Romance Historical
Griffin Lockhart holds the key to his family's fate. Since
his brother Liam failed to reclaim the priceless heirloom
that could save their ancestral Scottish estate, it's now
up to Grif to find it -- among the lords and ladies of
fashionable London society.
Disguised as a Scottish earl, Grif attends the most
glittering balls, hunting for the woman who is rumored to
possess his family's treasure. Along the way he catches
the eye of Anna Addison, a highborn young woman whose
sharp tongue and even sharper wits have limited her
marital prospects but enable her to detect Grif's
deception. Determined to find a husband this season, Anna
draws Grif into a scandalous bargain: She will deliver his
precious heirloom -- and keep secret his true identity --
if Grif can teach her how to seduce a man and win his
heart. Well aware of what a man wants from a woman, Grif
reluctantly instructs her. Soon Anna is besieged by
suitors and Grif's exasperation with the troublesome
beauty turns into heated desire. With time running out,
Grif commits a reckless act in order to claim not only his
treasure, but the passionate woman he believes is his and
his alone.
