Romance Historical
Previously available as A Secret Desire. In Shakespearean London, falling in love just became the
greatest scandal of all... Just when Leo, Baron Warhurst, thinks his family’s financial
situation can’t get any worse, he discovers that his unwed
sister is pregnant. The Warhurst estate is already crumbling
thanks to Leo’s father’s numerous indiscretions, and unless
Leo can prevent another scandal from erupting before he
makes a fortuitous match with a wealthy heiress, his family
will be ruined. Such are the dire straits that bring the
ruthless young nobleman to the White Swan Inn, where he must
suffer the indignity of asking a common seamstress for help
spying on his sister’s lover. Yet Alice Croft is anything but common. She is low-born,
yes, but also strong-willed, clever, confident, and bears a
luminous beauty Leo cannot ignore. Inexorably drawn to her,
he knows that even the rumor of a liaison between them could
ruin his marriage prospects. But the harder he fights
against her, the stronger their attraction grows—until Leo
is forced to choose between the woman who stole his heart
and the family that demands his honor. In this unforgettable follow-up to Her Secret Life,
Lord Warhurst’s turbulent love story unfolds with all the
wit, passion, and drama that C. J. Archer’s growing legion
of fans have come to expect.
