What to expect: Witty banter and laugh-out-loud scenes, a bluestocking heroine who meets her match, a fake engagement, and a Christmas party that changes everything.

Celebrated adventurer Ethan Burnell is keen to return to the jungles of Mexico.

Settling down isn't part of his plan.

But his sister has other ideas, throwing a Christmas houseparty filled with eager debutantes.

The answer? A fake engagement for the duration of the festivities!

With her name mired in scandal, Cornelia Mortmain's marriage prospects are nil.

Burnell is exactly the sort of 'dangerous man' she's sworn off, and posing as his fiancée can only spell trouble.

Or, make her so notorious she'll become irresistible.

Can they convince everyone they're madly in love?

The game is on!
