A Winter's Disgrace - Paperback

by Kathleen Buckley (Author)

Cyprian, a marquess's heir, will not let his mother choose his next bride. Leaving a house party in a blizzard to avoid her stratagems, he finds a woman trudging half frozen toward the London road. Rosamund fled disgrace hoping to reach the one person who might shelter her, but even if she reaches a coaching inn, she has too little coin to reach London. When a gentleman offers to take her to the nearest inn, can she trust him or will it lead to worse than lying down to sleep in a freezing thicket? The marquess will ensure his heir does not marry a woman with no dowry or connections...by any means necessary. A traditional romance: no explicit sex.
