Love in the Wager (Women of Worth #4)

An arranged marriage. A tormenting neighbor. 

When Lydia's father tells her he's obtained a husband for her, Mr. Thornton, she doesn't know whether to laugh or cry. She had only met the man once before, and he had immediately left her stranded in a ballroom after asking her to dance. How could she marry a man who already deemed her forgettable

Left without a choice, Lydia finds herself married soon after to Mr. Thornton, and she's immediately whisked off to his country estate, leaving behind everything and everyone she knows. Throwing herself into seeing to the needs of her new home, she determines to make herself useful and discover something she might have in common with her husband.

But when someone starts leaving threatening notes on their door, Lydia and her new husband must work together to determine who is in danger—and how they will save them.
