I found this book to be enjoyable and a good read

Why would a most independent young woman want to risk a second chance at love with a maddeningly arrogant nobleman? Clearly pleasing the Earl was out of the question. The Earl of Avescot made it absolutely clear that he considered Vanessa's management of her late husband's estate to be a total disaster. He made it equally evident that he viewed her methods of raising her children to be a sure prescription for ruination. He went on to establish without doubt that he believed her treatment of him as a guest to be the height of outrageous insolence. Vanessa told herself that she should have been overjoyed to have so displeased this man whose departure she so fervently longed for. The only question was: Why wasn't she....?I think it's a wonderful romance
