If you love Lenora Bell and Tessa Dare, you’ll love the

next book in New York Times bestselling author Cathy Maxwell’s Logical

Man’s Society series about a delicious battle of the sexes between a determined

woman and a stubborn gentleman.

She arrived in town, beautiful and bold and declaring that

she’s inherited property that that he

has already claimed! As a member of the local Logical Men’s Society, Ned

Thurlowe prides himself on thinking clearly and calmly at all times. And it’s

clear that the meeting place of the society—a local tavern—is his even if the

men have turned it to shambles.

But Ned’s claim is challenged Gemma Estep, who’s announced

she’s decided to turn it into some sort of respectable tea garden for the local

ladies. Ned challenges Gemma, and in doing so behaves most illogically, for

though he wants to dismiss her, he also can’t help but desire her.

Gemma has had enough of men telling her what to do, and

she’s vowed to make her own way in the world. And Ned Thurlowe is ruining her

plans. Not only has he laid claim to her property, pitting them in a heated

fight for its ownership, he’s also arousing in her feelings she’s never sensed

before.

And although they argue, they quickly discover they

have more in common than they’d each ever dreamed—could their disagreement be

turning into desire?
