Promised by Leah Garriot

 
Margaret Brinton had her heart broken once before and is determined that it not happen again.  She knows she must marry, but decided to marry someone she has no chance of falling in love with.  She sets her cap at a notorious libertine, Mr. Northam, but her plans are thwarted when Mr. Norton's cousin, Sir Williams,  steps in and asks for her hand instead.  Margaret finds Sir Williams condescending and high handed, but gradually lets him into her heart.

I found this title on the Proper Romance series website.  I am always on the lookout for truly clean historical romance, and this one fit the bill.  Although the plot is super predictable, the characters were well drawn, and it was not overly heavy handed with Christian platitudes.  I imagine I will be reading more by Leah Garriot in the future. (365 p. 2020)
