Books like A Breath of Scandal by Connie Mason
In "A Breath of Scandal," Lara, a half‑gypsy daughter of the Earl of Stanhope, finds a wounded stranger washed ashore on Scotland’s rugged coast. She becomes his secret husband under gypsy law, giving him protection while he becomes enchanted by her dark beauty. Julian Thornton, Earl of Mansfield, spends his days as a nobleman and his nights as a secret agent for the crown, sworn to never love another woman. When a mission goes wrong, Lara’s marriage to him is no longer a simple act of protection but a fierce entanglement of duty and desire. As the couple navigates the peril of his covert world, they must decide whether love can survive the threats that loom over them and whether Lara will ever truly surrender her heart to the man she married in secret.

Susanna Randall thought she knew everything there was to know about Edward Sutton the Earl of Langham, when she wed him. First, he was marrying for the fortune that her wealthy father pledged to him. Secondly, his devotion long had been claimed by the beautiful and aristocratic Julia Murray. But Susanna did not suspect the power that Langham had to stir her passion. Or the pain he could cause when he left her alone in a great London mansion. Now, she had a chance to end her ill-starred marriage. And she had an offer from the honourable and trustworthy Colonel Percy Fordyce to become his beloved wife. It should have been so easy to leave a man unworthy of her love for one who so deserved it. If only her foolish heart were not making it so hard....
