Beginning of great series, now in paperback
THE PROPOSAL Gwendoline, Lady Muir, has seen her
share of tragedy, especially since a freak accident took her
husband much too soon. Content in a quiet life with friends
and family, the young widow has no desire to marry again.
But when Hugo, Lord Trentham, scoops her up in his arms
after a fall, she feels a sensation that both shocks and
emboldens her. Hugo never intends to kiss Lady Muir, and frankly, he judges
her to be a spoiled, frivolous—if beautiful—aristocrat. He
is a gentleman in name only: a soldier whose bravery earned
him a title; a merchant’s son who inherited his wealth. He
is happiest when working the land, but duty and title now
demand that he finds a wife. He doesn’t wish to court Lady
Muir, nor have any role in the society games her kind
thrives upon. Yet Hugo has never craved a woman more; Gwen’s
guileless manner, infectious laugh, and lovely face have
ruined him for any other woman. He wants her, but will she
have him? The hard, dour ex-military officer who so gently carried
Gwen to safety is a man who needs a lesson in winning a
woman’s heart. Despite her cautious nature, Gwen cannot
ignore the attraction. As their two vastly different worlds
come together, both will be challenged in unforeseen ways.
But through courtship and seduction, Gwen soon finds that
with each kiss, and with every caress, she cannot resist
Hugo’s devotion, his desire, his love, and the promise of
forever.
