Four weeks to secure an English husband. One infuriating Scottish duke determined to ruin her plans.

Lady Amelia refuses to let her future be decided for her. After her father's death, her American uncle expects to take her across the Atlantic and keep her under his guardianship. But England is the only home Amelia has ever known, and she has no intention of leaving it.

Given four weeks to settle her affairs, she devises a scandalous solution. She'll compromise a suitable English lord, make marriage all but inevitable, and secure her future before her uncle can whisk her away.

Unfortunately, the Duke of Goldstone keeps getting in the way.

Arrogant, devilishly handsome, and entirely too Scottish, Goldstone has an infuriating habit of appearing just when Amelia's carefully laid schemes are about to succeed. Every ruined opportunity leads to another heated argument, and every argument leaves her more dangerously attracted to the man she's determined to despise.

Goldstone is everything Amelia doesn't want in a husband. He's stubborn, maddeningly confident, and seems to take particular pleasure in thwarting her plans. Yet beneath their constant sparring lies an attraction neither can ignore. Soon, Amelia discovers that the gentleman causing her the most trouble may be the only one capable of stealing her heart.

With her deadline approaching and her plans unraveling, Amelia must choose between pursuing the marriage she thinks will save her future and risking everything on the Scottish duke she never intended to love.

A scandalous scheme, a battle of wills, and a Scottish duke who might just prove that love is worth ruining every plan.

Scandalous Endeavors is Book One in the Ladies and Scoundrels series by USA Today bestselling author Amanda Mariel. This steamy Victorian enemies-to-lovers romance delivers witty banter, a strong-willed heroine, and a happily ever after worth fighting for.
