From a dazzling new voice in historical fiction comes a
pair of mismatched lovers who find themselves caught in a
most scandalous position.
Miss Gail Alton
is not having a good day. Or a good year. First, her new
stepmother strong-arms her into attending the Season as a
foil to her beautiful sister Evangeline. Then, while
riding her mare in the park, she gets toppled by a stuffy,
self-important, too-handsome-by-half "gentleman" who has
the audacity to blame her for their fall into the chilly
lake! Little does she know that the very same man will
soon be found in a compromising position with Gail's
sister.
Forced into asking for Evangeline's
hand in marriage, Maximillian, Viscount Fontaine, can't
take his mind off the irksome girl who threw him from his
horse and who can match wits with him at every turn. He's
determined to follow through with his best intentions, yet
he can't deny that every encounter with Gail makes him
want to cast propriety aside-and whisk away the sister of
his soon-to-be bride.
