from a challenge. This Season, place your bets at White's: Will this be a match made in Hell, or an epic love to defy even the stars (and Her Most Irritated Majesty)? This story is a stand alone novella-length novel set in the shared world of The Monsters Ball.
