Delphine Delacroix has lived the life of bird in a gilded cage, kept in a stately home with only her cold autocratic mother for company. At her mother’s death, she finds herself to be a wealthy woman and comes to London to be fretted over by her three maternal aunts determined to have her marry well. But Delphine feels she is once more having to hand herself over to another’s will and seeks to be the mistress of her own destiny.
But she recognizes she has none of the skills needed to steer herself through the shoals of fortune hunters who wish to marry her. Aware of her own naivety and not trusting her aunts, she recruits a rake to help her. Viscount Titus Gascoigne is her choice, and he agrees, but will their dangerous agreement prosper? Or will it be discovered and prove scandalous?

I would have liked more interactions between the main characters themselves, but this book was both touching & funny.
Narration: It hasn't kept me from listening to the book a second time, but I didn't really enjoy it.
Content Notes: This book is clean, but it is a regency and contains references to many of the vices common to the time.

Gascoigne, himself trapped by debt, could really use the help of an heiress' fortune. However, Delphine, though inexperienced, is not naive & decides to initiate a *mutually* beneficial relationship instead.
What follows is funny, sweet, & occasionally dangerous. Gascoigne is helping the Snow Queen thaw, but there's honesty and then there's honesty - and a few ice shards remain in case she needs to protect herself.
This relatively short novella moves at a brisk pace, and is so entertaining along the way, that I reached the happily-ever-after almost before I knew it.
While there were a few points where the plot was a bit weak & the "working" relationship stopped too soon to fully, effectively support their friends to lovers romance, it was still so well done that I barely noticed as I was reading & only noted it more upon reflection after I had finished the book.
Romance level: sweet kisses
Religion: a few uses of the Lord's Name in vain, sadly including an unnecessary use of cursing in God's Name
Language: a handful of d*mn's + a h*ll or two
4.5 stars - a Regency snow queen fairytale
