One haunting kiss can derail the best laid plans…
Having fulfilled a promise to entertain suitors for a Season, Annette Apsley is proud to have escaped the London Marriage Mart and kept her ambition for independence intact. So, when her father invites the frustratingly handsome Lieutenant Paget to their country estate, she’s determined to evade him at all cost…especially since they’ve already shared one passionate kiss.
After years of witnessing the injustice of the slave trade while in the Royal Navy, Edward Paget is determined to fight for abolition. Lacking the proper funds and support from his family, his only chance of propagating change is to accept a challenge from Viscount Paxton: convince his eldest daughter to the altar, and he’ll match the value of her dowry.
Wooing Miss Apsley proves more difficult and intriguing than Edward expects since the stubborn redhead is nothing like the sophisticated lady he remembers from London. But as Annette slowly warms to his attention, Edward fears she will discover her father’s scheme and he’ll lose the one thing that has become more precious to him than any sum—her heart.
