Marriage of Convenience * Little Sister * Spare turned Heir

The Earl of Standish couldn't have a worse name. He's not in good standing anywhere, but with luck and the right bride, that should all change...

As the Duke of Crossing’s overlooked daughter, Lady Marigold Hathaway’s prospects are limited, at best. So when Lord Standish comes to her with a shocking proposition, she can’t help but consider it.

When everyone has always wanted her older sister, why would this handsome earl suddenly want her? And does it matter, seeing as she was halfway to falling in love with him anyway?

Hanover Square Spare was initially titled, Earl of Standish, and was published on Jan.3, 2023, in Wicked Earls Forever. This edition includes exclusive bonus content and is book 1 of Annabelle Anders’ newest series, Rakes of Rotten Row.

I enjoyed this book. This book is special because it features a wonderfully curvy heroine named Goldie. I loved the way she had held a torch for the hero Reed. How relatable is it to be the girl that the “guy” doesn’t really notice? And then he does. ““Goldie,” he breathed, trailing his mouth over her chin, down her neck, and to her chest. Like a drowning man, he inhaled her essence. Clean, warm, vanilla-scented woman. Saying goodbye was all wrong. If he’d met her under different circumstances – if he wasn’t on the precipice of utter ruin…She could have been his.” I highly recommend this shorter book. It is a great afternoon read. Another enjoyable romance by this author.
