The Man Is PracticalAs marriage proposals go, Charles Draysmith’s suit is as romantic as the moors in December. Emma Peterson might be only a vicar’s daughter, and he the new Marquis of Knightsdale, and perhaps he would rather marry her than endure the marriage mart. But when he suggests how much he’ll enjoy securing an heir, well, a lady can only endure so much. But The Lady Is PassionateThere’s …
But The Lady Is Passionate
There’s something about a woman throwing pottery at a man that piques his interest. Perhaps his proposal lacks grace, Charles thinks. But it does seem a perfect solution.

He will have to confess the truth to calm her down. And the truth is, he’s madly in love. . .

I like Sally MacKenzie’s books. They have just enough humor to not be stale and dry.
It was one of the funniest books I’ve read. Loved the story and am reading whole series now. Our hero continually bumbled through his proposals and her reactions were priceless. I loved that they put in what was going through their heads as well. I love the unusual Happy Endings
