Only Matilda Halifax could turn Christians life so decidedly inside out-and only Matilda can persuade him that love just might be worth the risk...

"Hot, smart, funny, and charming as hell" - Alix E. Harrow on THE HALIFAX HELLIONS series. The final novella in Alexandra Vastis Halifax Hellions series. In 1811, Winifred Wallace told one lie. To secure her future as an independent sheep farmer, she invented an estranged husband named Mr. Spencer Halifax and forged their marriage record. Ten years later, her deception catches up with her: in the form of the disturbingly real, distressingly attractive earl on her doorstep. Spencer Halifax wants to set a good example for his beloved hellion sisters. Ever since their fathers death, hes tried to play the role of sensible earl - and involving himself with a felonious sheep farmer is decidedly not sensible. But Winnies passion and fierce self-reliance draws him in, even as her closely guarded secrets keep him out. When Spencer asks Winnie to travel with him to London to disentangle their semi-legal union, shes horrified. London is where her mother stole several lavish necklaces from noblemen. But she cannot pass up the chance to return the stolen jewelry. Though returning the gems is more difficult than Winnie imagined, and she soon realizes that the only way forward is to trust Spencer with the truth of her past. Even if doing so threatens their pretend marriage and the all-too-real feelings between them.
