Romance Historical
Grand Passionβ¦or epic disaster? Lord Nevinstoke revels in acting the young wastrel, until his father is killed in a drunken duel. Never one to do anything halfway, Nev throws off his wild ways to shoulder a mountain of responsibilityβand debtβvowing to marry a rich girl and act the respectable lord of the manor. Manufacturing heiress Penelope Brown seems the perfect choice for a wife. Sheβs pretty, proper, and looking for a husband. Determined to rise above her common birth, Penelope prides herself on her impeccable behavior and good sense. Grand Passion? Vulgar and melodramatic. Yes, agreeing to marry Nev was a rare moment of impulse, yet sheβs sure they can build a good marriage based on companionship and mutual esteem. But when they arrive at the manor, theyβre overwhelmed with half-starved tenants, a menacing neighbor, and the family propensity for scandal. As the situation deteriorates, the newlyweds have nowhere to turn but to each other. To Penelopeβs surprise, she begins to fervently hope that her first taste of Grand Passion in her husbandβs arms wonβt be her last. First published by Dorchester in March 2010. Warning: Contains kisses in the breakfast room, account books in the bedroom...and murder in the garden. Featuring a heroine whoβs used to settling, a hero whoβs used to getting what he wants without trying, and a love for which theyβll both have to fight tooth and nail.
