Good book. A romantic "who done it" set in Regency England.
From the back of the book:
"COURTING DANGER
Lady Evelyn Darlington's first love was the law. But since a woman scholar meets nothing but ridicule from men, she has given up and chosen a future husband. Randolph seems adequate for the task: to provide intelligent conversation and not annoy her too much. Of course, before they can be engaged, she'll have to do something about the murder charge hanging over his head. If only London's top barrister wasn't Jack Harding, object of all her unattainable girlhood fantasies...
AND SEDUCING SCANDAL...
Jack Harding remembers Evelyn well -- but the idea that the gorgeous woman standing before him is little Evie, the professor's daughter, is incredible. He knows better than to enter a business relationship when he wants to pursue pleasure. Yet however desirable she is now, Evie is still Evie -- stubborn, smart, and never willing to take no for an answer. Even though proving her fiance's innocence might just cost her her own..."
