The Rakehell of Roth by Amalie Howard
Overview
As owner of the most scandalous club in London, the last thing the notorious Marquess of Roth wants is a wife. Keeping up his false reputation as a rake brings in the clients with the deepest pockets—money he needs to fund a noble cause. Even though everything inside tells him not to leave his beautiful, innocent wife behind at his country estate...he must.
But three years later, tired of her scoundrel of a husband headlining the gossip rags, Lady Isobel Vance decides enough is enough. She is no longer a fragile kitten, but as the anonymous author of a women’s sexual advice column, she’s now a roaring tigress...and she can use her claws.
Isobel decides to go to him in London, channeling her powers of seduction to make him beg to take her back. But she didn’t expect her marauding marquess to be equally hard to resist. Now the game is on to see who will give in to the other first, with both sides determined like hell to win.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The notorious Marquess of Roth never wanted to get married but agrees to marry Lady Isobel Vance to protect her from a former gross peer.
After their wedding night, he slips away back to London leaving his new wife behind at his father's estate. This way he'll never get attached because he can't be what she needs.
Three years later, Isobel is still leaving apart from her husband and learning of all his exploits via the gossip rags. When the latest piece arrives she decides enough is enough and heads to London to win her husband back by channeling Lady Darcy, a persona she and her best friend created in order to write a bawdy advice column.
I loved this so much. Especially Isobel's overall growth from when we first met her in the Beast of Beswick.
Oh man, and every time Winter ordered her to leave, I'd feel the sting and wonder what she would do next to get her husband's attention.
Do we get a Westmore book next?
