Sebastian Hewel has made his career playing the female heroines on the Elizabethan stage. But when his cousin shows up to ask for his help taking on a similar role, he is unsure if it is worth the risk. Sebastian's sister, Bronwyn, has run off and eloped, leaving her arranged marriage to Lord Crofton in the balance. If Sebastian were to take her place, even just for a short while, he could likely pay off his father's debts and restore the Hewel family name. But when he reluctantly agrees, he is surprised when Lord Crofton--Anthony--recognizes him from his time on the stage. The two enter a mutually agreeable arrangement. But with Anthony's past as a philanderer, is Sebastian risking more than just his head if he gets caught? And would that be worse than a broken heart? (

Forced marriage trope.
The only problem with single person POV is that you never truly know the other MCs motivations. Consequently Anthony comes off as an uncaring cad for much of the story. (
