Sally Cowan, Countess of Norwood, spent ten miserable years married to an overbearing oaf. Now sheโs free, she plans to have some fun. But before she kicks her heels up, this Dashing Widow sets out to launch her pretty, headstrong niece Meg into society and find her a good husband.
When rich and charming Sir Charles Kinglake gives every sign that he canโt get enough of Megโs company, Sally is delighted to play chaperone at all their meetings. Charles is everything thatโs desirable in a gentleman suitor. How disastrous, when over the course of the seasonโs most elegant house party, Sally realizes that desire is precisely the name of the game. Sheโs found her nieceโs perfect matchโbut she wants him for herself!
There are none so blind as those who will not seeโฆ
From the moment Sir Charles Kinglake meets sparkling Lady Norwood, heโs smitten. He courts her as a gentleman shouldโdancing with her at every glittering ball, taking her to the theatre, escorting her around London. Because sheโs acting as chaperone to her niece, that means most times, Meg accompanies them. The lack of privacy chafes a man consumed by desire, but Charlesโs intentions are honorable, and heโs willing to work within the rules to win the wife he wants.
However when he discovers that his careful pursuit has convinced Sally heโs interested in Meg rather than her, he flings the rules out the window. When love is at stake, who cares about a little scandal? Itโs time for charming Sir Charles to abandon the subtle approach and play the passionate lover, not the society suitor!
