Lady Marigold Smith, daughter of the Earl of Pomeroy and his last daughter to be married off, cannot find a man as intelligent as she is or who treats her like more than a featherheaded piece of fluff. So the spinster state is fine with her.
Jonathan, Lord Stanley, belongs to the same elite book club as Lady Marigold, who annoys him to no end. In his esteemed opinion, she is nothing more than a nonsensical chit who doesn’t deserve membership in their exclusive club.
When they both attempt to buy the same journal of a deceased member, a man well-respected in the science community, a tug of war begins. The battle for the book throws them into danger—and passion. Something neither of them expected.

Summary
From: Carol Pennington
Book Title: For the Love of the Baron
Book Author: Callie Hutton
What do you like about this book:
This is a Regency Romance with a twist. Lady Marigold has a mind of her own and doesn’t want to fit into the mold of a lady. She is determined to live her life as she likes and thus she believes she will become a spinster. Her love of anatomy lands her in an unexpected relationship with Jonathan. Their relationship begins precariously over a fight for a journal they both want. When the journal disappears and the previous owner is found dead, they work together to solve the mystery and end up falling in lust...could it turn to love?
I would recommend this book to the adult romance reader. It does have a couple of steamy scenes, so it is not suitable for a young reader. There are also some curse words and violence.
