Synopsis

A beautifully told Regency tale about second chances for love....

When Wilhelmina Turner’s younger sister runs off with a young Lothario, she has no choice but to turn to the notorious rake who broke his promise and her heart, for assistance. George Bartlett, the Marquess of Chesterton, hasn’t forgotten the woman who hurt him so many years ago, but can’t deny her request, knowing that his brother’s reputation and fortune is at risk.

A series of misfortunes leave the straight-laced widow and committed bachelor stranded, sharing both close quarters and old secrets. But when morning comes, will this unlikely pair find a second chance at love?

     “My sister is missing,” she answered firmly.
      “Mrs. Turner,” Chesterton continued, looking around at the number of servants who’d begun accumulating in the hall. “Perhaps we can find a more private location in which to continue this conversation? If you’d be so kind as to follow me into a drawing room, I’ll have Cook make up some refreshments—”
      She stomped her foot. “I don’t want refreshments! I want to know what you’ve done with Kitty, you bastard!”
      Chesterton’s brows furrowed. “As much as I’ve hoped there might be a question of my parentage, unfortunately it is not so. I am without a doubt my father’s son, no matter how I wish it weren’t so. And I am afraid you are also mistaken about the whereabouts of your sister. I don’t even know a woman named Kitty.” His voice was calm, the icy civility of his tone raking over her like a cold wind off the Irish Sea.
      She refused to allow him to diffuse yet another situation with his easy charm and good looks. This was her sister, and granted that ridiculous girl had been a pain in her arse since the day she was born, but she was just that, her pain in the arse, and it was her duty to keep her safe. Even if that meant confronting the devil himself.
      Or worse, Lord Chesterton.
