Book description
Handsome and wealthy Lord Christopher Highclare made it painfully
clear why he was asking a virtual nobody like Miss Louisa Cherington
to be his wife. He had made a promise to her dying brother to do so
and was honour-bound to keep that vow. Proud and beautiful Louisa made
it just as clear why she was accepting this man who not only made no
pretence of loving her, but made no secret of the ravishing woman who
was his mistress. Louisa, too, was bowing to the wishes of her late
brother, who wanted to rescue her from poverty and the peril of
Captain Geoffrey Lawrence, the notorious rake who was in hot pursuit
of her. Thus these two were bound to marry Â- and bound to wonder what
would happen.
As the daughter of an officer in the Royal Air Force, Sandra Heath
has travelled and lived in various parts of Europe. She now lives in
Gloucestershire with her family.
