Eve Faraday suffered from being too sensible, practical,
intelligent and in her own words rather brown. As a slightly
built young woman she saw herself as someone who escapes
notice. Until a ravishingly handsome, virile gentlemen cuts
a path through the partygoers straight to Eve -- much to her
amazement. Aubrey Ashford certainly had tongues wagging and
women vying for his attention but for some reason he only
had eyes for Eve. Practical -- sensible Eve worked hard to
avoid the temptation of being swept away by a man surely
conjured up by her dreams but Aubrey was boldly staking his
claim and at every chance once again proposed marriage. Well
what's a girl to do -- say yes of course. But Eve couldn't
rid herself of some lingering doubts about why someone so
grand would choose someone so brown. Was she being paranoid
or was there perhaps something sinister that Aubrey was
hiding. Eve's mission was to get to the bottom of it no
matter the consequences -- even if the truth broke her heart.
Falling in love should feel like enchantment and Edith
Layton's love story of Eve and Aubrey has you believing that
true love can beat all odds. The question is who is
enchanted by who in this fantasy romance -- the winsome
lovely lady or the extraordinarily handsome gentleman. The
answer will surprise and delight you as will this lovely book.
Though Eve Faraday was beautiful and intelligent, she never
expected to be wooed by the devastatingly handsome and
utterly charming Aubrey Ashford, the most eligible bachelor
in all of London. Skeptical of the sudden attention, she
tries hard to avoid temptation, but the alluring Aubrey—and
his kisses—prove impossible to resist! She accepts his
offer of marriage and moves with him to his ancestral home
at Fair Isle. But after such a whirlwind courtship and
lightning-quick marriage, Eve begins to wonder if she
really knows Aubrey at all. There is something mysterious,
something magical and primeval about her new husband . . .
Aubrey is not who he appears to be—that much is
certain. But his feelings for Eve are true. And only when
he reveals his astonishing secret will Eve realize that she
and Aubrey might have a chance at a love that will last
forever . . .
