Book Description
Finding love amongst the ton is a rare feat… …finding a virgin husband is surely impossible. Lady Charlotte Dunford will marry for love, or not marry at all. Finding a husband shouldn’t be difficult, not with her beauty, wealth and spirit. She’s already caught the eye of several gentlemen, including her brother’s friend Archie, whose pious nature hides a sparkling wit and an uncanny ability to draw out her secrets. Including the biggest secret of all… her future husband must be a virgin. An impossible condition for the gentlemen of the ton… except for Archie, who can fulfill all her demands. Archibald Turner has secrets of his own. His older brother is hidden away, dying of a disease that will ruin their family name. When the axe falls, he’ll need his friends to stand by him. He’s dedicated himself to becoming the perfect gentleman. He never drinks, never gambles, never cusses. And he’s never lain with a woman. But beneath the perfect façade is a wildly passionate man who desires the one thing he cannot have. His best friend’s little sister. Archie is certain Charlotte will despise him when she learns the truth of his legacy. But will she give up on the man she loves… the father of her unborn child?

Orphaned heiress Olivia de Vere should have the world--or at least the men of the ton--at her feet. But when she's thrown out of a young ladies' academy, Olivia doubts she'll ever find someone who will love her, rather than her bank account. To make matters worse, her dissolute cousin Felix is determined to marry her against her wishes. A virtual prisoner in her guardians' London townhouse, Olivia can’t help but develop a tendre for her neighbor, a handsome Scottish marquess. Battle-scarred in more ways than one, Hamish MacQueen, Lord Sleat, has braved many dangers in life.

Just in the nick of time his pretty neighbor appears, offering to act as a nursemaid for the young girl on their journey to his estate in Scotland. He suspects she has her own reasons for wanting to flee the country… The close traveling quarters leads to a fierce attraction between Olivia and Hamish that seems impossible to resist. But when ghosts from the past and monsters from the present threaten to tear them apart, will their unlikely love survive?
