Review by Booklist Review

Before permanently parting ways, the earl of Marsden's latest mistress leaves him an unexpected parting gift, a baby. While there is no question that the girl is Mars' child, absolutely everyone questions whether Mars knows anything at all about caring for a baby. In desperation, Mars turns to the meddling matrons of Maidenshop, who convince him to hire Clarissa Taylor as Dora's nursemaid. Given their past history, Clarissa is the last person on earth Mars would ever wish to bring into his home, but Mars must admit Clarissa is perfectly suited for caring for his daughter. Now the question becomes can Mars and Clarissa maintain a civil working relationship, or will the past soon repeat itself? All of the literary hallmarks, including dryly witty dialogue, simmering sexual chemistry, and compelling characters, that readers have come to love and cherish in Maxwell's (Her First Desire, 2021) exemplary romances are front and center in the latest intensely sexy yet also sweetly romantic addition to her A Logical Man's Guide to Dangerous Women series.
