The Inconvenient Marriage of Charlotte Beck
ByPublisher Description
Unlikely romance is sometimes just an inconvenient marriage away
Charlotte Beck may be entering adulthood, but she can’t seem to keep to her stubborn, independent spirit from bucking social protocol. Fed up with her behavior, Charlotte’s father Daniel pressures her to settle into a nice marriage despite knowing she is set on going to college. Then Daniel sees Charlotte with the handsome but annoying English astronomer Alex Hambly, and everything changes.
Though Alex and Charlotte can barely stand one another, Daniel offers them a deal they can’t refuse: if they agree to marry, he will save Alex’s family from financial ruin and grant Charlotte the freedom to go to college. Reluctantly the couple agrees, but in private they plot to annul the marriage as soon as possible.
But when Alex’s feelings change and he refuses to dissolve their contract, will Charlotte find a way out of her vows? Or will she discover that maybe this marriage isn’t so inconvenient after all?

“I actually didn't like this one as much as I enjoyed the other two books in the series. Charlotte annoyed me. She was a bit OVER the top when it came to her passion for the "boardroom". I liked Alex, and the way that he "handled" Charlotte...but he couldn't save it for me.
I think the book started very well...but I just kind of lost my love of it as it continued. I think it is a good story...but like I said. Certain things just rubbed me the wrong way about it.”
