TWO DIFFERENT CLASSES, ONE COMMON DESIRE... Lady Bernadette
Marie Burton may be the richest widow in England, but like
her dreams of finding true passion, her reputation is
deteriorating. Cruel gossip, loneliness and hoards of
opportunistic suitors have her believing Society couldn't be
more vile...or dangerous. So when an attacker threatens her
life, she finds safety in the most unseemly of places: the
arms of a mysterious, Irish-American gang leader. His
fortune stolen, young Matthew Joseph Milton is done playing
the respectable gentleman. In the slums of New York, only
ruffians thrive. But from the moment he arrives in London
and encounters the voluptuous Lady Bernadette, he can't help
but wonder about the finer pleasures he's missing. Or just
how much he's willing to risk-not only to bed her, but to
prove his worth....
