Books like Lady Sarah's Charade by Nancy Richards-Akers
Sarah Clement‑Brooke lives in a "grace and favour" apartment at Hampton Court and is more interested in the ghosts that are said to haunt her than in love. Determined to stay single, she resists the pressure to marry. When her clever aunt introduces her to the proud Earl of Radnor, Sarah declares she will outwit the arranged partnership. She and the earl agree to pretend they are courting so that neither will be forced into a marriage.
The duo's mock courtship quickly turns perilous as both sense a growing affection toward each other. The fear of accidentally falling in love threatens to derail Sarah's carefully plotted revenge against the system that seeks to bind her, as the ghostly haunting of her home conflicts with the very real attraction that develops between her and the Earl.
