The Countess Conspiracy by Courtney Milan

Synopsis

Sebastian has built a scandalous reputation as a genius scientist lecturing on reproduction and heredity — except he isn’t the one doing the research. His childhood best friend and next-door neighbor Violet, a widowed countess, is the real scientist behind his work, publishing through him because no one would take a woman’s research seriously otherwise. When Sebastian decides he’s done being the public face for her discoveries, their carefully balanced friendship — and the secret garden path between their two houses — is thrown into question.
