For a shameless libertine and a wily smuggler in the London Underground, marriage is more than convenience—it’s strategy . . .
Christopher “Kit” Ellingsworth, war veteran and newly minted Earl of Blakemere, buries his demons under every sort of pleasure and vice. His scandalous ways have all but emptied his coffers . . . until a wealthy mentor leaves him a sizeable fortune. The only stipulation? He must marry within one monthto inherit the money. Kit needs a bride and the bold, mysterious Miss Tamsyn Pearce seems perfect.
Husband hunting isn’t Tamsyn’s top priority—she’s in London to sell her new shipment of illicit goods—but she’s desperate for funds to keep her smuggling operation afloat. When a handsome earl offers to wed her and send her back to Cornwall with a hefty allowance, Tamsyn agrees. After all, her secrets could land her in prison and an attentive, love-struck spouse could destroy everything.
But when an unexpected proviso in the will grants Tamsyn control of the inheritance, their arrangement becomes anything but convenient. Now, Kit’s counting on his countess to make his wildest dreams a reality and he plans to convince her, one pleasurable seduction at a time.

Review
5 Stars
Counting on a Countess by Eva Leigh is book Two in The London
Underground series. This is the story of Christopher “Kit” Ellingsworth
The Earl of Blakemere and Tamsyn Pearce. I have read the previous book
but feel this is easily a standalone book.
Tamsyn is in the smuggling business to help her Village and to try to buy the house that her Uncle is wanting to sell. The house is the best location for her smuggling business and doesn't want to loose it.
But she hasn't been able to sell her goods to get the money for the down payment for the house. Kit has been on a goal since getting out of the War to enjoy the pleasure of life to try and help him forget the pain. With an ideal to do a pleasure garden to help others he is at a lost of how to get the money when he is giving the chance to marry to inherit the much needed funds. Kit and Tamsyn come together to meet the goal of marrying to get the inheritance but they soon look learn that Tamsyn is the one put in charge of the money..which puts Kt to wooing her to try to get her to fund her dream garden. Tamsyn hasn't told law-biding Kit what she actually does nor that she wants some of that money to help her goal with her smuggling scene.
But along the way of them trying to get to their own personal goals they seem to have started to fall in love.
Really enjoyed this story!! This is a hard to put down book for sure!
