After making her dying mother a promise to take care of her
father, Madeline Applegate gave up her own happiness to
look after him and her sisters. When a tragic accident
leaves her father in a wheelchair, their financial
situation also changes. All of her younger sisters have
married, and Madeline is happy for them, never dwelling on
the outcome of her own life.
Viscount Weller, Adrian Cater, is being chased by his
crazed cousin. Dodging bullets has become tiresome and
Adrian is ready for it to end. When he discovers a
beautiful girl injured in the woods, he does everything he
can to help her. However, by morning they are discovered,
and in order to save the girl from ruin, Adrian declares
them betrothed.
Can Adrian convince Madeline to marry a man she does not
know, and accept the financial benefits he can offer her
now -- and following his death?
A LADY BETRAYED is a beautiful story of love and
commitment. Page after page, the characters come to life,
from the hero and heroine to the bitter neighbor. I really
like this addition to the Applegate Sisters series and I
highly recommend it. Also be sure to read SEDUCING SIR
OLIVER and LADY OF SCANDAL.
When Adrian Carter, Viscount Weller, comes across an
unconscious woman in the rain, his attempts to aid her
land them in a compromising position.
Now, with
her reputation ruined, Madeline has no choice but to
accept Adrian's marriage proposal-and face the secrets
from his past that could tear them apart forever.
