Lady Henrietta Zetland is definitely not looking for love again after being widowed so young. She cannot provide the heirs most husbands desire, so is quite happy to abandon the trappings of the ton and London Season for country life. Yet the moment she meets Marcus Duncan, the new Marquess Zetland, the passion she has long suppressed returns to life and overwhelms all good sense and propriety.

Becoming a Marquess is just what Marcus Duncan needs to save his crumbling Scottish estate. His travels to England to oversee his newly acquired estates, throws him into the path of his cousin’s widow. Marcus is instantly charmed by Henrietta and a passionate love affair ensues. The last thing he expects is to lose his heart and when he pushes for more, it is revealed they both have secrets that could separate them forever.

To Marry A Marchioness is book six in the Lords of London series by Tamara Gill. Gill is one of my very favorite authors and I instantly grab her books anytime they are published. Unfortunately, this book fell short for me. I felt like there was way too much sex and not enough plot depth. When a young maid is introduced into the mix,  I held my breath and hoped that she would be a pivotal figure to the plot. But no. She is just a maid. No villains, no danger…just a few rutting characters. I found myself disappointed in this one. It is well written in the sense that the characters wishes and thoughts are explained thoroughly; but there was no real hook and no plot twist. I am not giving up on Gill. She is truly a master writer. I just didn’t like this one too much.
